An IPython magic extension that profiles Python code and renders the results as a heat map, wrapping the py-heat library. It exposes a %%heat cell magic that displays or saves the annotated heatmap as an image.

Use cases

  • profile python code in a jupyter notebook and visualize hotspots as a heatmap
  • find slow lines in a python function from ipython
  • save a profiling heatmap to a png file
  • visualize line-by-line execution time of notebook code

When to choose

  • you work in IPython or Jupyter and want quick visual profiling of a code cell
  • you prefer heatmaps over text-based profiler output

When to avoid

  • you need profiling outside IPython/Jupyter notebooks
  • you need advanced profiling features like call graphs or statistical aggregation
