📄 31% (0.31x) speedup for remove_uncoercible in src/datadog_api_client/model_utils.py

⏱️ Runtime : 26.1 milliseconds → 20.0 milliseconds (best of 39 runs)

📝 Explanation and details

The optimized code achieves a 30% speedup through several key performance improvements:

1. Local Variable Caching for Built-ins

  • Stores isinstance, issubclass, and type as local variables (_isinstance, _issubclass, _type) to eliminate repeated global lookups, which are slower in Python.

2. Optimized Type Checking Order in get_simple_class

  • Reorders type checks to prioritize common data types (tuple, list, dict, bool, int) before rare types like file_type
  • This reduces the number of isinstance calls for typical inputs, as shown in the line profiler where file_type checks dropped from 27.9% to 0.8% of total time

3. Set-Based Lookup Optimization in remove_uncoercible

  • Converts tuple lookups (COERCIBLE_TYPE_PAIRS and UPCONVERSION_TYPE_PAIRS) to sets for O(1) membership testing instead of O(N) tuple scanning
  • Pre-computes these sets once per function call rather than repeatedly accessing the original tuples

Test Case Performance:

  • Large-scale scenarios benefit most: Tests with many required types show dramatic improvements (131-191% faster) due to set-based lookups
  • Simple cases show modest slowdowns: Small test cases are 2-31% slower due to the overhead of set creation, but this is offset by gains in realistic usage
  • None-type handling significantly improved: 42.4% faster for large-scale None processing due to optimized type checking order

The optimizations are particularly effective for workloads with many type conversions or large numbers of required types, which is typical in API client libraries processing diverse data structures.

Optimize remove_uncoercible
03402c6 
The optimized code achieves a 30% speedup through several key performance improvements:

**1. Local Variable Caching for Built-ins**
- Stores `isinstance`, `issubclass`, and `type` as local variables (`_isinstance`, `_issubclass`, `_type`) to eliminate repeated global lookups, which are slower in Python.

**2. Optimized Type Checking Order in `get_simple_class`**
- Reorders type checks to prioritize common data types (tuple, list, dict, bool, int) before rare types like `file_type`
- This reduces the number of `isinstance` calls for typical inputs, as shown in the line profiler where `file_type` checks dropped from 27.9% to 0.8% of total time

**3. Set-Based Lookup Optimization in `remove_uncoercible`**
- Converts tuple lookups (`COERCIBLE_TYPE_PAIRS` and `UPCONVERSION_TYPE_PAIRS`) to sets for O(1) membership testing instead of O(N) tuple scanning
- Pre-computes these sets once per function call rather than repeatedly accessing the original tuples

**Test Case Performance:**
- **Large-scale scenarios benefit most**: Tests with many required types show dramatic improvements (131-191% faster) due to set-based lookups
- **Simple cases show modest slowdowns**: Small test cases are 2-31% slower due to the overhead of set creation, but this is offset by gains in realistic usage
- **None-type handling significantly improved**: 42.4% faster for large-scale None processing due to optimized type checking order

The optimizations are particularly effective for workloads with many type conversions or large numbers of required types, which is typical in API client libraries processing diverse data structures.
