Performance Evals

Basic Example

performance.py

"""Run `uv pip install openai agno memory_profiler` to install dependencies."""

from agno.agent import Agent
from agno.eval.performance import PerformanceEval
from agno.models.openai import OpenAIResponses


def run_agent():
    agent = Agent(
        model=OpenAIResponses(id="gpt-5.2"),
        system_message="Be concise, reply with one sentence.",
    )

    response = agent.run("What is the capital of France?")
    print(f"Agent response: {response.content}")

    return response


simple_response_perf = PerformanceEval(
    name="Simple Performance Evaluation",
    func=run_agent,
    num_iterations=1,
    warmup_runs=0,
)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    simple_response_perf.run(print_results=True, print_summary=True)

Tool Usage Performance

Compare how tools affects your agent’s performance:

tools_performance.py

"""Run `uv pip install agno openai memory_profiler` to install dependencies."""

from typing import Literal

from agno.agent import Agent
from agno.eval.performance import PerformanceEval
from agno.models.openai import OpenAIResponses


def get_weather(city: Literal["nyc", "sf"]):
    """Use this to get weather information."""
    if city == "nyc":
        return "It might be cloudy in nyc"
    elif city == "sf":
        return "It's always sunny in sf"


tools = [get_weather]


def instantiate_agent():
    return Agent(model=OpenAIResponses(id="gpt-5.2"), tools=tools)  # type: ignore


instantiation_perf = PerformanceEval(
    name="Tool Instantiation Performance", func=instantiate_agent, num_iterations=1000
)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    instantiation_perf.run(print_results=True, print_summary=True)

Performance with asyncronous functions

Evaluate agent performance with asyncronous functions:

async_performance.py

"""This example shows how to run a Performance evaluation on an async function."""

import asyncio

from agno.agent import Agent
from agno.eval.performance import PerformanceEval
from agno.models.openai import OpenAIResponses


# Simple async function to run an Agent.
async def arun_agent():
    agent = Agent(
        model=OpenAIResponses(id="gpt-5.2"),
        system_message="Be concise, reply with one sentence.",
    )
    response = await agent.arun("What is the capital of France?")
    return response


performance_eval = PerformanceEval(func=arun_agent, num_iterations=10)

# Because we are evaluating an async function, we use the arun method.
asyncio.run(performance_eval.arun(print_summary=True, print_results=True))

Agent Performace with Memory Updates

Test agent performance with memory updates:

memory_performance.py

db = SqliteDb(db_file="tmp/memory.db")


def run_agent():
    agent = Agent(
        model=OpenAIResponses(id="gpt-5.2"),
        system_message="Be concise, reply with one sentence.",
        db=db,
        update_memory_on_run=True,
    )

    response = agent.run("My name is Tom! I'm 25 years old and I live in New York.")
    print(f"Agent response: {response.content}")

    return response


response_with_memory_updates_perf = PerformanceEval(
    name="Memory Updates Performance",
    func=run_agent,
    num_iterations=5,
    warmup_runs=0,
)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    response_with_memory_updates_perf.run(print_results=True, print_summary=True)

Agent Performance with Storage

Test agent performance with storage:

storage_performance.py

"""Run `uv pip install openai agno` to install dependencies."""

from agno.agent import Agent
from agno.db.sqlite import SqliteDb
from agno.eval.performance import PerformanceEval

        add_history_to_context=True,
        db=db,
    )
    response_1 = agent.run("What is the capital of France?")
    print(response_1.content)

    response_2 = agent.run("How many people live there?")
    print(response_2.content)

    return response_2.content


response_with_storage_perf = PerformanceEval(
    name="Storage Performance",
    func=run_agent,
    num_iterations=1,
    warmup_runs=0,
)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    response_with_storage_perf.run(print_results=True, print_summary=True)

Agent Instantiation Performance

Test agent instantiation performance:

agent_instantiation.py

"""Run `uv pip install agno openai` to install dependencies."""

from agno.agent import Agent
from agno.eval.performance import PerformanceEval


def instantiate_agent():
    return Agent(system_message="Be concise, reply with one sentence.")

    name="Instantiation Performance", func=instantiate_agent, num_iterations=1000
)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    instantiation_perf.run(print_results=True, print_summary=True)

from agno.agent import Agent
from agno.eval.performance import PerformanceEval
from agno.models.openai import OpenAIResponses
from agno.team import Team

team_member = Agent(model=OpenAIResponses(id="gpt-5.2"))


def instantiate_team():
    return Team(members=[team_member])

    name="Instantiation Performance Team", func=instantiate_team, num_iterations=1000
)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    instantiation_perf.run(print_results=True, print_summary=True)
