并行化这段代码最简单的方法是什么?

使用concurrent.futures中的PoolExecutor。将原始代码与此代码并排比较。首先，最简洁的方法是使用executor.map:

...
with ProcessPoolExecutor() as executor:
    for out1, out2, out3 in executor.map(calc_stuff, parameters):
        ...

或者通过单独提交每个电话来分解:

...
with ThreadPoolExecutor() as executor:
    futures = []
    for parameter in parameters:
        futures.append(executor.submit(calc_stuff, parameter))

    for future in futures:
        out1, out2, out3 = future.result() # this will block
        ...

离开上下文表示执行程序释放资源

您可以使用线程或进程，并使用完全相同的接口。

一个工作示例

下面是工作示例代码，将演示的价值:

把它放在一个文件futuretest.py中:

from concurrent.futures import ProcessPoolExecutor, ThreadPoolExecutor
from time import time
from http.client import HTTPSConnection

def processor_intensive(arg):
    def fib(n): # recursive, processor intensive calculation (avoid n > 36)
        return fib(n-1) + fib(n-2) if n > 1 else n
    start = time()
    result = fib(arg)
    return time() - start, result

def io_bound(arg):
    start = time()
    con = HTTPSConnection(arg)
    con.request('GET', '/')
    result = con.getresponse().getcode()
    return time() - start, result

def manager(PoolExecutor, calc_stuff):
    if calc_stuff is io_bound:
        inputs = ('python.org', 'stackoverflow.com', 'stackexchange.com',
                  'noaa.gov', 'parler.com', 'aaronhall.dev')
    else:
        inputs = range(25, 32)
    timings, results = list(), list()
    start = time()
    with PoolExecutor() as executor:
        for timing, result in executor.map(calc_stuff, inputs):
            # put results into correct output list:
            timings.append(timing), results.append(result)
    finish = time()
    print(f'{calc_stuff.__name__}, {PoolExecutor.__name__}')
    print(f'wall time to execute: {finish-start}')
    print(f'total of timings for each call: {sum(timings)}')
    print(f'time saved by parallelizing: {sum(timings) - (finish-start)}')
    print(dict(zip(inputs, results)), end = '\n\n')

def main():
    for computation in (processor_intensive, io_bound):
        for pool_executor in (ProcessPoolExecutor, ThreadPoolExecutor):
            manager(pool_executor, calc_stuff=computation)

if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()

下面是python -m futuretest一次运行的输出:

处理器密集型的分析

在Python中执行处理器密集型计算时，期望ProcessPoolExecutor比ThreadPoolExecutor性能更好。

由于全局解释器锁(又名GIL)的存在，线程不能使用多个处理器，因此每次计算的时间和壁时间(实际运行的时间)会更大。

IO-bound分析

另一方面，当执行IO绑定操作时，期望ThreadPoolExecutor比ProcessPoolExecutor性能更好。

Python的线程是真实的，OS，线程。操作系统可以让它们进入睡眠状态，并在信息到达时将它们重新唤醒。

最终的想法

我怀疑在Windows上多处理会更慢，因为Windows不支持分叉，所以每个新进程都要花时间启动。

您可以在多个进程中嵌套多个线程，但建议不要使用多个线程来派生多个进程。

如果在Python中面临一个繁重的处理问题，您可以简单地使用额外的进程来扩展—但不能使用线程。

from joblib import Parallel, delayed
def process(i):
    return i * i
    
results = Parallel(n_jobs=2)(delayed(process)(i) for i in range(10))
print(results)  # prints [0, 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81]

以上在我的机器上工作得很漂亮(Ubuntu，包joblib是预安装的，但可以通过pip install joblib安装)。

摘自https://blog.dominodatalab.com/simple-parallelization/

编辑于2021年3月31日:关于joblib, multiprocessing, threading和asyncio

joblib in the above code uses import multiprocessing under the hood (and thus multiple processes, which is typically the best way to run CPU work across cores - because of the GIL) You can let joblib use multiple threads instead of multiple processes, but this (or using import threading directly) is only beneficial if the threads spend considerable time on I/O (e.g. read/write to disk, send an HTTP request). For I/O work, the GIL does not block the execution of another thread Since Python 3.7, as an alternative to threading, you can parallelise work with asyncio, but the same advice applies like for import threading (though in contrast to latter, only 1 thread will be used; on the plus side, asyncio has a lot of nice features which are helpful for async programming) Using multiple processes incurs overhead. Think about it: Typically, each process needs to initialise/load everything you need to run your calculation. You need to check yourself if the above code snippet improves your wall time. Here is another one, for which I confirmed that joblib produces better results:

import time
from joblib import Parallel, delayed

def countdown(n):
    while n>0:
        n -= 1
    return n


t = time.time()
for _ in range(20):
    print(countdown(10**7), end=" ")
print(time.time() - t)  
# takes ~10.5 seconds on medium sized Macbook Pro


t = time.time()
results = Parallel(n_jobs=2)(delayed(countdown)(10**7) for _ in range(20))
print(results)
print(time.time() - t)
# takes ~6.3 seconds on medium sized Macbook Pro

假设我们有一个async函数

async def work_async(self, student_name: str, code: str, loop):
"""
Some async function
"""
    # Do some async procesing    

这需要在一个大数组上运行。有些属性被传递给程序，有些则来自数组中字典元素的属性。

async def process_students(self, student_name: str, loop):
    market = sys.argv[2]
    subjects = [...] #Some large array
    batchsize = 5
    for i in range(0, len(subjects), batchsize):
        batch = subjects[i:i+batchsize]
        await asyncio.gather(*(self.work_async(student_name,
                                           sub['Code'],
                                           loop)
                       for sub in batch))

为了并行化一个简单的for循环，joblib为多处理的原始使用带来了很多价值。不仅是简短的语法，还包括在迭代非常快的时候(以消除开销)进行透明的迭代聚集，或者捕获子进程的回溯，以获得更好的错误报告。

免责声明:我是joblib的原作者。

tqdm库的并发包装器是并行化长时间运行代码的好方法。tqdm通过智能进度表提供当前进度和剩余时间的反馈，我发现这对于长时间计算非常有用。

通过对thread_map的简单调用，循环可以被重写为并发线程，或者通过对process_map的简单调用，循环可以被重写为并发多进程:

from tqdm.contrib.concurrent import thread_map, process_map


def calc_stuff(num, multiplier):
    import time

    time.sleep(1)

    return num, num * multiplier


if __name__ == "__main__":

    # let's parallelize this for loop:
    # results = [calc_stuff(i, 2) for i in range(64)]

    loop_idx = range(64)
    multiplier = [2] * len(loop_idx)

    # either with threading:
    results_threading = thread_map(calc_stuff, loop_idx, multiplier)

    # or with multi-processing:
    results_processes = process_map(calc_stuff, loop_idx, multiplier)
