Hi everyone,

Where can I find a concrete example on how to profile the gnuradio code in Python?

My PC is Linux 2.6.35-32-generic-pae #67-Ubuntu SMP Mon Mar 5 21:23:19 UTC 2012 i686 GNU/Linux. I use Ubuntu 10.10 and Xeon W3530.

I can use Kcachegrind to profile code written in C++. But when I profile python code(e.g., dial_tone.py), there is no profile data output.

address@hidden:~/Public$ valgrind --tool=callgrind ./dial_tone.py

address@hidden:~/Public$ ls -l

drwxr-xr-x 25 yangqing yangqing 4096 2012-08-27 00:23 oprofile

Then I try Oprofile, but also failed :(

I can't find my thread of dial_tone.py. I guess I use Oprofile in the wrong way, could you give me some tips?
