sciris.sc_profiling¶

Profiling and CPU/memory management functions.

Highlights:

cpuload(): alias to psutil.cpu_percent()
loadbalancer(): very basic load balancer
profile(): a line profiler
resourcemonitor(): a monitor to kill processes that exceed memory or other limits

Functions

`checkmem`	Checks how much memory the variable or variables in question use by dumping them to file.
`checkram`	Measure actual memory usage, typically at different points throughout execution.
`cpu_count`	Alias to `mp.cpu_count()`
`cpuload`	Takes a snapshot of current CPU usage via `psutil`
`loadbalancer`	Delay execution while CPU load is too high -- a very simple load balancer.
`memload`	Takes a snapshot of current fraction of memory usage via `psutil`
`mprofile`	Profile the line-by-line memory required by a function.
`profile`	Profile the line-by-line time required by a function.

Classes
