我使用的是FCC的API经/纬坐标转换成块组代码:熊猫和多
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
import urllib
import time
import json
# getup, getup1, and getup2 make up the url to the api
getup = 'http://data.fcc.gov/api/block/find?format=json&latitude='
getup1 = '&longitude='
getup2 = '&showall=false'
lat = ['40.7127837','34.0522342','41.8781136','29.7604267','39.9525839',
'33.4483771','29.4241219','32.715738','32.7766642','37.3382082','30.267153',
'39.768403','30.3321838','37.7749295','39.9611755','35.2270869',
'32.7554883','42.331427','31.7775757','35.1495343']
long = ['-74.0059413','-118.2436849','-87.6297982','-95.3698028','-75.1652215',
'-112.0740373','-98.4936282','-117.1610838','-96.7969879','-121.8863286',
'-97.7430608','-86.158068','-81.655651','-122.4194155','-82.9987942',
'-80.8431267','-97.3307658','-83.0457538','-106.4424559','-90.0489801']
#make lat and long in to a Pandas DataFrame
latlong = pd.DataFrame([lat,long]).transpose()
latlong.columns = ['lat','long']
new_list = []
def block(x):
for index,row in x.iterrows():
#request url and read the output
a = urllib.request.urlopen(getup + row['lat'] + getup1 + row['long'] + getup2).read()
#load json output in to a form python can understand
a1 = json.loads(a)
#append output to an empty list.
new_list.append(a1['Block']['FIPS'])
#call the function with latlong as the argument.
block(latlong)
#print the list, note: it is important that function appends to the list
print(new_list)
给出了这样的输出:
['360610031001021', '060372074001033', '170318391001104', '482011000003087',

'481130204003064', '060855010004004', '484530011001092', '180973910003057',

与该脚本的问题是,我可以每行只调用一次api。脚本运行需要花费大约5分钟的时间,这对于我计划使用此脚本的1,000,000个条目来说是不可接受的。
我想用多处理来并行这个函数来减少运行函数的时间。我试图查看多处理手册,但一直未能弄清楚如何运行该函数并将输出追加到并行的空列表中。
仅供参考:我正在使用python 3.6
任何指导都会很棒!
嘿,你可能想看看在[python GIL](https://wiki.python.org/moin/GlobalInterpreterLock)。大多数时候在python中使用并行性会增加计算时间,而不是减少计算时间。 – Tbaki
既然你是IO绑定的,线程在这里是有意义的,将不得不重构你的问题,以避免追加到全局列表。 Docs这里是一个很好的开始 - https://docs.python.org/3/library/concurrent.futures.html#threadpoolexecutor-example – chrisb
@Tbaki'multiprocessing'不受GIL的影响,实际上它是为了创建提供'线程'式的api来创建多个进程来*旁路* GIL的限制。正如@chrisb指出的那样,尽管由于这个代码是IO绑定的,所以'线程'不会被GIL限制。 –
