timeit-profile

[sublee]

We use timeit to compare performance of similar code:

$ python -m timeit -s 'import foo' 'foo.egg()'
10000 loops, best of 3: 25.2 usec per loop
$ python -m timeit -s 'import foo' 'foo.spam()'
10000 loops, best of 3: 40.3 usec per loop

Now we know foo.spam() is slower. But why?

profiling should provide timeit as a command. It will be helpful to inquire into the cause of the performance loss.

$ python -m profiling timeit -s 'import foo' 'foo.spam()'
            ^^^^^^^^^
           Just add it.
