我知道python中的异常在try时速度很快，但在捕获时它可能很昂贵。
这是否意味着：
try:
some code
except MyException:
pass
比这快吗？
try:
some code
except MyException as e:
pass

除了弗朗西斯科的答案之外，似乎捕获的（相对）昂贵部分之一是异常匹配：
>>> timeit.timeit('try:\n raise KeyError\nexcept KeyError:\n pass', number=1000000 )
1.1587663322268327
>>> timeit.timeit('try:\n raise KeyError\nexcept:\n pass', number=1000000 )
0.9180641582179874
查看（CPython 2）反汇编：
>>> def f():
... try:
... raise KeyError
... except KeyError:
... pass
...
>>> def g():
... try:
... raise KeyError
... except:
... pass
...
>>> dis.dis(f)
2 0 SETUP_EXCEPT 10 (to 13)
3 3 LOAD_GLOBAL 0 (KeyError)
6 RAISE_VARARGS 1
9 POP_BLOCK
10 JUMP_FORWARD 17 (to 30)
4 >> 13 DUP_TOP
14 LOAD_GLOBAL 0 (KeyError)
17 COMPARE_OP 10 (exception match)
20 POP_JUMP_IF_FALSE 29
23 POP_TOP
24 POP_TOP
25 POP_TOP
5 26 JUMP_FORWARD 1 (to 30)
>> 29 END_FINALLY
>> 30 LOAD_CONST 0 (None)
33 RETURN_VALUE
>>> dis.dis(g)
2 0 SETUP_EXCEPT 10 (to 13)
3 3 LOAD_GLOBAL 0 (KeyError)
6 RAISE_VARARGS 1
9 POP_BLOCK
10 JUMP_FORWARD 7 (to 20)

14 POP_TOP
15 POP_TOP
5 16 JUMP_FORWARD 1 (to 20)
19 END_FINALLY
>> 20 LOAD_CONST 0 (None)
23 RETURN_VALUE
请注意，catch块无论如何都会加载Exception，并将其与KeyError匹配。的确，看except KeyError as ke案例：
>>> def f2():
... try:
... raise KeyError
... except KeyError as ke:
... pass
...
>>> dis.dis(f2)
2 0 SETUP_EXCEPT 10 (to 13)
3 3 LOAD_GLOBAL 0 (KeyError)
6 RAISE_VARARGS 1
9 POP_BLOCK
10 JUMP_FORWARD 19 (to 32)
4 >> 13 DUP_TOP
14 LOAD_GLOBAL 0 (KeyError)
17 COMPARE_OP 10 (exception match)
20 POP_JUMP_IF_FALSE 31
23 POP_TOP
24 STORE_FAST 0 (ke)
27 POP_TOP
5 28 JUMP_FORWARD 1 (to 32)
>> 31 END_FINALLY
>> 32 LOAD_CONST 0 (None)
35 RETURN_VALUE
唯一的区别是存储异常值的单个STORE_FAST（如果匹配）。同样，有几个异常匹配：
>>> def f():
... try:
... raise ValueError
... except KeyError:
... pass
... except IOError:
... pass
... except SomeOtherError:
... pass
... except:
... pass
...
>>> dis.dis(f)
2 0 SETUP_EXCEPT 10 (to 13)
3 3 LOAD_GLOBAL 0 (ValueError)
6 RAISE_VARARGS 1
9 POP_BLOCK
10 JUMP_FORWARD 55 (to 68)
4 >> 13 DUP_TOP
14 LOAD_GLOBAL 1 (KeyError)
17 COMPARE_OP 10 (exception match)
20 POP_JUMP_IF_FALSE 29
23 POP_TOP
24 POP_TOP
25 POP_TOP
5 26 JUMP_FORWARD 39 (to 68)
6 >> 29 DUP_TOP
30 LOAD_GLOBAL 2 (IOError)
33 COMPARE_OP 10 (exception match)
36 POP_JUMP_IF_FALSE 45
39 POP_TOP
40 POP_TOP
41 POP_TOP
7 42 JUMP_FORWARD 23 (to 68)
8 >> 45 DUP_TOP
46 LOAD_GLOBAL 3 (SomeOtherError)
49 COMPARE_OP 10 (exception match)
52 POP_JUMP_IF_FALSE 61
55 POP_TOP
56 POP_TOP
57 POP_TOP
9 58 JUMP_FORWARD 7 (to 68)
10 >> 61 POP_TOP
62 POP_TOP
63 POP_TOP
11 64 JUMP_FORWARD 1 (to 68)
67 END_FINALLY
>> 68 LOAD_CONST 0 (None)
71 RETURN_VALUE
将复制该异常，并尝试将其与列出的每个异常相匹配，直到找到匹配为止，这可能是（可能）正在暗示的“捕获性能差”＆＃39;。

