Sounds like you don't really need to profile that, but if you did, Python's a great language for knocking together that kind of test harness; combine the time, random and csv modules and you've got a "big fat lumps every now and then" simulation. (At which point I get jumped on by the serious model types for being so blase with their discipline!) TJG -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
