Sadly, uvloop does not offer any noticeable improvement in performance for us. Our usage is very similar to the "benchmarks" I posted - we don't do any actual async I/O because asynq does not offer that. > I suggest you to profile it and post real profiles here Gladly! Would you like profiles of python within itself (as in, made with `cProfile`) or gmon.out profiles? the latter would be a little more difficult to run since we run a web server which needs to accept traffic, but I do have plenty of `cProfile` profiles I could share with you. > I just don't think that asyncio.gather can be the main bottleneck you have, > it must be something else I think my PR and the examples I have provided set a different mindset to this issue - the issue in question is that the "sync" performance of async/await is very poor when used to execute things in "sync". The benchmarks provided are an example of what a request life time looks like - there's a lot of scatter-gather to batch database queries that happen in sync (for the time being) which in the benchmark being simulated as simple math operations. To reiterate, I do not think `asyncio.gather` is the main performance bottleneck. I do not know how to better identify it with my limited knowledge about cpython. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue32204> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
