Parallel Processing with joblib

Speed up computationally intensive tasks by distributing work across multiple CPU cores.

Basic Usage

python
from joblib import Parallel, delayed
def process_item(x):
"""Process a single item."""
return x ** 2
# Sequential
results = [process_item(x) for x in range(100)]
# Parallel (uses all available cores)
results = Parallel(n_jobs=-1)(
delayed(process_item)(x) for x in range(100)
)

Key Parameters

  • n_jobs: -1 for all cores, 1 for sequential, or specific number
  • verbose: 0 (silent), 10 (progress), 50 (detailed)
  • backend: 'loky' (CPU-bound, default) or 'threading' (I/O-bound)

Grid Search Example

python
from joblib import Parallel, delayed
from itertools import product
def evaluate_params(param_a, param_b):
"""Evaluate one parameter combination."""
score = expensive_computation(param_a, param_b)
return {'param_a': param_a, 'param_b': param_b, 'score': score}
# Define parameter grid
params = list(product([0.1, 0.5, 1.0], [10, 20, 30]))
# Parallel grid search
results = Parallel(n_jobs=-1, verbose=10)(
delayed(evaluate_params)(a, b) for a, b in params
)
# Filter results
results = [r for r in results if r is not None]
best = max(results, key=lambda x: x['score'])

Pre-computing Shared Data

When all tasks need the same data, pre-compute it once:

python
# Pre-compute once
shared_data = load_data()
def process_with_shared(params, data):
return compute(params, data)
# Pass shared data to each task
results = Parallel(n_jobs=-1)(
delayed(process_with_shared)(p, shared_data)
for p in param_list
)

Performance Tips

  • Only worth it for tasks taking >0.1s per item (overhead cost)
  • Watch memory usage - each worker gets a copy of data
  • Use verbose=10 to monitor progress

Security
