## About Scalene

Scalene is a high-performance CPU, GPU *and* memory profiler for
Python that does a number of things that other Python profilers do not
and cannot do.  It runs orders of magnitude faster than many other
profilers while delivering far more detailed information. It is also
the first profiler ever to incorporate AI-powered proposed
optimizations.

### AI-powered optimization suggestions

> **Note**
>
> To enable AI-powered optimization suggestions, you need to enter an [OpenAI key](https://openai.com/api/) in the box under "Advanced options". _Your account will need to have a positive balance for this to work_ (check your balance at https://platform.openai.com/account/usage).
>
> <img width="487" alt="Scalene advanced options" src="https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/1612723/211639253-ec926b38-3efe-4a20-8514-e10dde94ec01.png">

Once you've entered your OpenAI key (see above), click on the lightning bolt (⚡) beside any line or the explosion (💥) for an entire region of code to generate a proposed optimization. Click on a proposed optimization to copy it to the clipboard.

You can click as many times as you like on the lightning bolt or explosion, and it will generate different suggested optimizations. Your mileage may vary, but in some cases, the suggestions are quite impressive (e.g., order-of-magnitude improvements). 
  
### Quick Start

#### Installing Scalene:

```console
python3 -m pip install -U scalene
```

or

```console
conda install -c conda-forge scalene
```

#### Using Scalene:

<details>
<summary>
Commonly used options:
</summary>

```console
scalene your_prog.py                             # full profile (outputs to web interface)
python3 -m scalene your_prog.py                  # equivalent alternative

scalene --cli your_prog.py                       # use the command-line only (no web interface)

scalene --cpu your_prog.py                       # only profile CPU
scalene --cpu --gpu your_prog.py                 # only profile CPU and GPU
scalene --cpu --gpu --memory your_prog.py        # profile everything (same as no options)

scalene --reduced-profile your_prog.py           # only profile lines with significant usage
scalene --profile-interval 5.0 your_prog.py      # output a new profile every five seconds

scalene (Scalene options) --- your_prog.py (...) # use --- to tell Scalene to ignore options after that point
scalene --help                                   # lists all options
```

</details>

<details>
<summary>
Using Scalene programmatically in your code:
</summary>

Invoke using `scalene` as above and then:

```Python
from scalene import scalene_profiler

# Turn profiling on
scalene_profiler.start()

# Turn profiling off
scalene_profiler.stop()
```

</details>

<details>
<summary>
Using Scalene to profile only specific functions via <code>@profile</code>:
</summary>

Just preface any functions you want to profile with the `@profile` decorator and run it with Scalene:

```Python
# do not import profile!

@profile
def slow_function():
    import time
    time.sleep(3)
```

</details>

#### Web-based GUI

Scalene has both a CLI and a web-based GUI [(demo here)](http://plasma-umass.org/scalene-gui/).

By default, once Scalene has profiled your program, it will open a
tab in a web browser with an interactive user interface (all processing is done
locally). Hover over bars to see breakdowns of CPU and memory
consumption, and click on underlined column headers to sort the
columns. The generated file `profile.html` is self-contained and can be saved for later use.

## Scalene Overview

### Scalene talk (PyCon US 2021)

[This talk](https://youtu.be/5iEf-_7mM1k) presented at PyCon 2021 walks through Scalene's advantages and how to use it to debug the performance of an application (and provides some technical details on its internals). We highly recommend watching this video!

[![Scalene presentation at PyCon 2021](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/plasma-umass/scalene/master/docs/images/scalene-video-img.png)](https://youtu.be/5iEf-_7mM1k "Scalene presentation at PyCon 2021")

### Fast and Accurate

- Scalene is **_fast_**. It uses sampling instead of instrumentation or relying on Python's tracing facilities. Its overhead is typically no more than 10-20% (and often less).

- Scalene is **accurate**. We tested CPU profiler accuracy and found that Scalene is among the most accurate profilers, correctly measuring time taken.

![Profiler accuracy](https://github.com/plasma-umass/scalene/raw/master/docs/cpu-accuracy-comparison.png)

- Scalene performs profiling **_at the line level_** _and_ **_per function_**, pointing to the functions and the specific lines of code responsible for the execution time in your program.

### CPU profiling

- Scalene **separates out time spent in Python from time in native code** (including libraries). Most Python programmers aren't going to optimize the performance of native code (which is usually either in the Python implementation or external libraries), so this helps developers focus their optimization efforts on the code they can actually improve.
- Scalene **highlights hotspots** (code accounting for significant percentages of CPU time or memory allocation) in red, making them even easier to spot.
- Scalene also separates out **system time**, making it easy to find I/O bottlenecks.

### GPU profiling

- Scalene reports **GPU time** (currently limited to NVIDIA-based systems).

### Memory profiling

- Scalene **profiles memory usage**. In addition to tracking CPU usage, Scalene also points to the specific lines of code responsible for memory growth. It accomplishes this via an included specialized memory allocator.
- Scalene separates out the percentage of **memory consumed by Python code vs. native code**.
- Scalene produces **_per-line_ memory profiles**.
- Scalene **identifies lines with likely memory leaks**.
- Scalene **profiles _copying volume_**, making it easy to spot inadvertent copying, especially due to crossing Python/library boundaries (e.g., accidentally converting `numpy` arrays into Python arrays, and vice versa).

