Profiling and speed up

[Franz Steinhaeusler]

Hi Newsgroup,


I'm looking for a way to measure the performance of an app,
which is built in wxPython and uses the styled text control

Then after discovering some bottlenecks, to speed up things;
first of all minimize the startup time.
and then speed up the stc.

Someone is experienced and could show me a way or give me tips?
Are there some tools in python (beside of the profile module),
best if it would be graphical like performance analysis from DevPartner
for Visual C++?

Second question: python has a kind of garbage collector.
But could it be, because of some bad programming style, 
that memory is wasted more and more?

Many thanks in advance!
