How to measure elapsed time in Python?

PythonPerformanceMeasureTimeit

Python Problem Overview


What I want is to start counting time somewhere in my code and then get the passed time, to measure the time it took to execute few function. I think I'm using the timeit module wrong, but the docs are just confusing for me.

import timeit

start = timeit.timeit()
print("hello")
end = timeit.timeit()
print(end - start)

Python Solutions


Solution 1 - Python

If you just want to measure the elapsed wall-clock time between two points, you could use time.time():

import time

start = time.time()
print("hello")
end = time.time()
print(end - start)

This gives the execution time in seconds.

Another option since 3.3 might be to use perf_counter or process_time, depending on your requirements. Before 3.3 it was recommended to use time.clock (thanks Amber). However, it is currently deprecated:

> On Unix, return the current processor time as a floating point number > expressed in seconds. The precision, and in fact the very definition > of the meaning of “processor time”, depends on that of the C function > of the same name. > > On Windows, this function returns wall-clock seconds elapsed since the > first call to this function, as a floating point number, based on the > Win32 function QueryPerformanceCounter(). The resolution is typically > better than one microsecond. > > Deprecated since version 3.3: The behaviour of this function depends > on the platform: use perf_counter() or process_time() instead, > depending on your requirements, to have a well defined behaviour.

Solution 2 - Python

Use timeit.default_timer instead of timeit.timeit. The former provides the best clock available on your platform and version of Python automatically:

from timeit import default_timer as timer

start = timer()
# ...
end = timer()
print(end - start) # Time in seconds, e.g. 5.38091952400282

timeit.default_timer is assigned to time.time() or time.clock() depending on OS. On Python 3.3+ default_timer is time.perf_counter() on all platforms. See Python - time.clock() vs. time.time() - accuracy?

Solution 3 - Python

Python 3 only:

Since time.clock() is deprecated as of Python 3.3, you will want to use time.perf_counter() for system-wide timing, or time.process_time() for process-wide timing, just the way you used to use time.clock():

import time

t = time.process_time()
#do some stuff
elapsed_time = time.process_time() - t

The new function process_time will not include time elapsed during sleep.

Solution 4 - Python

Measuring time in seconds:

from timeit import default_timer as timer
from datetime import timedelta

start = timer()

# ....
# (your code runs here)
# ...

end = timer()
print(timedelta(seconds=end-start))

Output:

0:00:01.946339

Solution 5 - Python

Given a function you'd like to time,

test.py:

def foo(): 
    # print "hello"   
    return "hello"
  

the easiest way to use timeit is to call it from the command line:

% python -mtimeit -s'import test' 'test.foo()'
1000000 loops, best of 3: 0.254 usec per loop

Do not try to use time.time or time.clock (naively) to compare the speed of functions. They can give misleading results.

PS. Do not put print statements in a function you wish to time; otherwise the time measured will depend on the speed of the terminal.

Solution 6 - Python

It's fun to do this with a context-manager that automatically remembers the start time upon entry to a with block, then freezes the end time on block exit. With a little trickery, you can even get a running elapsed-time tally inside the block from the same context-manager function.

The core library doesn't have this (but probably ought to). Once in place, you can do things like:

with elapsed_timer() as elapsed:
    # some lengthy code
    print( "midpoint at %.2f seconds" % elapsed() )  # time so far
    # other lengthy code

print( "all done at %.2f seconds" % elapsed() )

Here's contextmanager code sufficient to do the trick:

from contextlib import contextmanager
from timeit import default_timer

@contextmanager
def elapsed_timer():
    start = default_timer()
    elapser = lambda: default_timer() - start
    yield lambda: elapser()
    end = default_timer()
    elapser = lambda: end-start

And some runnable demo code:

import time

with elapsed_timer() as elapsed:
    time.sleep(1)
    print(elapsed())
    time.sleep(2)
    print(elapsed())
    time.sleep(3)

Note that by design of this function, the return value of elapsed() is frozen on block exit, and further calls return the same duration (of about 6 seconds in this toy example).

