I'm happy to announce that speed.python.org is finally functional! There's not much there yet, as each benchmark builder has only sent one result so far (and one of those involved a bit of cheating on my part), but it's there. There are likely to be rough edges that still need smoothing out. When you find them, please report them at https://github.com/zware/codespeed/issues or on the speed@python.org mailing list. Many thanks to Intel for funding the work to get it set up and to Brett Cannon and Benjamin Peterson for their reviews. Happy benchmarking, -- Zach

Heh, cdecimal utterly demolishing the old pure Python decimal module on the telco benchmark means normalising against CPython 3.5 rather than 2.7 really isn't very readable :) Cheers, Nick. -- Nick Coghlan | ncoghlan@gmail.com | Brisbane, Australia

I find viewing the graphs using the horizontal layout is much easier to read (the bars are a lot thicker and everything zooms in more).

That comment was based on the horizontal layout - the telco benchmark runs ~53x faster in Python 3 than it does in Python 2 (without switching to cdecimal), so you end up with all the other benchmarks being squashed into the leftmost couple of grid cells.

Displaying ratios linearly rather than on a log scale axis can be misleading depending on what you are looking for. (feature request: allow a log scale?) major kudos to everyone involved in getting this setup! On Fri, Feb 5, 2016 at 11:06 PM Nick Coghlan <ncoghlan@gmail.com> wrote:

Big thanks to you, Zachary (and everyone involved)! It's a very good news. Yury On 2016-02-04 1:48 AM, Zachary Ware wrote:

Happy benchmarking,

To piggyback on Zach's speed.python.org announcement, we will most likely be kicking off a discussion of redoing the benchmark suite, tweaking the test runner, etc. over on the speed@ ML. Those of us who have been doing perf work lately have found some shortcoming we would like to fix in our benchmarks suite, so if you want to participate in that discussion, please join speed@ by next week.

Zachary, Do you run the benchmarks in rigorous mode? Yury On 2016-02-04 1:48 AM, Zachary Ware wrote:

Not currently. I think I need to reschedule when the benchmarks are run anyway, to avoid conflicts with PyPy's usage of that box, and will add rigorous mode when I do that. -- Zach