### Other features

- Scalene can produce **reduced profiles** (via `--reduced-profile`) that only report lines that consume more than 1% of CPU or perform at least 100 allocations.
- Scalene supports `@profile` decorators to profile only specific functions.
- When Scalene is profiling a program launched in the background (via `&`), you can **suspend and resume profiling**.

# Comparison to Other Profilers

## Performance and Features

Below is a table comparing the **performance and features** of various profilers to Scalene.

![Performance and feature comparison](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/plasma-umass/scalene/master/docs/images/profiler-comparison.png)

- **Slowdown**: the slowdown when running a benchmark from the Pyperformance suite. Green means less than 2x overhead. Scalene's overhead is just a 35% slowdown.

Scalene has all of the following features, many of which only Scalene supports:

- **Lines or functions**: does the profiler report information only for entire functions, or for every line -- Scalene does both.
- **Unmodified Code**: works on unmodified code.
- **Threads**: supports Python threads.
- **Multiprocessing**: supports use of the `multiprocessing` library -- _Scalene only_
- **Python vs. C time**: breaks out time spent in Python vs. native code (e.g., libraries) -- _Scalene only_
- **System time**: breaks out system time (e.g., sleeping or performing I/O) -- _Scalene only_
- **Profiles memory**: reports memory consumption per line / function
- **GPU**: reports time spent on an NVIDIA GPU (if present) -- _Scalene only_
- **Memory trends**: reports memory use over time per line / function -- _Scalene only_
- **Copy volume**: reports megabytes being copied per second -- _Scalene only_
- **Detects leaks**: automatically pinpoints lines responsible for likely memory leaks -- _Scalene only_

## Output

If you include the `--cli` option, Scalene prints annotated source code for the program being profiled
(as text, JSON (`--json`), or HTML (`--html`)) and any modules it
uses in the same directory or subdirectories (you can optionally have
it `--profile-all` and only include files with at least a
`--cpu-percent-threshold` of time).  Here is a snippet from
`pystone.py`.

![Example profile](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/plasma-umass/scalene/master/docs/images/sample-profile-pystone.png)

* **Memory usage at the top**: Visualized by "sparklines", memory consumption over the runtime of the profiled code.
* **"Time Python"**: How much time was spent in Python code.
* **"native"**: How much time was spent in non-Python code (e.g., libraries written in C/C++).
* **"system"**: How much time was spent in the system (e.g., I/O).
* **"GPU"**: (not shown here) How much time spent on the GPU, if your system has an NVIDIA GPU installed.
* **"Memory Python"**: How much of the memory allocation happened on the Python side of the code, as opposed to in non-Python code (e.g., libraries written in C/C++).
* **"net"**: Positive net memory numbers indicate total memory allocation in megabytes; negative net memory numbers indicate memory reclamation.
* **"timeline / %"**: Visualized by "sparklines", memory consumption generated by this line over the program runtime, and the percentages of total memory activity this line represents.
* **"Copy (MB/s)"**: The amount of megabytes being copied per second (see "About Scalene").

        % python3 -m scalene [options] yourprogram.py &
      Scalene now profiling process 12345
        to suspend profiling: python3 -m scalene.profile --off --pid 12345
        to resume profiling:  python3 -m scalene.profile --on  --pid 12345
```

# Asked Questions

<details>
<summary>
Can I use Scalene with PyTest?
</summary>

**A:** Yes! You can run it as follows (for example):

`python3 -m scalene --- -m pytest your_test.py`

</details>

<details>
<summary>
Is there any way to get shorter profiles or do more targeted profiling?
</summary>

**A:** Yes! There are several options:

1. Use `--reduced-profile` to include only lines and files with memory/CPU/GPU activity.
2. Use `--profile-only` to include only filenames containing specific strings (as in, `--profile-only foo,bar,baz`).
3. Decorate functions of interest with `@profile` to have Scalene report _only_ those functions.
4. Turn profiling on and off programmatically by importing Scalene (`import scalene`) and then turning profiling on and off via `scalene_profiler.start()` and `scalene_profiler.stop()`. By default, Scalene runs with profiling on, so to delay profiling until desired, use the `--off` command-line option (`python3 -m scalene --off yourprogram.py`).
</details>

<details>
<summary>
How do I run Scalene in PyCharm?
</summary>

**A:**  In PyCharm, you can run Scalene at the command line by opening the terminal at the bottom of the IDE and running a Scalene command (e.g., `python -m scalene <your program>`). Use the options `--cli`, `--html`, and `--outfile <your output.html>` to generate an HTML file that you can then view in the IDE.
</details>

<details>
<summary>
How do I use Scalene with Django?
</summary>

**A:** Pass in the `--noreload` option (see https://github.com/plasma-umass/scalene/issues/178).
</details>

<details>
<summary>
How do I use Scalene with PyTorch on the Mac?
</summary>

**A:** Scalene works with PyTorch version 1.5.1 on Mac OS X. There's a bug in newer versions of PyTorch (https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/issues/57185) that interferes with Scalene (discussion here: https://github.com/plasma-umass/scalene/issues/110), but only on Macs.
