Measuring performance and using numpy #185

[nuttamas]

Running the given function without numpy

python -m timeit -n 100 -r 5 -s "from calc_pi import calculate_pi_timeit" "calculate_pi_timeit(10_000)()"

get

100 loops, best of 5: 7.66 msec per loop

After use numpy functions, run:

python -m timeit -n 100 -r 5 -s "from calc_pi_np import calculate_pi_timeit" "calculate_pi_timeit(10_000)()"

get

100 loops, best of 5: 2.23 msec per loop

numpy makes the code faster.

Profiling code #186 Try the given code in the JupyterNotebook

def sum_of_lists(N): total = 0 for i in range(5): L = [j ^ (j >> i) for j in range(N)]

j >> i == j // 2 ** i (shift j bits i places to the right)

   # j ^ i -> bitwise exclusive or; j's bit doesn't change if i's = 0, changes to complement if i's = 1
   total += sum(L)

return total

and run %prun sum_of_lists(10_000_000)

Got result below

The lines that take most time are L = [j ^ (j >> i) for j in range(N)] and total += sum(L)

Then try %load_ext line_profiler %lprun -f sum_of_lists sum_of_lists(10_000_000)

Got the result

Approximating π using Numba/Cython #195

run calc_pi_numba.py, got the result

Elapsed (with compilation) = 900 msec pi = 3.1272 (with 10000) Elapsed (after compilation) = 180 μsec pi = 3.142 (with 10000)

The code takes much less time than the original.

Using Cython, got the result

5.48 ms ± 112 µs per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 100 loops each)

takes longer than number

Improving performance using MPI #194 The code uses the Message Passing Interface (MPI) to accomplish this approximation of π.

run python calc_pi.py -np 10_000_000 -n 1 -r 1 got

pi = 3.1411436 (with 10000000) 1 loops, best of 1: 7.97 sec per loop

numpy is the fastest MPI could work faster when performing parallel tasks.
