For the last couple of days, the following message has started showing  
up on stdout at startup when I run script/console, or start mongrel in  
my development environment, or run a Rails unit test:

– tables()  
-\> 0.0210s

Apparently this is telling my about execution time for a method call  
somewhere. But I never asked for it.

Where is this message coming from? I don’t recall turning on any  
logging, or installing any plugins or new gems. I’ve grepped through  
all the code I can find. It’s very mysterious.

Any suggestions on where to look next are greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
