How to benchmark my own script

Question

I have a quite complex blender script and I would like to know if there is a way/tool to benchmark my script to find a possible bottleneck? I have noticed that in some situations with many objects in different hierarchies my script takes around 2 to 3 min to finish the task and I would like to know where the bottleneck is.

On early test it seems like selecting and deleting a lot of empty objects takes time, but since this is just a perception I would like to know if I can track the time taken in specific parts of the code to know where the real bottleneck is.

Since it contains some names that are under NDA I have to go through it and change them for some generic names so I can post the script. — Juan Carlos, May 17 '21 at 06:40
I’m voting to close this question because it's a general python question and thus better suited for stackoverflow. — brockmann, May 19 '21 at 18:10
I updated my question since this has been related with blender since beginning, maybe because I didn't mentioned Blender it seemed to be non-blender related. — Juan Carlos, May 20 '21 at 05:34

the easiest way might be to check the times:

import time
start = time.time()
print("your time consuming task")
end = time.time()
print(end - start)
