The documentation at
https://docs.python.org/3.2/library/profile.html
contains the sentence
For example, if
your_integer_time_func() returns times
measured in thousands of seconds, you would construct the
Profile
instance as follows:
"thousands of seconds" should ISTM be "thousandths of a second".
There is essentially the same thing in the Python 2 docs at
https://docs.python.org/2/library/profile.html
viz.
For
example, if the timer returns times measured in
thousands of
seconds, the
time unit would be
.001.
Just trying for perfection!
