Beatiful Soup的效率問題

今天剛看bs4的官方文檔，說使用lxml做爲解析器比使用內置解析器速度快不少，因而寫了個函數測試了一下，但不知道爲何，測試跑出來的結果恰好相反，暫時未找到緣由，先作下記錄後續繼續研究。

from bs4 import BeautifulSoup
import time
from wswp.WebScraping import download

def time_test():
    FIELDS = ('area', 'population', 'iso', 'country', 'capital', 'continent', 'tld', 'currency_code', 'currency_name', 'phone', 'postal_code_format', 'postal_code_regex', 'languages',  'neighbours')
    NUM_ITERATIONS = 1000 # number of times to test each scraper
    html = download('http://example.webscraping.com/view/Aland-Islands-2')
    start = time.time()
    for name in ['html.parser', 'lxml']:
        for i in range(NUM_ITERATIONS):
            result = {}
            soup = BeautifulSoup(html, name)
            for field in FIELDS:
                result[field]=soup.find('tr', id='places_%s__row' % field).find('td', class_='w2p_fw').text
            assert(result['area'] == '1,580 square kilometres')
        end = time.time()
        print('%s the time is: %.2f seconds' % (name, (end - start)))

time_test()
