HDF5 - 并发、压缩和输入输出性能
我有以下关于 HDF5 性能和并发性的问题:
I have the following questions about HDF5 performance and concurrency:
- HDF5 是否支持并发写入访问?
- 抛开并发考虑不谈,HDF5 在I/O 性能方面的性能如何(压缩率会影响性能吗)?
- 由于我将 HDF5 与 Python 结合使用,它的性能与 Sqlite 相比如何?
- Does HDF5 support concurrent write access?
- Concurrency considerations aside, how is HDF5 performance in terms of I/O performance (does compression rates affect the performance)?
- Since I use HDF5 with Python, how does its performance compare to Sqlite?

推荐答案
更新为使用 pandas 0.13.1
Updated to use pandas 0.13.1
1) 没有.http://pandas.pydata.org/pandas-docs/dev/io.html#notes-caveats.有多种方法可以做到,例如让不同的线程/进程写出计算结果,然后将单个进程合并.
1) No. http://pandas.pydata.org/pandas-docs/dev/io.html#notes-caveats. There are various ways to do this, e.g. have your different threads/processes write out the computation results, then have a single process combine.
2) 根据您存储的数据类型、存储方式以及检索方式,HDF5 可以提供更好的性能.以单个数组的形式存储在 HDFStore
中,浮点数据经过压缩(换句话说,不是以允许查询的格式存储),存储/读取速度将非常快.即使以表格式存储(这会降低写入性能),也会提供非常好的写入性能.您可以查看此进行一些详细的比较(这是 HDFStore
在幕后使用的内容).http://www.pytables.org/,这是一张不错的图片:
2) depending the type of data you store, how you do it, and how you want to retrieve, HDF5 can offer vastly better performance. Storing in an HDFStore
as a single array, float data, compressed (in other words, not storing it in a format that allows for querying), will be stored/read amazing fast. Even storing in the table format (which slows down the write performance), will offer quite good write performance. You can look at this for some detailed comparsions (which is what HDFStore
uses under the hood). http://www.pytables.org/, here's a nice picture:
(从 PyTables 2.3 开始,查询现在被索引了),所以性能实际上比这好得多因此,回答您的问题,如果您想要任何类型的性能,HDF5 是您的最佳选择.
(and since PyTables 2.3 the queries are now indexed), so perf actually is MUCH better than this So to answer your question, if you want any kind of performance, HDF5 is the way to go.

这是代码
import sqlite3
import os
from pandas.io import sql
In [3]: df = DataFrame(randn(1000000,2),columns=list('AB'))
<class 'pandas.core.frame.DataFrame'>
Int64Index: 1000000 entries, 0 to 999999
Data columns (total 2 columns):
A 1000000 non-null values
B 1000000 non-null values
dtypes: float64(2)
def test_sql_write(df):
if os.path.exists('test.sql'):
os.remove('test.sql')
sql_db = sqlite3.connect('test.sql')
sql.write_frame(df, name='test_table', con=sql_db)
sql_db.close()
def test_sql_read():
sql_db = sqlite3.connect('test.sql')
sql.read_frame("select * from test_table", sql_db)
sql_db.close()
def test_hdf_fixed_write(df):
df.to_hdf('test_fixed.hdf','test',mode='w')
def test_csv_read():
pd.read_csv('test.csv',index_col=0)
def test_csv_write(df):
df.to_csv('test.csv',mode='w')
def test_hdf_fixed_read():
pd.read_hdf('test_fixed.hdf','test')
def test_hdf_table_write(df):
df.to_hdf('test_table.hdf','test',format='table',mode='w')
def test_hdf_table_read():
pd.read_hdf('test_table.hdf','test')
当然是天啊.
