⚡️ Speed up method `Compare._get_row_summary` by 81% #25

codeflash-ai · 2025-11-19T09:24:32Z

📄 81% (0.81x) speedup for `Compare._get_row_summary` in `datacompy/core.py`

⏱️ Runtime : 41.3 milliseconds → 22.8 milliseconds (best of 15 runs)

📝 Explanation and details

The optimized code achieves an 81% speedup by eliminating redundant method calls and computations in two key areas:

Primary optimization in _get_row_summary():

Eliminates duplicate expensive calls: The original code called self.count_matching_rows() twice and self.intersect_rows.shape[0] twice when building the summary dictionary. The optimized version caches these values in variables (equal_rows and intersect_rows_shape) and reuses them.
Why this matters: count_matching_rows() involves pandas DataFrame operations (all(axis=1).sum()) which are computationally expensive. The line profiler shows this method taking ~96% of execution time in the original version.

Secondary optimization in constructor:

Streamlined join_columns processing: Instead of calling str(col).lower() or str(col) for each column in a complex conditional within the list comprehension, the code now separates the logic - first casting the join_columns list once, then applying either lowercase conversion or string conversion in separate, cleaner list comprehensions.
Avoids unnecessary type casting: Only casts join_columns to List[str] when it's not None, preventing wasted work.

Performance impact analysis from test results:

All test cases show consistent 77-85% speedups, indicating the optimizations are effective across different data sizes and scenarios
Large-scale tests (1000+ rows) maintain similar speedup ratios, showing the optimization scales well
The improvements are particularly beneficial for workloads that frequently generate summary reports, as _get_row_summary() is likely called in report generation workflows

The optimizations preserve all existing behavior while significantly reducing computational overhead through intelligent caching of expensive operations.

The optimized code achieves an **81% speedup** by eliminating redundant method calls and computations in two key areas: **Primary optimization in `_get_row_summary()`:** - **Eliminates duplicate expensive calls**: The original code called `self.count_matching_rows()` twice and `self.intersect_rows.shape[0]` twice when building the summary dictionary. The optimized version caches these values in variables (`equal_rows` and `intersect_rows_shape`) and reuses them. - **Why this matters**: `count_matching_rows()` involves pandas DataFrame operations (`all(axis=1).sum()`) which are computationally expensive. The line profiler shows this method taking ~96% of execution time in the original version. **Secondary optimization in constructor:** - **Streamlined join_columns processing**: Instead of calling `str(col).lower()` or `str(col)` for each column in a complex conditional within the list comprehension, the code now separates the logic - first casting the join_columns list once, then applying either lowercase conversion or string conversion in separate, cleaner list comprehensions. - **Avoids unnecessary type casting**: Only casts `join_columns` to `List[str]` when it's not None, preventing wasted work. **Performance impact analysis from test results:** - All test cases show consistent **77-85% speedups**, indicating the optimizations are effective across different data sizes and scenarios - Large-scale tests (1000+ rows) maintain similar speedup ratios, showing the optimization scales well - The improvements are particularly beneficial for workloads that frequently generate summary reports, as `_get_row_summary()` is likely called in report generation workflows The optimizations preserve all existing behavior while significantly reducing computational overhead through intelligent caching of expensive operations.
