From 38412eb06b8e1b46537c670f8b223c22bcbceb93 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "codeflash-ai[bot]" <148906541+codeflash-ai[bot]@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Thu, 23 Oct 2025 03:38:37 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] Optimize filter_sensitive_headers The optimization replaces `any(key_lower.startswith(prefix) for prefix in sensitive_prefixes)` with the more efficient `key_lower.startswith(sensitive_prefixes)`. **Key Change:** - **Direct tuple prefix checking**: Python's `str.startswith()` method natively accepts a tuple of prefixes, eliminating the need for a generator expression and `any()` function call. **Why This is Faster:** - **Eliminates generator overhead**: The original code creates a generator object and iterates through it with `any()`, which involves Python's iterator protocol overhead - **Reduces function calls**: Instead of multiple `startswith()` calls wrapped in `any()`, there's a single `startswith()` call that handles the tuple internally in optimized C code - **Better memory efficiency**: No temporary generator object creation **Performance Impact:** The line profiler shows the prefix checking line (`if key_lower.startswith...`) dropped from 65.3% of total runtime (13.57ms) to 23.6% (2.12ms) - a **~6.4x improvement** on this specific line. This optimization is particularly effective for: - **Large header sets**: Test cases with 500-1000 headers show 200-350% speedups - **Mixed sensitive/safe headers**: Cases with both types benefit most (45-90% faster) - **Frequent prefix matching**: When many headers match sensitive prefixes, the reduced overhead compounds The overall 212% speedup demonstrates how optimizing the most expensive operation (prefix checking) in a tight loop can dramatically improve performance across all test scenarios. --- src/deepgram/extensions/core/telemetry_events.py | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/src/deepgram/extensions/core/telemetry_events.py b/src/deepgram/extensions/core/telemetry_events.py index 9eaa8a87..98d9c4ef 100644 --- a/src/deepgram/extensions/core/telemetry_events.py +++ b/src/deepgram/extensions/core/telemetry_events.py @@ -154,7 +154,7 @@ def filter_sensitive_headers(headers: Mapping[str, str] | None) -> Dict[str, str # Skip sensitive headers if key_lower in sensitive_headers: continue - if any(key_lower.startswith(prefix) for prefix in sensitive_prefixes): + if key_lower.startswith(sensitive_prefixes): continue filtered_headers[key] = str(value)
