为什么在 C++ 中拆分字符串比 Python 慢?

I'm trying to convert some code from Python to C++ in an effort to gain a little bit of speed and sharpen my rusty C++ skills. Yesterday I was shocked when a naive implementation of reading lines from stdin was much faster in Python than C++ (see this). Today, I finally figured out how to split a string in C++ with merging delimiters (similar semantics to python's split()), and am now experiencing deja vu! My C++ code takes much longer to do the work (though not an order of magnitude more, as was the case for yesterday's lesson).

Python 代码:

#!/usr/bin/env python
from __future__ import print_function                                            
import time
import sys

count = 0
start_time = time.time()
dummy = None

for line in sys.stdin:
    dummy = line.split()
    count += 1

delta_sec = int(time.time() - start_time)
print("Python: Saw {0} lines in {1} seconds. ".format(count, delta_sec), end='')
if delta_sec > 0:
    lps = int(count/delta_sec)
    print("  Crunch Speed: {0}".format(lps))
else:
    print('')

C++ 代码:

#include <iostream>                                                              
#include <string>
#include <sstream>
#include <time.h>
#include <vector>

using namespace std;

void split1(vector<string> &tokens, const string &str,
        const string &delimiters = " ") {
    // Skip delimiters at beginning
    string::size_type lastPos = str.find_first_not_of(delimiters, 0);

    // Find first non-delimiter
    string::size_type pos = str.find_first_of(delimiters, lastPos);

    while (string::npos != pos || string::npos != lastPos) {
        // Found a token, add it to the vector
        tokens.push_back(str.substr(lastPos, pos - lastPos));
        // Skip delimiters
        lastPos = str.find_first_not_of(delimiters, pos);
        // Find next non-delimiter
        pos = str.find_first_of(delimiters, lastPos);
    }
}

void split2(vector<string> &tokens, const string &str, char delim=' ') {
    stringstream ss(str); //convert string to stream
    string item;
    while(getline(ss, item, delim)) {
        tokens.push_back(item); //add token to vector
    }
}

int main() {
    string input_line;
    vector<string> spline;
    long count = 0;
    int sec, lps;
    time_t start = time(NULL);

    cin.sync_with_stdio(false); //disable synchronous IO

    while(cin) {
        getline(cin, input_line);
        spline.clear(); //empty the vector for the next line to parse

        //I'm trying one of the two implementations, per compilation, obviously:
//        split1(spline, input_line);  
        split2(spline, input_line);

        count++;
    };

    count--; //subtract for final over-read
    sec = (int) time(NULL) - start;
    cerr << "C++   : Saw " << count << " lines in " << sec << " seconds." ;
    if (sec > 0) {
        lps = count / sec;
        cerr << "  Crunch speed: " << lps << endl;
    } else
        cerr << endl;
    return 0;

请注意，我尝试了两种不同的拆分实现.一个 (split1) 使用字符串方法来搜索令牌，并且能够合并多个令牌以及处理多个令牌(它来自 此处).第二个 (split2) 使用 getline 将字符串作为流读取，不合并分隔符，并且仅支持单个分隔符(该字符由多个 StackOverflow 用户在回答字符串拆分问题时发布).