我认为两者在速度方面是相同的：

Python程序是从代码块构造的。块是一段Python程序文本，作为一个单元执行。在Python中，核心块表示为struct basicblock：
<强> CPython的/ Python的/ compile.c
typedef struct basicblock_ {
/* Each basicblock in a compilation unit is linked via b_list in the
reverse order that the block are allocated. b_list points to the next
block, not to be confused with b_next, which is next by control flow. */
struct basicblock_ *b_list;
/* number of instructions used */
int b_iused;
/* length of instruction array (b_instr) */
int b_ialloc;
/* pointer to an array of instructions, initially NULL */
struct instr *b_instr;
/* If b_next is non-NULL, it is a pointer to the next
block reached by normal control flow. */
struct basicblock_ *b_next;
/* b_seen is used to perform a DFS of basicblocks. */
unsigned b_seen : 1;
/* b_return is true if a RETURN_VALUE opcode is inserted. */
unsigned b_return : 1;
/* depth of stack upon entry of block, computed by stackdepth() */
int b_startdepth;
/* instruction offset for block, computed by assemble_jump_offsets() */
int b_offset;
} basicblock;
循环，try / except和try / finally语句处理不同的东西。对于这3个语句使用框架块：
<强> CPython的/ Python的/ compile.c
enum fblocktype { LOOP, EXCEPT, FINALLY_TRY, FINALLY_END };
struct fblockinfo {
enum fblocktype fb_type;
basicblock *fb_block;
};
代码块在执行帧中执行。
<强> 的CPython /包含/ frameobject.h
typedef struct _frame {
PyObject_VAR_HEAD
struct _frame *f_back; /* previous frame, or NULL */
PyCodeObject *f_code; /* code segment */
PyObject *f_builtins; /* builtin symbol table (PyDictObject) */
PyObject *f_globals; /* global symbol table (PyDictObject) */
PyObject *f_locals; /* local symbol table (any mapping) */
PyObject **f_valuestack; /* points after the last local */
/* Next free slot in f_valuestack. Frame creation sets to f_valuestack.
Frame evaluation usually NULLs it, but a frame that yields sets it
to the current stack top. */
PyObject **f_stacktop;
PyObject *f_trace; /* Trace function */
/* In a generator, we need to be able to swap between the exception
state inside the generator and the exception state of the calling
frame (which shouldn't be impacted when the generator "yields"
from an except handler).
These three fields exist exactly for that, and are unused for
non-generator frames. See the save_exc_state and swap_exc_state
functions in ceval.c for details of their use. */
PyObject *f_exc_type, *f_exc_value, *f_exc_traceback;
/* Borrowed reference to a generator, or NULL */
PyObject *f_gen;
int f_lasti; /* Last instruction if called */
/* Call PyFrame_GetLineNumber() instead of reading this field
directly. As of 2.3 f_lineno is only valid when tracing is
active (i.e. when f_trace is set). At other times we use
PyCode_Addr2Line to calculate the line from the current
bytecode index. */
int f_lineno; /* Current line number */
int f_iblock; /* index in f_blockstack */
char f_executing; /* whether the frame is still executing */
PyTryBlock f_blockstack[CO_MAXBLOCKS]; /* for try and loop blocks */
PyObject *f_localsplus[1]; /* locals+stack, dynamically sized */
} PyFrameObject;
一个框架包含一些管理信息（用于调试），并确定在代码块执行完成后继续执行的位置和方式。当你使用＆＃39;作为＆＃39;声明（在＆＃39;中输入＆＃39;或＆＃39;除了Exception as＆＃39;语句）您只需进行名称绑定操作。即Python只是在框架对象的* f_locals符号表中添加对象的引用。因此，运行时不会产生任何开销。
但是你在分析时会有一些开销。
<强> 的CPython /模块/ parsermodule.c
static int
validate_except_clause(node *tree)
{
int nch = NCH(tree);
int res = (validate_ntype(tree, except_clause)
&& ((nch == 1) || (nch == 2) || (nch == 4))
&& validate_name(CHILD(tree, 0), "except"));
if (res && (nch > 1))
res = validate_test(CHILD(tree, 1));
if (res && (nch == 4))
res = (validate_name(CHILD(tree, 2), "as")
&& validate_ntype(CHILD(tree, 3), NAME));
return (res);
}
但是，在我看来，这可以忽略