Solution 7 - Python

I prefer this. timeit doc is far too confusing.

from datetime import datetime 

start_time = datetime.now() 

# INSERT YOUR CODE 

time_elapsed = datetime.now() - start_time 

print('Time elapsed (hh:mm:ss.ms) {}'.format(time_elapsed))

Note, that there isn't any formatting going on here, I just wrote hh:mm:ss into the printout so one can interpret time_elapsed

Solution 8 - Python

Here's another way to do this:

>> from pytictoc import TicToc
>> t = TicToc() # create TicToc instance
>> t.tic() # Start timer
>> # do something
>> t.toc() # Print elapsed time
Elapsed time is 2.612231 seconds.

Comparing with traditional way:

>> from time import time
>> t1 = time()
>> # do something
>> t2 = time()
>> elapsed = t2 - t1
>> print('Elapsed time is %f seconds.' % elapsed)
Elapsed time is 2.612231 seconds.

Installation:

pip install pytictoc

Refer to the PyPi page for more details.

Solution 9 - Python

The easiest way to calculate the duration of an operation:

import time

start_time = time.monotonic()

<operations, programs>

print('seconds: ', time.monotonic() - start_time)

Official docs here.

Solution 10 - Python

Here are my findings after going through many good answers here as well as a few other articles.

First, if you are debating between timeit and time.time, the timeit has two advantages:

  1. timeit selects the best timer available on your OS and Python version.
  2. timeit disables garbage collection, however, this is not something you may or may not want.

Now the problem is that timeit is not that simple to use because it needs setup and things get ugly when you have a bunch of imports. Ideally, you just want a decorator or use with block and measure time. Unfortunately, there is nothing built-in available for this so you have two options:

Option 1: Use timebudget library

The timebudget is a versatile and very simple library that you can use just in one line of code after pip install.

@timebudget  # Record how long this function takes
def my_method():
    # my code

Option 2: Use my small module

I created below little timing utility module called timing.py. Just drop this file in your project and start using it. The only external dependency is runstats which is again small.

Now you can time any function just by putting a decorator in front of it:

import timing

@timing.MeasureTime
def MyBigFunc():
    #do something time consuming
    for i in range(10000):
        print(i)

timing.print_all_timings()

If you want to time portion of code then just put it inside with block:

import timing

#somewhere in my code

with timing.MeasureBlockTime("MyBlock"):
    #do something time consuming
    for i in range(10000):
        print(i)

# rest of my code

timing.print_all_timings()

Advantages:

There are several half-backed versions floating around so I want to point out few highlights:

  1. Use timer from timeit instead of time.time for reasons described earlier.
  2. You can disable GC during timing if you want.
  3. Decorator accepts functions with named or unnamed params.
  4. Ability to disable printing in block timing (use with timing.MeasureBlockTime() as t and then t.elapsed).
  5. Ability to keep gc enabled for block timing.

Solution 11 - Python

Using time.time to measure execution gives you the overall execution time of your commands including running time spent by other processes on your computer. It is the time the user notices, but is not good if you want to compare different code snippets / algorithms / functions / ...

If you want a deeper insight into profiling:

Update: I used http://pythonhosted.org/line_profiler/ a lot during the last year and find it very helpfull and recommend to use it instead of Pythons profile module.

Solution 12 - Python

Here's another context manager for timing code -

Usage:

from benchmark import benchmark

with benchmark("Test 1+1"):
    1+1
=>
Test 1+1 : 1.41e-06 seconds
        

or, if you need the time value

with benchmark("Test 1+1") as b:
    1+1
print(b.time)
=>
Test 1+1 : 7.05e-07 seconds
7.05233786763e-07

benchmark.py:

from timeit import default_timer as timer

class benchmark(object):

    def __init__(self, msg, fmt="%0.3g"):
        self.msg = msg
        self.fmt = fmt

    def __enter__(self):
        self.start = timer()
        return self

    def __exit__(self, *args):
        t = timer() - self.start
        print(("%s : " + self.fmt + " seconds") % (self.msg, t))
        self.time = t

Solution 13 - Python

Use profiler module. It gives a very detailed profile.

import profile
profile.run('main()')

it outputs something like:

          5 function calls in 0.047 seconds

   Ordered by: standard name

   ncalls  tottime  percall  cumtime  percall filename:lineno(function)
        1    0.000    0.000    0.000    0.000 :0(exec)
        1    0.047    0.047    0.047    0.047 :0(setprofile)
        1    0.000    0.000    0.000    0.000 <string>:1(<module>)
        0    0.000             0.000          profile:0(profiler)
        1    0.000    0.000    0.047    0.047 profile:0(main())
        1    0.000    0.000    0.000    0.000 two_sum.py:2(twoSum)

I've found it very informative.

