Benchmarks¶
The benchmarking scripts are in the source code and have tox environments defined for Python 2.7, 3.4 and PyPy.
All you need to do to run them yourself is check out the code and run:
tox -e benchmark-py27,benchmark-py34,benchmark-pypy
The results shown here are from an old-ish i5 laptop and are by no means 100% conclusive. With that said...
Just the timer¶
This just runs some timer metric calls via Python’s timeit. Try it yourself by checking out the code and doing:
python -m benchmark.util.quick
The times (lower is better) are
| Version | Tapes | Scales |
|---|---|---|
| Py 2.7 | 3.0038728714 | 12.1747989655 |
| Py 3.4 | 3.3859353300 | 15.8657573729 |
| PyPy | 0.4108750820 | 11.163599968 |
