📄 933% (9.33x) speedup for SyncCursorPage.next_page_info in src/openai/pagination.py

⏱️ Runtime : 211 microseconds 20.4 microseconds (best of 138 runs)

📝 Explanation and details

The optimized code achieves a 933% speedup by eliminating an expensive isinstance check and unnecessary type casting.

Key optimizations:

  1. Removed cast(Any, data[-1]): The original code unnecessarily cast the last item to Any, which adds runtime overhead without providing any functional benefit since we only need to check for the id attribute.

  2. Replaced isinstance(item, CursorPageItem) with hasattr(item, "id"): The isinstance check was the primary bottleneck (90% of execution time in the profiler). Using hasattr leverages Python's duck typing approach - we only care if the object has an id attribute, not its exact type. This is much faster than class hierarchy checking.

  3. Used getattr(item, "id", None) for safe attribute access: This provides the same null-checking behavior as item.id is None but works safely with any object type.

Performance impact by test case type:

  • Empty data cases: Modest 42% improvement due to reduced import overhead
  • Valid cursor items: 600-650% speedup - benefits from both optimizations
  • Invalid/edge cases: 1400-2800% speedup - these benefit most since they previously triggered the expensive isinstance check that always failed
  • Large lists: Similar relative improvements (600-1800%) since the optimization only affects the last item check

The optimization maintains identical behavior while being much more efficient for Python's dynamic typing model.
