atime_versions {atime}R Documentation

Asymptotic timing of git versions

Description

Computation time and memory for a single R expression evaluated using several different git versions.

Usage

atime_versions(
 pkg.path, N, setup, expr, sha.vec=NULL,
 times=10, seconds.limit=0.01, verbose=FALSE,
 pkg.edit.fun=pkg.edit.default, result=FALSE,
 ...)

Arguments

pkg.path

Path to git repo containing R package.

N

numeric vector of data sizes to vary.

setup

expression to evaluate for every data size, before timings. In contrast to expr, no replacement of Package: is performed.

expr

code with package double-colon prefix, for example PKG::fun(argA, argB), where PKG is the name of the package specified by pkg.path. This code will be evaluated for each different package version, by replacing PKG: by PKG.SHA:. To run different versions of implicitly-called functions like DT[i,j], you need to call them explicitly, as in data.table:::`[.data.table`(DT,i,j).

sha.vec

named character vector / list of versions.

times

number of times to evaluate each timed expression.

seconds.limit

if the median timing of any expression exceeds this many seconds, then no timings for larger N are computed.

verbose

logical, print messages after every data size?

pkg.edit.fun

function called to edit package before installation, should typically replace instances of PKG with PKG.SHA, default works with Rcpp packages.

result

logical, save results? (default FALSE)

...

named versions.

Details

For convenience, versions can be specified either as code (...), data (sha.vec), or both. Each version should be either "" (to use currently installed version of package, or if missing, install most recent version from CRAN) or a SHA1 hash, which is passed as branch arg to git2r::checkout; version names used to identify/interpret the output/plots.

Value

list of class atime with elements seconds.limit (numeric input param), timings (data table of results).

atime_versions_exprs converts expr into a list of expressions, one for each version, passed to atime as the expr.list argument.
