just for fun, i tried this. what i tried
inserting PROFILE_PUBLISHER=var/profile.log in my start
and also export PROFILE_PUBLISHER=var/profile.log
profiling is enabled. but there's no profile.log in var
The profiling information is accumulated in memory until Zope is shutdown (via the control panel). When you go to the Control Panel and click shutdown, the profile.log will be written.
Visiting the debug section of the control panel, visit the profile tab. You'll see profiling information on that screen.
The next trick is making sense out of it... but let's get you set up first.
yes - i see stuff. care to help me make some sense?

Zope profiling just uses the Python profiler (with some extra machinery to deal with thread issues). You can use the Python profiler docs to learn to read the output: http://www.python.org/doc/current/lib/module-profile.html Brian Lloyd brian@digicool.com Software Engineer 540.371.6909 Digital Creations http://www.digicool.com
