profile

Repository for performance and memory profiling.

Performance

You can use the decorator (profile_decorator.py) and watch the results with the viewer (cprofil_viewer.py).

Memory

Memory monitoring is not as easy in Python as in C/C++.

Do NOT use

sys.getsizeof()

because it only measures the references and not the true memory needed of the maybe stored objects in an list etc.

There are some usefull modules:

• https://pypi.org/project/memory-profiler/
