How can I measure performance metrics in asynchronous Python applications?

You can use libraries like asyncio along with time or timeit to measure execution time. Would you like an example?

Yes, please provide an example of how to implement this.

Sure! Here's a simple example using asyncio and time:

import asyncio
import time

async def my_async_function():
    await asyncio.sleep(1)

start_time = time.time()
await my_async_function()
end_time = time.time()

print(f"Execution time: {end_time - start_time} seconds")

This will measure the time taken by my_async_function to execute.

What about measuring throughput and latency?

For throughput, you can count the number of tasks completed in a given time frame. For latency, measure the time from when a request is made to when a response is received. Would you like more detailed examples?
