Working on Python benchmarking

[tleeuwenburg at gmail.com]

Hi there...

I'm working on a package to provide python benchmarking (profiling and
analysis over time). The idea is to provide a decorator which can be
applied to unit tests which will cause the system to be profiled while
running those tests. The idea would be that any existing set of unit
tests could easily be selectively turned into a benchmarking suite by
the simple application of a decorator. An analysis module would
provide an instant picture of system performance while under test.

I have a basic package which provides the decorator, but have not yet
begun work on a module to provide an effective analysis of results.

I was wondering if anyone had already done any work in this space, and
would like to exchange some ideas? If anyone is interested, I have the
code hosted and can share it, but it's embarassingly primitive so I
don't really want to say I've done anything fantastic just yet! I just
wouldn't mind bouncing ideas around...

Cheers,
