Subject: [Speed] Disable timelines by default?
Message-ID: <20130417214023.054c1644@fsol>


Hello,

I get routinely annoyed by the "timelines" feature of perf.py. At best,
it makes benchmarking slower because it requests a short URL for each
benchmark. At worse, it can crash the benchmark suite when the Web
service fails to respond. Could we disable the timelines by default?

Regards

Antoine.

Sounds reasonable to me, I don't htink I've ever used that feature.

Alex

I like that feature though I wouldn't mind too much if it went below the
fold as an optional feature. Anyhow, I opened issue
17785<http://bugs.python.org/issue17785> to
change the shortener to a faster service, which should make the feature
less annoying to people who don't use it.
