pyheatmagic VS line_profiler

LineProfiler is the best tool to learn how to write performant Python and code optimization.

You can literally see the hot spot of your code, then you can grind different algorithms or change the whole architecture to make it faster.

For example replace short for loops to list comprehensions, vectorize all numpy operations (only vectorize partially do not help the issue), using 'not any()' instead or 'all()' for boolean, etc.

Doing this for like 2 weeks, basically you can automatically recognized most bad code patterns in a glance.

You may want to try using a package like line_profiler to narrow down where the time is spent.

When tuning for performance, always measure. Never assume you know where the slow parts are. Run a line profiler and see where all the time is actually going.

Either way I would highly recommend running a profiler on your code to see where the program is spending most of its time. line_profiler is a very nice one, as it shows you execution time for each line.

There are dedicated tools like line_profiler for python - if this doesn't do exactly what you need it can be easily modified.

It's surprising to me that an sklearn pipeline and a spacy pipeline both doing simple regexing are vastly different in performance. I would go one layer deeper with measurement with something like line_profiler, which I've used to great effect to get line-by-line perf stats. This should illuminate why.

This looks really nice! Does it use line_profiler or is it a different implementation for the profiling? Either way the interface is fantastic!