Solution 14 - Python

The python cProfile and pstats modules offer great support for measuring time elapsed in certain functions without having to add any code around the existing functions.

For example if you have a python script timeFunctions.py:

import time

def hello():
    print "Hello :)"
    time.sleep(0.1)

def thankyou():
    print "Thank you!"
    time.sleep(0.05)

for idx in range(10):
    hello()

for idx in range(100):
    thankyou()

To run the profiler and generate stats for the file you can just run:

python -m cProfile -o timeStats.profile timeFunctions.py

What this is doing is using the cProfile module to profile all functions in timeFunctions.py and collecting the stats in the timeStats.profile file. Note that we did not have to add any code to existing module (timeFunctions.py) and this can be done with any module.

Once you have the stats file you can run the pstats module as follows:

python -m pstats timeStats.profile

This runs the interactive statistics browser which gives you a lot of nice functionality. For your particular use case you can just check the stats for your function. In our example checking stats for both functions shows us the following:

Welcome to the profile statistics browser.
timeStats.profile% stats hello
<timestamp>    timeStats.profile

         224 function calls in 6.014 seconds

   Random listing order was used
   List reduced from 6 to 1 due to restriction <'hello'>

   ncalls  tottime  percall  cumtime  percall filename:lineno(function)
       10    0.000    0.000    1.001    0.100 timeFunctions.py:3(hello)

timeStats.profile% stats thankyou
<timestamp>    timeStats.profile

         224 function calls in 6.014 seconds

   Random listing order was used
   List reduced from 6 to 1 due to restriction <'thankyou'>

   ncalls  tottime  percall  cumtime  percall filename:lineno(function)
      100    0.002    0.000    5.012    0.050 timeFunctions.py:7(thankyou)

The dummy example does not do much but give you an idea of what can be done. The best part about this approach is that I dont have to edit any of my existing code to get these numbers and obviously help with profiling.

Solution 15 - Python

Here is a tiny timer class that returns "hh:mm:ss" string:

class Timer:
  def __init__(self):
    self.start = time.time()

  def restart(self):
    self.start = time.time()

  def get_time_hhmmss(self):
    end = time.time()
    m, s = divmod(end - self.start, 60)
    h, m = divmod(m, 60)
    time_str = "%02d:%02d:%02d" % (h, m, s)
    return time_str

Usage:

# Start timer
my_timer = Timer()

# ... do something

# Get time string:
time_hhmmss = my_timer.get_time_hhmmss()
print("Time elapsed: %s" % time_hhmmss )

# ... use the timer again
my_timer.restart()

# ... do something

# Get time:
time_hhmmss = my_timer.get_time_hhmmss()

# ... etc

Solution 16 - Python

(With Ipython only) you can use %timeit to measure average processing time:

def foo():
    print "hello"

and then:

%timeit foo()

the result is something like:

10000 loops, best of 3: 27 µs per loop

Solution 17 - Python

I like it simple (python 3):

from timeit import timeit

timeit(lambda: print("hello"))

Output is microseconds for a single execution:

2.430883963010274

Explanation: timeit executes the anonymous function 1 million times by default and the result is given in seconds. Therefore the result for 1 single execution is the same amount but in microseconds on average.


For slow operations add a lower number of iterations or you could be waiting forever:

import time

timeit(lambda: time.sleep(1.5), number=1)

Output is always in seconds for the total number of iterations:

1.5015795179999714

Solution 18 - Python

on python3:

from time import sleep, perf_counter as pc
t0 = pc()
sleep(1)
print(pc()-t0)

elegant and short.

