Node execution time, total execution time

[cesare.caoduro]

Good morning forum.
I am looking for some suggestion on how to perform some diagnostic around execution time:

• Single node execution time
• Total workflow execution time
• It has to work on both GH environment and GH Player
• Ideally we want to pull as many information as we can
• Third party packages used

We have already an extension in Dynamo that does exactly this, logging all the execution data we in a database. We would like to achieve a consistent result in GH, to be able to compare the adoption/usage of both platforms.

Can someone suggest from where to start or a documentation we can look at? Also if there will be changes coming with GH2.
I am sure someone has done this already…
Thanks in advance

If you want something partially done: Pancake | Food4Rhino (but it won’t run with GH player)

In short, for timing, you can read the profiler property of components. For third-party analysis, you need to enumerate over document objects.

I once scripted one very basic profiler, just in case you need to implement it differently:

here is a small script. It filters troublemakers. If you know its name you can use rightclick-find functionality to get its location: [Canvas%20at%2016%3B38%3B58] findBottleNeck.gh (10.4 KB) Code: var activeObjects = GrasshopperDocument.ActiveObjects(); // get all active objects var results = new Dictionary<string, double>(); for (int i = 0; i < activeObjects.Count; i++) // for each active object... { IGH_ActiveObject ao = activeObjects[i] as IGH_ActiveObject; results.Add(string.Format…
