What method do you use when you want to get performance data about specific code paths? Motti This method has several limitations, but I still find it very useful. I'll list the limitations (I know of) up front and let whoever wants to use it do so at their own risk. The original version I posted over-reported time spent in recursive calls (as pointed out in the comments to the answer). It's not thread safe, it wasn't thread safe before I added the code to ignore recursion and it's even less thread safe now. Although it's very efficient if it's called many times (millions), it will have a

Is there any way to manage code snippets with backup for the database and code highlighting in Notepad++?

In spirit of the existing "what's your most useful C/C++ snippet" - thread: Do you guys have short, monofunctional Python snippets that you use (often) and would like to share with the StackOverlow Community? Please keep the entries small (under 25 lines maybe?) and give only one example per post. I'll start of with a short snippet i use from time to time to count sloc (source lines of code) in python projects: # prints recursive count of lines of python source code from current directory # includes an ignore_list. also prints total sloc import os cur_path = os.getcwd() ignore_set = set(["_