捕获并不昂贵，看起来相对较慢的部分是堆栈跟踪本身的创建，如果需要，随后展开堆栈。
我所知道的所有基于堆栈的语言都允许您捕获堆栈跟踪，这需要执行这些操作。
raise时收集堆栈信息。注意，Java 1.7允许您抑制堆栈收集，它会快得多，但是会丢失很多有用的信息。语言没有明智的方法可以知道谁会抓住它，所以忽略异常无济于事，因为无论如何它必须完成大部分工作。与上述两项行动相比，这个问题微不足道。下面是一些代码来演示随着堆栈深度的增加，性能下降。
#!/usr/bin/env python
import os
import re
import time
import pytest
max_depth = 10
time_start = [0] * (max_depth + 1)
time_stop = [0] * (max_depth + 1)
time_total = [0] * (max_depth + 1)
depth = []
for x in range(0, max_depth):
depth.append(x)
@pytest.mark.parametrize('i', depth)
def test_stack(benchmark, i):
benchmark.pedantic(catcher2, args=(i,i), rounds=10, iterations=1000)
#@pytest.mark.parametrize('d', depth)
#def test_recursion(benchmark, d):
# benchmark.pedantic(catcher, args=(d,), rounds=50, iterations=50)
def catcher(i, depth):
try:
ping(i, depth)
except Exception:
time_total[depth] += time.clock() - time_start[depth]
def recurse(i, depth):
if(d > 0):
recurse(--i, depth)
thrower(depth)
def catcher2(i, depth):
global time_total
global time_start
try:
ping(i, depth)
except Exception:
time_total[depth] += time.clock() - time_start[depth]
def thrower(depth):
global time_start
time_start[depth] = time.clock()
raise Exception('wtf')
def ping(i, depth):
if(i < 1): thrower(i, depth)
return pong(i, depth)
def pong(i, depth):
if(i < 0): thrower(i,depth)
return ping(i - 4, depth)
if __name__ == "__main__":
rounds = 200000
class_time = 0
class_start = time.clock()
for round in range(0, rounds):
ex = Exception()
class_time = time.clock() - class_start
print("%d ex = Exception()'s %f" % (rounds, class_time))
for depth in range(0, max_depth):
#print("Depth %d" % depth)
for round in range(0, rounds):
catcher(depth, depth)
for rep in range(0, max_depth):
print("depth=%d time=%f" % (rep, time_total[rep]/1000000))
输出是，调用Exception()
200000 ex = Exception()'s 0.040469
depth=0 time=0.103843
depth=1 time=0.246050
depth=2 time=0.401459
depth=3 time=0.565742

depth=5 time=0.921993
depth=6 time=1.102257
depth=7 time=1.278089
depth=8 time=1.463500
depth=9 time=1.657082
在Python上比我更聪明的人可能会让py.test在最后打印时间。
注意，几周前有一个与Java有关的问题非常相似。无论使用何种语言，它都是一个非常有用的线索......
