数组 – 为什么Swift迭代器比数组构建慢?

前端之家收集整理的这篇文章主要介绍了数组 – 为什么Swift迭代器比数组构建慢?前端之家小编觉得挺不错的,现在分享给大家,也给大家做个参考。
这与 this question有关,假设使用生成器(迭代器)遍历嵌套数组将是迭代元素的最佳选择,只要您不需要存储结果,同时使用重复数组连接如果你只想平整阵列是最好的.

但是,我决定进行一些测试,并实现这个函数(以懒惰和存储形式展平包含Ints或[Int] s的数组[Any]),结果表明存储的形式更快,即使刚刚使用迭代元素!这意味着,不知何故,迭代生成器比在内存中构造新数组花费更多的时间,然后迭代它.

令人难以置信的是,它甚至比同一程序的python实现慢约5-70%,随着输入的减少而恶化. Swift是用-O标志构建的.

这里有三个测试用例1.小输入,混合; 2.大输入,[Int]显性,3.大输入,Int显性:

let array1: [Any] = [Array(1...100),Array(101...105),106,Array(107...111),112,113,114,Array(115...125)]
let array2: [Any] = Array(repeating: Array(1...5),count: 2000)
let array3: [Any] = Array(repeating: 31,count: 10000)

A1 = [list(range(1,101)),list(range(101,106)),list(range(107,112)),list(range(115,126))]
A2 = list(range(1,6)) * 2000
A3 = [31] * 10000

func chain(_ segments: [Any]) -> AnyIterator<Int>{
    var i = 0
    var j = 0
    return AnyIterator<Int> {
        while i < segments.count {
            switch segments[i] {
                case let e as Int:
                    i += 1
                    return e
                case let E as [Int]:
                    if j < E.count {
                        let val = E[j]
                        j += 1
                        return val
                    }
                    j = 0
                    i += 1

                default:
                    return nil
            }
        }
        return nil
    }
}


func flatten_array(_ segments: [Any]) -> [Int] {
    var result = [Int]()
    for segment in segments {
        switch segment {
            case let segment as Int:
                result.append(segment)
            case let segment as [Int]:
                result.append(contentsOf: segment)
            default:
                break
        }
    }
    return result
}

            yield i
        elif type(i) is list:
            yield from i


def flatten_list(L):
    result = []
    for i in L:
        if type(i) is int:
            result.append(i)
        elif type(i) is list:
            result.extend(i)
    return result

显然,Swift非常非常擅长构建数组.但是为什么它的发生器在某些情况下如此慢,甚至比Python慢​​? (在表格中标有*.)使用极大的输入(> 100,000,000个元素,几乎崩溃Swift)进行测试表明,即使在极限情况下,发生器也会比阵列填充速度慢至少3.25倍在最好的情况下.

如果这是该语言的内在特征,那么它有一些有趣的含义.例如,常识(对我来说无论如何都是python程序员)会有这样的情况:如果我们试图合成一个不可变对象(比如一个字符串),我们首先应该将源提供给一个生成函数来展开它,然后手将输出关闭到一个join()方法,该方法适用于单个浅序列.相反,看起来最有效的策略是通过数组进行序列化;将源展开到中间数组,然后构造数组的输出.

是构建一个完整的新数组,然后通过它迭代它比原始数组上的延迟迭代更快?为什么?

你问“为什么它的[Swift]生成器在某些情况下如此慢,甚至比Python慢​​?”

我的答案是,我不认为它们几乎和你的结果一样慢.特别是,我将尝试证明循环遍历迭代器应该比为所有测试用例构造数组更快.

在早期的工作中(参见http://lemire.me/blog/2016/09/22/swift-versus-java-the-bitset-performance-test/的相关博客文章),我发现在使用bitset类时,Swift迭代器的速度大约是Java中等效函数的一半.这不是很好,但Java在这方面非常有效.与此同时,Go更糟糕.我向你提出,Swift迭代器可能效率不高,但它们可能只是原始C代码可能的两倍.性能差距可能与Swift中功能内联不足有关.

我看到你正在使用AnyIterator.我建议从IteratorProtocol派生一个结构,它的好处是确保不必进行任何动态调度.这是一个相对有效的可能性:

public struct FastFlattenIterator: IteratorProtocol {
   let segments: [Any]
    var i = 0 // top-level index
    var j = 0 // second-level index
    var jmax = 0 // essentially,this is currentarray.count,but we buffer it
    var currentarray : [Int]! // quick reference to an int array to be flatten

   init(_ segments: [Any]) {
       self.segments = segments
   }

   public mutating func next() -> Int? {
     if j > 0 { // we handle the case where we iterate within an array separately
       let val = currentarray[j]
       j += 1
       if j == jmax {
         j = 0
         i += 1
       }
       return val
     }
     while i < segments.count {
        switch segments[i] {
          case let e as Int: // found an integer value
            i += 1
            return e
          case let E as [Int]: // first encounter with an array
            jmax = E.count
            currentarray = E
            if jmax > 0 {
              j = 1
              return E[0]
            }
            i += 1
          default:
            return nil
        }
     }
     return nil
   }
}

通过这门课,我得到以下数字.对于每个测试用例,前四个方法取自您的代码示例,而后两个(快速迭代器)是使用新结构构建的.请注意,“通过快速迭代器循环”总是最快的.