Solution 19 - Python

One more way to use timeit:

from timeit import timeit

def func():
    return 1 + 1

time = timeit(func, number=1)
print(time)

Solution 20 - Python

To get insight on every function calls recursively, do:

%load_ext snakeviz
%%snakeviz

It just takes those 2 lines of code in a Jupyter notebook, and it generates a nice interactive diagram. For example:

enter image description here

Here is the code. Again, the 2 lines starting with % are the only extra lines of code needed to use snakeviz:

# !pip install snakeviz
%load_ext snakeviz
import glob
import hashlib

%%snakeviz

files = glob.glob('*.txt')
def print_files_hashed(files):
    for file in files:
        with open(file) as f:
            print(hashlib.md5(f.read().encode('utf-8')).hexdigest())
print_files_hashed(files)

It also seems possible to run snakeviz outside notebooks. More info on the snakeviz website.

Here's a pretty well documented and fully type hinted decorator I use as a general utility:

from functools import wraps
from time import perf_counter
from typing import Any, Callable, Optional, TypeVar, cast

F = TypeVar("F", bound=Callable[..., Any])


def timer(prefix: Optional[str] = None, precision: int = 6) -> Callable[[F], F]:
    """Use as a decorator to time the execution of any function.

    Args:
        prefix: String to print before the time taken.
            Default is the name of the function.
        precision: How many decimals to include in the seconds value.

    Examples:
        >>> @timer()
        ... def foo(x):
        ...     return x
        >>> foo(123)
        foo: 0.000...s
        123
        >>> @timer("Time taken: ", 2)
        ... def foo(x):
        ...     return x
        >>> foo(123)
        Time taken: 0.00s
        123

    """
    def decorator(func: F) -> F:
        @wraps(func)
        def wrapper(*args: Any, **kwargs: Any) -> Any:
            nonlocal prefix
            prefix = prefix if prefix is not None else f"{func.__name__}: "
            start = perf_counter()
            result = func(*args, **kwargs)
            end = perf_counter()
            print(f"{prefix}{end - start:.{precision}f}s")
            return result
        return cast(F, wrapper)
    return decorator

Example usage:

from timer import timer


@timer(precision=9)
def takes_long(x: int) -> bool:
    return x in (i for i in range(x + 1))


result = takes_long(10**8)
print(result)

>Output: >none >takes_long: 4.942629056s >True >

The doctests can be checked with:

$ python3 -m doctest --verbose -o=ELLIPSIS timer.py

And the type hints with:

$ mypy timer.py

Solution 23 - Python

Kind of a super later response, but maybe it serves a purpose for someone. This is a way to do it which I think is super clean.

import time

def timed(fun, *args):
    s = time.time()
    r = fun(*args)
    print('{} execution took {} seconds.'.format(fun.__name__, time.time()-s))
    return(r)

timed(print, "Hello")

Keep in mind that "print" is a function in Python 3 and not Python 2.7. However, it works with any other function. Cheers!

Solution 24 - Python

You can use timeit.

Here is an example on how to test naive_func that takes parameter using Python REPL:

>>> import timeit                                                                                         
                                                                                                          
>>> def naive_func(x):                                                                                    
...     a = 0                                                                                             
...     for i in range(a):                                                                                
...         a += i                                                                                        
...     return a

>>> wrapped = wrapper(naive_func, 1_000)

You don't need wrapper function if function doesn't have any parameters.

Solution 25 - Python

print_elapsed_time function is below

def print_elapsed_time(prefix=''):
    e_time = time.time()
    if not hasattr(print_elapsed_time, 's_time'):
        print_elapsed_time.s_time = e_time
    else:
        print(f'{prefix} elapsed time: {e_time - print_elapsed_time.s_time:.2f} sec')
        print_elapsed_time.s_time = e_time

use it in this way

print_elapsed_time()
.... heavy jobs ...
print_elapsed_time('after heavy jobs')
.... tons of jobs ...
print_elapsed_time('after tons of jobs')

result is

after heavy jobs elapsed time: 0.39 sec
after tons of jobs elapsed time: 0.60 sec  

the pros and cons of this function is that you don't need to pass start time

Solution 26 - Python

We can also convert time into human-readable time.

import time, datetime

start = time.clock()

def num_multi1(max):
    result = 0
    for num in range(0, 1000):
        if (num % 3 == 0 or num % 5 == 0):
            result += num

    print "Sum is %d " % result

num_multi1(1000)

end = time.clock()
value = end - start
timestamp = datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp(value)
print timestamp.strftime('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S')

Solution 27 - Python

Although it's not strictly asked in the question, it is quite often the case that you want a simple, uniform way to incrementally measure the elapsed time between several lines of code.

