爬虫性能:NodeJs VS Python

爬虫项目html

众筹网-众筹中项目 http://www.zhongchou.com/brow...,咱们就以这个网站为例,咱们爬取它全部目前正在众筹中的项目,得到每个项目详情页的URL,存入txt文件中。node

实验5次的结果:多线程

it takes 48.0242797553 Seconds to get 720 items
it takes 44.804855018 Seconds to get 720 items

这个多线程并无优点,通过 #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。并发

python改进 单线程app

首先咱们把解析html的步骤改进一下,分析发现函数

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

网站

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

更好,由于它是直接找 a ,而不是先找 div 再找 div 下的 a 改进后实验5次结果以下,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

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,并无达到多线程的目的。问题在哪里呢?原来 个人循环中

th.start()
th.join()

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

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()

反思

上面的的多线是并发了,但是比单线程运行时间长了太多......我还没找出来缘由,猜测是否是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。首先仍是从单线程的修改:

而后对多线程进行修改:

实验3次,结果:

it takes 1.44905954029 Seconds to get 720 items
it takes 1.49297891786 Seconds to get 720 items

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快不少。

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<allpage; i++) {
    if (i==0) 
        urllist[i] = 'http://www.zhongchou.com/browse/di'
    else
        urllist[i] = 'http://www.zhongchou.com/browse/di-p'+(i+1).toString();
    request(urllist[i],function(error,resp,body){
        if (!error && resp.statusCode==200) {
            getUrl(body);
        }
    });
} 

function getUrl(data) {
    var $ = cheerio.load(data);  //cheerio解析data
    var href = $("a.siteCardICH3").toArray();
    for (var i = href.length - 1; i >= 0; i--) {
        // console.log(href[i].attribs["href"]);
        urldata += (href[i].attribs["href"]+"\n");
        no += 1;
    }    
    mark += 1;
    if (mark==allpage) {
        // console.log(urldata);
        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");
    }  
}
it takes 3.949 Seconds to get 720 items
it takes 3.642 Seconds to get 720 items
it takes 3.641 Seconds to get 720 items
it takes 3.938 Seconds to get 720 items
it takes 3.783 Seconds to get 720 items

可见一样是用解析html的方法,nodejs速度完虐python。字符串查找呢?

function getUrl(data) {
    mark += 1;
    var start = 5000
    while (true) {
        var index1 = data.indexOf("deal-show", start);
        if (index1 == -1)     
            break;
        var url = "http://www.zhongchou.com/deal-show/"+data.substring(index1+10,index1+19)+"\n";
        // console.log(url);
        if (urldata.indexOf(url)==-1) {
            urldata.push(url);
        }
        start = index1 + 1000;
    }
    if (mark==allpage) {//全部页面执行完毕
        // console.log(urldata);
        no = urldata.length;
        fs.writeFile('./nodestandard.txt',urldata.join(""),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");
    }  
}

实验5次的结果:

it takes 3.695 Seconds to get 720 items
it takes 3.781 Seconds to get 720 items
it takes 3.94 Seconds to get 720 items
it takes 3.705 Seconds to get 720 items
it takes 3.601 Seconds to get 720 items

可见和解析起来的时间是差很少的。

综上 由我本身了解的知识和本实验而言,个人结论是:python用上多线程下载速度可以比过nodejs,可是解析网页这种事python没有nodejs快,毕竟js原生就是为了写网页,并且复杂的爬虫总不能都用字符串去找吧。
