我有一个函数发送请求以搜索来自网址的信息。搜索条件是一个列表,搜索遍历每个项目并从URL请求信息。为了加快速度,我将列表分成x个子集,并为每个子集创建一个任务。然后每个子集发送3个同时发出的请求,如下所示:
这是主要的切入点:
Search search = new Search();
await Task.Run(() => search.Start());
启动功能:
public void Search()
{
//Each subset is a List<T> ie where T is certain search criteria
//If originalList.Count = 30 and max items per subset is 10, then subsets will be 3 lists of 10 items each
var subsets = CreateSubsets(originalList);
List<Task> tasks = new List<Task>(subsets.Count);
for (int i = 0; i < subsets.Count; i++)
tasks.Add(Task.Factory.StartNew(() => SearchSubset(subsets[i]));
Task.WaitAll(tasks.ToArray());
foreach (Task task in tasks)
if (task != null)
task.Dispose();
}
private void SearchSubset(List<SearchCriteria> subset)
{
//Checking that i+1 and i+2 is within subset.Count-1 has been omitted
for (int i = 0; i < subset.Count; i+=3)
{
Task[] tasks = {Task.Factory.StartNew(() => SearchCriteria(subset[i])),
Task.Factory.StartNew(() => SearchCriteria(subset[i+1])),
Task.Factory.StartNew(() => SearchCriteria(subset[i+2]))};
//Wait & dispose like above
}
}
private void SearchCriteria(SearchCriteria criteria)
{
//SearchForCriteria uses WebRequest and WebResponse (callback)
//to query the url and return the response.content
var results = SearchForCriteria(criteria);
//process results...
}
以上代码运行正常,搜索速度非常快。但是,上面的代码是否会产生太多的开销,是否有更清晰(或更简单)的方法来实现相同的结果呢?
答案 0 :(得分:0)
这不是最有效的方法,但如果这是针对桌面应用程序的,那么效率并不是您最关心的问题。因此,除非您实际看到此代码的性能下降,否则不应更改它。
那就是说,我会以不同的方式接近这一点。
您正在使用TPL来并行化I / O绑定操作。你正在使用最复杂的dynamic parallelism;正如Jeff Mercado评论的那样,如果你使用更高级别的并行抽象,例如Parallel
or PLINQ
),你的代码会更简单,效率更高。
但是,任何 parallel 方法都会通过阻止它们来浪费线程池线程。由于这是受I / O约束的,我建议使用async
/ await
使它们并发。
如果您想进行简单的限制,可以使用SemaphoreSlim
。除了您的子集之外,我认为您不需要像这样进行限制,但如果您希望async
等效于现有代码,则它看起来像这样:
public Task SearchAsync()
{
var subsets = CreateSubsets(originalList);
return Task.WhenAll(subsets.Select(subset => SearchSubsetAsync(subset)));
}
private Task SearchSubsetAsync(List<SearchCriteria> subset)
{
var semaphore = new SemaphoreSlim(3);
return Task.WhenAll(subset.Select(criteria => SearchCriteriaAsync(criteria, semaphore)));
}
private async Task SearchCriteriaAsync(SearchCriteria criteria, SemaphoreSlim semaphore)
{
await semaphore.WaitAsync();
try
{
// SearchForCriteriaAsync uses HttpClient (async).
var results = await SearchForCriteriaAsync(criteria);
// Consider returning results rather than processing them here.
}
finally
{
semaphore.Release();
}
}