If you are using Python 3.8 or above, you can make use of assignment expressions (a.k.a. the walrus operator) to achieve this in a fairly elegant way:

import time

start, times = time.perf_counter(), {}

print("hello")
times["print"] = -start + (start := time.perf_counter())

Solution 28 - Python

I made a library for this, if you want to measure a function you can just do it like this


from pythonbenchmark import compare, measure
import time




a,b,c,d,e = 10,10,10,10,10
something = [a,b,c,d,e]




@measure
def myFunction(something):
time.sleep(0.4)




@measure
def myOptimizedFunction(something):
time.sleep(0.2)




myFunction(input)
myOptimizedFunction(input)

myFunction(input) myOptimizedFunction(input)

Solution 29 - Python

If you want to be able to time functions conveniently, you can use a simple decorator:

def timing_decorator(func):
    def wrapper(*args, **kwargs):
        start = time.time()
        original_return_val = func(*args, **kwargs)
        end = time.time()
        print("time elapsed in ", func.__name__, ": ", end - start, sep='')
        return original_return_val

    return wrapper

You can use it on a function that you want to time like this:

@timing_decorator
def function_to_time():
    time.sleep(1)

Then any time you call function_to_time, it will print how long it took and the name of the function being timed.

Solution 30 - Python

This unique class-based approach offers a printable string representation, customizable rounding, and convenient access to the elapsed time as a string or a float. It was developed with Python 3.7.

import datetime
import timeit


class Timer:
    """Measure time used."""
    # Ref: https://stackoverflow.com/a/57931660/

    def __init__(self, round_ndigits: int = 0):
        self._round_ndigits = round_ndigits
        self._start_time = timeit.default_timer()

    def __call__(self) -> float:
        return timeit.default_timer() - self._start_time

    def __str__(self) -> str:
        return str(datetime.timedelta(seconds=round(self(), self._round_ndigits)))

Usage:

# Setup timer
>>> timer = Timer()

# Access as a string
>>> print(f'Time elapsed is {timer}.')
Time elapsed is 0:00:03.
>>> print(f'Time elapsed is {timer}.')
Time elapsed is 0:00:04.

# Access as a float
>>> timer()
6.841332235
>>> timer()
7.970274425

Solution 31 - Python

As a lambda, obtain time elapsed and time stamps:

import datetime
t_set = lambda: datetime.datetime.now().astimezone().replace(microsecond=0)
t_diff = lambda t: str(t_set() - t)
t_stamp = lambda t=None: str(t) if t else str(t_set())

In practice:

>>> 
>>> t_set()
datetime.datetime(2021, 3, 21, 1, 25, 17, tzinfo=datetime.timezone(datetime.timedelta(days=-1, seconds=61200), 'PDT'))
>>> t = t_set()
>>> t_diff(t)
'0:00:14'
>>> t_diff(t)
'0:00:23'
>>> t_stamp()
'2021-03-21 01:25:57-07:00'
>>> t_stamp(t)
'2021-03-21 01:25:22-07:00'
>>> 

Solution 32 - Python

import time

def getElapsedTime(startTime, units):
    elapsedInSeconds = time.time() - startTime
    if units == 'sec':
        return elapsedInSeconds
    if units == 'min':
        return elapsedInSeconds/60
    if units == 'hour':
        return elapsedInSeconds/(60*60)

Solution 33 - Python

#Measure execution time of small code snippets.

>Unit of time: measured in seconds as a float

import timeit
t = timeit.Timer('li = list(map(lambda x:x*2,[1,2,3,4,5]))')
t.timeit()
t.repeat()
>[1.2934070999999676, 1.3335035000000062, 1.422568500000125]

>The repeat() method is a convenience to call timeit() multiple times and return a list of results. > repeat(repeat=3)¶ > >With this list we can take a mean of all times.

>By default, timeit() temporarily turns off garbage collection during the timing. time.Timer() solves this problem.

