Write cProfile stats to human-readable text file

cprofile-output.py

import cProfile
import pstats

prof = cProfile.Profile()
prof.run('<YOUR CODE>')
prof.sort_stats('cumtime')
prof.dump_stats('output.prof')

stream = open('output.txt', 'w')
stats = pstats.Stats('output.prof', stream=stream)
stats.sort_stats('cumtime')
stats.print_stats()

I had to leave out line 6 for my code to work.

@jeffxhansen it worked for me - the line for input stream seems to be missing
