Yes it is. But timeit goes the other way and only measures the code.  
Admittedly I'd expect a C tail to be pretty quick anyway. But... even a 
small C programme often has a surprising degree of startup these days, 
what with dynamicly linked libraries, locale lookups etc etc. Try:

strace tail some-empty-file.txt

and see what goes on. If you're on slow hard drives what is cached in 
memory and what isn't can have a surprising effect.

When you installed nmap it would've been installed into site-packages, 
but the traceback says "/home/gabriele/Documenti/Python/nmap.py", which 
suggests to me that you called your script "nmap.py", so it's shadowing 
what you installed and is actually trying to import itself!

Re: Python & nmap

Opbservations worth considering
1) could possibly be handled by a simple bash script (My bash skills are
not great So i would probably still go python myself anyway)


Like what I wrote in my last reply to another user now I need to start 
this work asap so maybe I'll start to write a rough bash script and I 
hope to manage it when I'll have free time on Python!



2) Instead of checking availability just try to send & react appropriately
if it fails (Ask for forgiveness not permission), the client could fail
after test or during transfer anyway so you will still need this level of
error checking


Sadly true... I didn't think about it but maybe I could find a solution 
in bash script...


Thanks for your reply! :)

Re: Python & nmap

2022-05-19 Thread ^Bart
Maybe it could be a good idea to look at Ansible for copying the Files 
to all the hosts, because that is one thing ansible is made for.


I didn't know it... thanks to share it but... I should start to study it 
and I don't have not enought free time... but maybe in the future I'll 
do it! :)


For the nmap part: Ansible does not have a module for that (sadly) but 
is very extensible, so if you start developing something like that in 
Python, you could as well write an ansible module and combine both, 
because Ansible itself is written in Python.


Ah ok, maybe now I just start to write a bash script because I need to 
start this work asap, when I'll have one minute I'll try to move the 
script in Python and after it I could "upload" the work on Ansible! :)

Do you know `cython`?
It can help very much in the implementation of bridges between
Python and C/C++.

Yes, this is what I wanted to test and it seems good.

No, well, small.txt has very short lines. Lorem.txt is a lorem ipsum,
so really long lines. Indeed I get better results tuning chunk_size.
Anyway, also with the default value the performance is not bad at all.

Well, I'll try it, but it's not a bit unfair to compare Python startup with C?

Well, as I wrote I also timed

timeit.timeit("print(tail('/home/marco/lorem.txt').decode('utf-8'))",
globals={"tail":tail}, number=10)

and I got ~36 seconds.

IMHO this is a very good idea, but I have to find the time(). Ahah. Emh.
