QGate-Perf
The QGate Performance is enabler for python performance test execution. Key benefits:
- easy performance testing your python code (key parts - init, start, stop, return)
- measure only specific part of your code
- scalability without limits (e.g. from 1 to 1k executors)
- scalability in level of processes and threads (easy way, how to avoid GIL in python)
- sequences for execution and data bulk
- relation to graph generator
NOTE: The recommendations are:
- use Python >= 3.11
- use the 'QGate-Perf-cs' (C# implementation of QGate-Perf), in case of bigger parallelism and lower CPU spending
Usage

from qgate_perf.parallel_probe import ParallelProbe
from qgate_perf.run_setup import RunSetup

def prf_GIL_impact(run_setup: RunSetup):
""" Your own function for performance testing, you have to add
only part INIT, START, STOP and RETURN"""
probe=ParallelProbe(run_setup)
while (True):
probe.start()
for r in range(run_setup.bulk_row * run_setup.bulk_col):
time.sleep(0)
if probe.stop():
break
return probe
generator = ParallelExecutor(prf_GIL_impact,

You can see performance visualisation:
- calls per second for different amount of executors
- response time in seconds with standard deviation for different amount of executors
The executor graph, you can see amount of executors in time.

32 executors (8 processes x 4 threads)
