Profile a script to get a list of all function calls sorted by cumulative time:

python3 -B -m cProfile -s cumtime ./thescript.py

Debug a script:

python3 -B -m pdb ./thescript.py

This will throw you into the debugger right from the start. c<enter> will run the script. If it encounters an error, you will be back in the debugger and be able to examine local variables.

Debug a script with a breakpoint:

python3 -B -m pdb -c 'b some_module.py:123' ./thescript.py

Debug from within a script:

pudb is a nicer experience than pdb. Put this where you want the debugger to kick in:

import pudb; pudb.set_trace();
