我们可以使用 gevent.sleep() 来精确计时吗?

Can we use gevent.sleep() for precise timings?

我们能否在我们的应用程序的任何地方使用 gevent.sleep() 或在任何第三方库上使用 gevent.monkey.patch_time() 而没有问题,尤其是精确的计时?

例如,一些库使用 time.sleep() 函数来测量用于控制嵌入式(点阵 LCD 等)设备的几微秒。我们可以毫无问题地安全地猴子修补这些库吗?

没有。 gevent.sleep() 不适合精确计时。

这里是测试代码:

import gevent
import time


for i in range(10):
        test_duration = 0.1 ** i
        start_time = time.time()
        gevent.sleep(test_duration)
        end_time = time.time()

        gevent_duration = end_time - start_time

        err = (gevent_duration - test_duration) / test_duration
        print("test_duration: %.10f secs, err: %%%.10f" % (test_duration, err))

结果如下:

如您所见,错误也是不可预测的

这就是为什么在这种情况下应谨慎使用 gevent.monkey.patch_all()
