About gmon.out for profiling

[Baskaran Sankaran]

Hi,

I have two questions regarding the profiling. My python version
automatically generates gmon.out for every script that I run and so I guess
that it must have been compiled with the appropriate option.

Firstly, it is not clear to me how I can use this. I've used python with
-cprofile switch and I wonder if they give different information.

Secondly, I would like to know how I can disable the generation of gmon.out.
Sometimes it is plain annoying to have these files in different places.

I would appreciate suggestions on both questions.

Thanks
