Three points.

1.

It would be interesting to see some profiling results showing where the time is spent. For perl you can use Devel::NYTProf. I'm not sure about python.

I've profiled code with PDL in the past, and if there are many piddles being generated then the generation is a hotspot. Your profiling code regenerates the piddle each time.

This might also be relevant here: https://sourceforge.net/p/pdl/mailman/message/35067272.

2.

Your code also includes the startup times, and PDL is a pretty heavy package that pulls in many dependencies. PDL::Lite is useful in such cases.

That said, the cross-posted question on the pdl-general mailing list has updated numbers in the thread: https://sourceforge.net/p/pdl/mailman/message/37112311. numpy is faster than PDL, but not by double. (Cross-posting is OK, but it helps if it is noted in any posts).

3.

A last observation is that you appear to be running your code in a virtual machine. Does that have any effect on relative speed?

to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
