Is there any simple way to benchmark python script?

Question

Usually I use shell command time. My purpose is to test if data is small, medium, large or very large set, how much time and memory usage will be.

Any t

Answer 1

I use a simple decorator to time the func

def st_time(func):
    """
        st decorator to calculate the total time of a func
    """

    def st_func(*args, **keyArgs):
        t1 = time.time()
        r = func(*args, **keyArgs)
        t2 = time.time()
        print "Function=%s, Time=%s" % (func.__name__, t2 - t1)
        return r

    return st_func
