Removing hotshot profiler?
I vaguely recall some discussion about removing hotshot in favor of a better maintained profiler that has better thread support as well. Does anyone remember the decision? I don't see anything about it in PEP 4 or the Python 3000 PEPs I checked. -Fred -- Fred Drake <fdrake at acm.org>

There was discussion, but I don't think a specific resolution was reached (could be wrong). -Brett
Fred, Search the python-3000 archives for a subject started by Neal Norwitz in late August with a subject of "what to do with profilers in the stdlib". I was the one who suggested removing hotshot (Armin's cprofile covers basically the same ground). Skip
