We have some benchmarks in
pytests/tests/test_pyfunctions.py
which I occasionally peek at, which compares some#[pyfunction]
performance with pure-Python equivalents. It's designed purely to measure the overheads.The existing comparison wasn't exactly fair because it used Rust types such as i32 on the Rust side, meaning there was additional runtime type checking going on compared to the Python implementations.
I've removed that in this PR, making all the input types on the Rust side just
&PyAny
orOption<&PyAny>
. This does reduce the gap between the Python and Rust ones where we're slower, however it shows there is still some wins we could yet find in overhead reduction.
