cirq_google.engine.estimate_run_sweep_time

Compute the estimated time for running a parameter sweep across a single Circuit.

cirq_google.engine.estimate_run_sweep_time(
    program: cirq.AbstractCircuit,
    params: cirq.Sweepable = None,
    repetitions: int = 1000,
    latency: Optional[float] = _BASE_LATENCY
) -> float

This should approximate, in seconds, the time for the execution of a batch of circuits using Engine.run_sweep() on QCS at a time where there is no queue (such as a reserved slot). This estimation should be considered a rough approximation. Many factors can contribute to the execution time of a circuit, and the run time can also vary as the service's code changes frequently.

program circuit to be executed
params a parameter sweep of variable resolvers to use with the circuit
repetitions number of repetitions to execute per parameter sweep
latency Optional latency to add (defaults to 1.5 seconds)
