Simple decorator to wrap a function and print out some basic profiling information.

timed.py

def timed(f):
	import cProfile, pstats, StringIO
	def wrap(*args):
		#start profiling
		pr = cProfile.Profile()
		pr.enable()

		#execute function
		ret = f(*args)

		#stop profiling and print results
		pr.disable()
		s = StringIO.StringIO()
		sortby = 'cumulative'
		ps = pstats.Stats(pr, stream=s).sort_stats(sortby)
		ps.print_stats()
		print s.getvalue()

		return ret
	return wrap
