By printing a message followed by exit(0) just before the program was about to start doing its thing. Then I timed that using: $time python program.py in Linux. But this was hardly necessary as it was so obvious: it takes 150ms to process a 300-pixel image, 20 seconds for a 2Mpixel one, and (I have to switch to PyPy here as I've never had time to hang about for it) 180 seconds for 80Mpixel file. Surely the start-up time would be the same no matter what the input. -- Bartc
