Python 中的并发

并发经常被误解为并行性。并发意味着安排独立的代码以系统的方式执行。本章重点介绍使用 Python 的操作系统的并发执行。

以下程序有助于操作系统的并发执行 -

import os
import time
import threading
import multiprocessing

NUM_WORKERS = 4

def only_sleep():
   print("PID: %s, Process Name: %s, Thread Name: %s" % (
      os.getpid(),
      multiprocessing.current_process().name,
      threading.current_thread().name)
   )
   time.sleep(1)

def crunch_numbers():
   print("PID: %s, Process Name: %s, Thread Name: %s" % (
      os.getpid(),
      multiprocessing.current_process().name,
      threading.current_thread().name)
   )
   x = 0
   while x < 10000000:
      x += 1
for _ in range(NUM_WORKERS):
   only_sleep()
end_time = time.time()
print("Serial time=", end_time - start_time)

# Run tasks using threads
start_time = time.time()
threads = [threading.Thread(target=only_sleep) for _ in range(NUM_WORKERS)]
[thread.start() for thread in threads]
[thread.join() for thread in threads]
end_time = time.time()

print("Threads time=", end_time - start_time)

# Run tasks using processes
start_time = time.time()
processes = [multiprocessing.Process(target=only_sleep()) for _ in range(NUM_WORKERS)]
[process.start() for process in processes]
[process.join() for process in processes]
end_time = time.time()

print("Parallel time=", end_time - start_time)

输出

上述程序生成以下输出 -

解释

“multiprocessing”是一个类似于threading模块的包。该包支持本地和远程并发。由于这个模块，程序员可以在给定系统上使用多个进程。