>##Pros:

>>timeit.Timer() makes independent timings more comparable. The gc may be an important component of the performance of the function being measured. If so, gc(garbage collector) can be re-enabled as the first statement in the setup string. For example:

> timeit.Timer('li = list(map(lambda x:x*2,[1,2,3,4,5]))',setup='gc.enable()') >

Solution 34 - Python

based on the contextmanager solution given by https://stackoverflow.com/a/30024601/5095636, hereunder the lambda free version, as flake8 warns on the usage of lambda as per E731:

from contextlib import contextmanager
from timeit import default_timer

@contextmanager
def elapsed_timer():
    start_time = default_timer()

    class _Timer():
      start = start_time
      end = default_timer()
      duration = end - start

    yield _Timer

    end_time = default_timer()
    _Timer.end = end_time
    _Timer.duration = end_time - start_time

test:

from time import sleep

with elapsed_timer() as t:
    print("start:", t.start)
    sleep(1)
    print("end:", t.end)

t.start
t.end
t.duration

Solution 35 - Python

The timeit module is good for timing a small piece of Python code. It can be used at least in three forms:

1- As a command-line module

python2 -m timeit 'for i in xrange(10): oct(i)' 

2- For a short code, pass it as arguments.

import timeit
timeit.Timer('for i in xrange(10): oct(i)').timeit()

3- For longer code as:

import timeit
code_to_test = """
a = range(100000)
b = []
for i in a:
    b.append(i*2)
"""
elapsed_time = timeit.timeit(code_to_test, number=100)/100
print(elapsed_time)

Solution 36 - Python

Time can also be measured by %timeit magic function as follow:

%timeit -t -n 1 print("hello")

n 1 is for running function only 1 time.

Solution 37 - Python

For Python 3

If you use the time module, you can get the current timestamp, and then execute your code, and get the timestamp again. Now, the time taken will be the first timestamp minus the second timestamp:

import time

first_stamp = int(round(time.time() * 1000))

# YOUR CODE GOES HERE
time.sleep(5)

second_stamp = int(round(time.time() * 1000))

# Calculate the time taken in milliseconds
time_taken = second_stamp - first_stamp

# To get time in seconds:
time_taken_seconds = round(time_taken / 1000)
print(f'{time_taken_seconds} seconds or {time_taken} milliseconds')

Solution 38 - Python

You can use Benchmark Timer (disclaimer: I'm the author):

Benchmark Timer

Use the BenchmarkTimer class to measure the time it takes to execute some piece of code.
This gives more flexibility than the built-in timeit function, and runs in the same scope as the rest of your code.

Installation

pip install git+https://github.com/michaelitvin/benchmark-timer.git@main#egg=benchmark-timer

Usage

Single iteration example
from benchmark_timer import BenchmarkTimer
import time

with BenchmarkTimer(name="MySimpleCode") as tm, tm.single_iteration():
    time.sleep(.3)

Output:

Benchmarking MySimpleCode...
MySimpleCode benchmark: n_iters=1 avg=0.300881s std=0.000000s range=[0.300881s~0.300881s]
Multiple iterations example
from benchmark_timer import BenchmarkTimer
import time

with BenchmarkTimer(name="MyTimedCode", print_iters=True) as tm:
    for timing_iteration in tm.iterations(n=5, warmup=2):
        with timing_iteration:
            time.sleep(.1)

print("\n===================\n")
print("List of timings: ", list(tm.timings.values()))

Output:

Benchmarking MyTimedCode...
[MyTimedCode] iter=0 took 0.099755s (warmup)
[MyTimedCode] iter=1 took 0.100476s (warmup)
[MyTimedCode] iter=2 took 0.100189s 
[MyTimedCode] iter=3 took 0.099900s 
[MyTimedCode] iter=4 took 0.100888s 
MyTimedCode benchmark: n_iters=3 avg=0.100326s std=0.000414s range=[0.099900s~0.100888s]

===================

List of timings:  [0.10018850000000001, 0.09990049999999995, 0.10088760000000008]

Solution 39 - Python

In addition to %timeit in ipython you can also use %%timeit for multi-line code snippets:

In [1]: %%timeit
   ...: complex_func()
   ...: 2 + 2 == 5
   ...:
   ...:

1 s ± 1.93 ms per loop (mean ± std. dev. of 7 runs, 1 loop each)

Also it can be used in jupyter notebook the same way, just put magic %%timeit at the beginning of cell.
