@mcm: you got me worried. Your test function was clocking a hell lower than the original script. But then I found out why; one order of magnitude less (5000 vs 50000). Once that was corrected, you got the exact same clock times as "my app" (i.e. function directly in the controller). I also stripped out the logging part making the app just return the result and no visible changes to the timings happened.
@hh: glad at least we got some grounds to hold on. @mariano: compiled or not, it doesn't seem to "change" the mean. a compiled app has just lower variance. @all: jlundell definitively hit something. Times are much more lower when threads are 1. BTW: if I change "originalscript.py" to # -*- coding: utf-8 -*- import time import threading def test(): start = time.time() x = 0.0 for i in range(1,50000): x += (float(i+10)*(i+25)+175.0)/3.14 res = str(time.time()-start) print "elapsed time: "+ res + '\n' if __name__ == '__main__': t = threading.Thread(target=test) t.start() t.join() I'm getting really close timings to "wsgi environment, 1 thread only" tests, i.e. 0.23 min, 0.26 max, ~0.24 mean -- Resources: - http://web2py.com - http://web2py.com/book (Documentation) - http://github.com/web2py/web2py (Source code) - https://code.google.com/p/web2py/issues/list (Report Issues) --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
