STINNER Victor added the comment: Oh, your message reminded me that I always wanted an option in the timeit module to run the benchmark on two Python versions and then directly compare the result. I just added the feature to perf and then I released perf 0.7.11, enjoy! The output is more compact and it's more reliable because the comparison ensures that the difference is significant.
--- $ export PYTHONPATH=~/prog/GIT/perf $ ./python-resize -m perf timeit --inherit-environ=PYTHONPATH --compare-to=./python-ref -s 'x = range(1000); d={}' 'for i in x: d[i]=i; del d[i];' --rigorous python-ref: ........................................ 77.6 us +- 1.8 us python-resize: ........................................ 74.8 us +- 1.9 us Median +- std dev: [python-ref] 77.6 us +- 1.8 us -> [python-resize] 74.8 us +- 1.9 us: 1.04x faster --- I can reproduced the 4% speedup. (I didn't review the patch yet.) ---------- nosy: +haypo _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue28199> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
