我写了以下代码来测试matplotlib的savefig()功能性能:

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import numpy as np
from numpy.random import rand
import time

for i in xrange(10):

    init = time.time()
    x = rand(100)
    y = rand(100)
    t_init=time.time()-init

    init = time.time()
    ax = plt.axes()
    t_axes=time.time()-init

    init = time.time()
    num, _, _ = np.histogram2d(x,y)
    t_hist = time.time()-init

    init = time.time()
    ax.imshow(num, extent=[-.5,.5,-.5,.5], interpolation="bicubic")
    t_imshow = time.time()-init

    init = time.time()
    t = ax.text(i*.1,.1, "Value ="+str(i))
    plt.savefig("test/"+str(i)+".png")
    t.remove()
    t_savefig = time.time()-init

    print t_init, t_axes, t_hist, t_imshow, t_savefig

出乎意料的是savefig(),每次迭代的性能都会下降,如下表最后一列所示:

t_inint           t_axes            t_hist            t_imshow         t_savefig

savefig()减速的原因是什么?我怎样才能避免这种行为?谢谢你。

您需要清除绘图之间的轴,添加即可plt.cla(),有一篇很棒的关于清除数字的 stackoverflow 帖子值得一读。

如果您在迭代之间执行 plt.clf() ,那么时间并没有真正增加。我的猜测是,在您在先前的轴上过度绘制(累积它们)之前,这会导致更长的 savefig。
