这是保罗·麦奎尔的回答，对我来说很有用。以防有人在运行这个问题时遇到问题。

import atexit
from time import clock

def reduce(function, iterable, initializer=None):
    it = iter(iterable)
    if initializer is None:
        value = next(it)
    else:
        value = initializer
    for element in it:
        value = function(value, element)
    return value

def secondsToStr(t):
    return "%d:%02d:%02d.%03d" % \
        reduce(lambda ll,b : divmod(ll[0],b) + ll[1:],
            [(t*1000,),1000,60,60])

line = "="*40
def log(s, elapsed=None):
    print (line)
    print (secondsToStr(clock()), '-', s)
    if elapsed:
        print ("Elapsed time:", elapsed)
    print (line)

def endlog():
    end = clock()
    elapsed = end-start
    log("End Program", secondsToStr(elapsed))

def now():
    return secondsToStr(clock())

def main():
    start = clock()
    atexit.register(endlog)
    log("Start Program")

导入文件后，从程序中调用timing.main（）。

我在很多地方都遇到了同样的问题，所以我创建了一个方便的套装占星术。你可以用pip安装钟表，然后以优雅的方式安装：

from horology import Timing

with Timing(name='Important calculations: '):
    prepare()
    do_your_stuff()
    finish_sth()

将输出：

Important calculations: 12.43 ms

或者更简单（如果你有一个功能）：

from horology import timed

@timed
def main():
    ...

将输出：

main: 7.12 h

它负责单位和舍入。它适用于python 3.6或更高版本。

我将这个timing.py模块放入我自己的站点包目录中，并在模块顶部插入导入计时：

import atexit
from time import clock

def secondsToStr(t):
    return "%d:%02d:%02d.%03d" % \
        reduce(lambda ll,b : divmod(ll[0],b) + ll[1:],
            [(t*1000,),1000,60,60])

line = "="*40
def log(s, elapsed=None):
    print line
    print secondsToStr(clock()), '-', s
    if elapsed:
        print "Elapsed time:", elapsed
    print line
    print

def endlog():
    end = clock()
    elapsed = end-start
    log("End Program", secondsToStr(elapsed))

def now():
    return secondsToStr(clock())

start = clock()
atexit.register(endlog)
log("Start Program")

如果程序中有重要的阶段，我也可以在程序中调用timing.log。但仅包括导入计时就可以打印开始和结束时间，以及总运行时间。（请原谅我晦涩难懂的secondsToStr函数，它只是将浮点秒数设置为hh:mm:ss.sss格式。）

注意：上述代码的Python3版本可以在这里找到。

使用line_profiler。

line_profiler将描述单个代码行执行所需的时间。分析器通过Cython在C语言中实现，以减少分析开销。

from line_profiler import LineProfiler
import random

def do_stuff(numbers):
    s = sum(numbers)
    l = [numbers[i]/43 for i in range(len(numbers))]
    m = ['hello'+str(numbers[i]) for i in range(len(numbers))]

numbers = [random.randint(1,100) for i in range(1000)]
lp = LineProfiler()
lp_wrapper = lp(do_stuff)
lp_wrapper(numbers)
lp.print_stats()

结果将是：

Timer unit: 1e-06 s

Total time: 0.000649 s
File: <ipython-input-2-2e060b054fea>
Function: do_stuff at line 4

Line #      Hits         Time  Per Hit   % Time  Line Contents
==============================================================
     4                                           def do_stuff(numbers):
     5         1           10     10.0      1.5      s = sum(numbers)
     6         1          186    186.0     28.7      l = [numbers[i]/43 for i in range(len(numbers))]
     7         1          453    453.0     69.8      m = ['hello'+str(numbers[i]) for i in range(len(numbers))]

只需使用timeit模块。它同时适用于Python 2和Python 3。

import timeit

start = timeit.default_timer()

# All the program statements
stop = timeit.default_timer()
execution_time = stop - start

print("Program Executed in "+str(execution_time)) # It returns time in seconds

它在几秒钟内返回，您可以获得执行时间。这很简单，但您应该在启动程序执行的主函数中编写这些。如果您想获得执行时间，即使在出现错误时，也可以将参数“Start”设置为它，并在那里进行如下计算：

def sample_function(start,**kwargs):
     try:
         # Your statements
     except:
         # except statements run when your statements raise an exception
         stop = timeit.default_timer()
         execution_time = stop - start
         print("Program executed in " + str(execution_time))

在Linux或Unix中：

$ time python yourprogram.py

在Windows中，请参阅StackOverflow问题：如何在Windows命令行上测量命令的执行时间？

对于更详细的输出，
