@ -82,6 +82,18 @@ times, measured in seconds as a float. The argument is the number of
|

times through the loop, defaulting to one million. The main

statement, the setup statement and the timer function to be used are

passed to the constructor.

By default, \method{timeit()} temporarily turns off garbage collection
|
||||
during the timing. The advantage of this approach is that it makes
|
||||
independent timings more comparable. This disadvantage is that GC
|
||||
may be an important component of the performance of the function being
|
||||
measured. If so, GC can be re-enabled as the first statement in the
|
||||
\var{setup} string. For example:
|
||||
\begin{verbatim}
|
||||
timeit.Timer('for i in xrange(10): oct(i)', 'gc.enable()').timeit()
|
||||
\end{verbatim}
|
||||
\end{notice}

||||
\end{methoddesc}
