Valentyn Tymofieiev commented on BEAM-9085:
-------------------------------------------

It appears that the increase in time is likely caused by either generating the 
synthetic input, or reading the synthetic input.

The problem can be reproduced on Direct runner as well, I don't think it's 
Dataflow-specific.

Following command shows 14 (Py2) vs 40 (Py3) seconds difference on my machine.

python setup.py nosetests \
    --test-pipeline-options="
    --iterations=10

> Tests show that the performance of core Beam operations in Python 3.x on 
> Dataflow can be a few time slower than in Python 2.7. We should investigate 
> what's the cause of the problem.
> Currently, we have one ParDo test that is run both in Py3 and Py2 [1]. A 
> dashboard with runtime results can be found here [2].
