爬虫性能:NodeJs VS Python

EastWoodYang / 3361人阅读

摘要:结果可见这些线程是真的没有并发执行,而是顺序执行的,并没有达到多线程的目的。综上由我自己了解的知识和本实验而言,我的结论是用上多线程下载速度能够比过,但是解析网页这种事没有快,毕竟原生就是为了写网页,而且复杂的爬虫总不能都用字符串去找吧。

前言

早就听说Nodejs的异步策略是多么的好,I/O是多么的牛逼......反正就是各种好。今天我就准备给nodejs和python来做个比较。能体现异步策略和I/O优势的项目,我觉得莫过于爬虫了。那么就以一个爬虫项目来一较高下吧。

爬虫项目

众筹网-众筹中项目 http://www.zhongchou.com/brow...,我们就以这个网站为例,我们爬取它所有目前正在众筹中的项目,获得每一个项目详情页的URL,存入txt文件中。

it takes 44.804855018 Seconds to get 720 items  

这个多线程并没有优势,经过 #① 的注释与否发现,这个所谓的多线程也是按照单线程运行的。

python改进 单线程

首先我们把解析html的步骤改进一下,分析发现

lists = soup.findAll("a",attrs={"class":"siteCardICH3"})

lists = soup.findAll(attrs={"class":"ssCardItem"})

更好,因为它是直接找 a ,而不是先找 div 再找 div 下的 a
改进后实验5次结果如下,可见有进步:

it takes 41.0018861912 Seconds to get 720 items 
it takes 42.0260390497 Seconds to get 720 items
it takes 42.249635988 Seconds to get 720 items 
it takes 41.295524133 Seconds to get 720 items 
it takes 42.9022894154 Seconds to get 720 items 
多线程

修改 getItems(urllist)getItems(urllist,thno)
函数起止加入 print thno," begin at",time.clock()print thno," end at",time.clock()。结果:

可见这些线程是真的没有并发执行,而是顺序执行的,并没有达到多线程的目的。问题在哪里呢?原来
我的循环中

th.start()
th.join()

两行代码是紧接着的,所以新的线程会等待上一个线程执行完毕才会start,修改为

for i in range(allthread):
    # print urllist[i*(per):(i+1)*(per)]
    th = threading.Thread(target = getItems,args= (urllist[i*(per):(i+1)*(per)],i))
    ths.append(th)
for th in ths:
    th.start()
for th in ths:
    th.join()

结果:

反思

上面的的多线是并发了,可是比单线程运行时间长了太多......我还没找出来原因,猜想是不是beautifulsoup不支持多线程?请各位多多指教。为了验证这个想法,我准备不用beautifulsoup,直接使用字符串查找。首先还是从单线程的修改:

可见多线程确实比单线程快好多倍。对于简单的爬取任务而言,用字符串的内置方法比用beautifulsoup解析html快很多。

NodeJs
// npm install request -g #貌似不行,要进入代码所在目录:npm install --save request
// npm install cheerio -g  #npm install --save cheerio

var request = require("request");
var cheerio = require("cheerio");
var fs = require("fs");

var t1 = new Date().getTime();
var allpage = 30;
var urllist = new Array()  
var urldata = "";
var mark = 0;
var no = 0;
for (var i=0; i= 0; i--) {
        // console.log(href[i].attribs["href"]);
        urldata += (href[i].attribs["href"]+"

        no += 1;
    }    
    mark += 1;
    if (mark==allpage) {

        fs.writeFile("./nodestandard.txt",urldata,function(err){
                    if(err) throw err;
        });
        var t2 = new Date().getTime();
        console.log("it takes " + ((t2-t1)/1000).toString() + " Seconds to get " + no.toString() + " items");
    }

可见和解析起来的时间是差不多的。

综上

由我自己了解的知识和本实验而言,我的结论是:python用上多线程下载速度能够比过nodejs,但是解析网页这种事python没有nodejs快,毕竟js原生就是为了写网页,而且复杂的爬虫总不能都用字符串去找吧。

2016.9.13-补充

评论中提到的time.time(),感谢老司机指出我的错误,我在python多线程,字符串查找版本中使用了,实验3次过后依然是快于nodejs版本的平均用时2.3S,不知道是不是您和我的网络环境不一样导致?我准备换个教室试试......至于有没有误导人,我想读者会自己去尝试,得出自己的结论。

Python的确有异步(twisted),nodejs也的确有多进程(child_process),我想追求极致的性能比较还需要对这两种语言有更深入的研究,这个我目前也是半知不解,我会尽快花时间了解,争取实现比较(这里不是追求编程方法的比较,就是单纯的想比较在同一台机器同一个网络下,两种语言能做到的极致。道阻且长啊。)

还有解析方法,我这里用的是python自带的解析,官网说lxml的确比自带的快,但是我这里换了过后多线程依然没有体现出来优势,所以我还是很疑惑,是不是beautifulsoup不支持多线程?,我在官网没找到相关文档,请各位指教。另外from BeautifulSoup import BeautifulSoup的确是比from bs4 import BeautifulSoup 慢多了,这是BeautifulSoup的版本原因,感谢评论者指出。
