hi every one, can you help me to write a program with parfor and compare the time consumed in comparing with for? The code is: matlabpool open local 7 tic parfor i = 1:100000 k=i end toc matlabpool close Elapsed time is 1.846197 seconds.
tic,for i = 1:100000 k=i end toc Elapsed time is 0.000640 seconds.

The reason you are seeing this result is because your loop does not do anything. If you make each iteration of your loop do substantial work, you will see a speedup.

Ideally, you should not open and close the pool for timing purposes - it's intended that you keep the pool open.
