I was digging into why some SUVI tests take so long to run (even with
vcrpy
, ie. ignoring the remote response times), and when there are a lot of URLs to parse,get_timerange_from_exdict
is the bottleneck, as it is run on every URL. Most of the time was spent inastropy.time.Time
logic, but this is unnesseary as this code doesn't use any special features ofTime
, so:datetime
if
statements so they're not all executed if seconds are specified in the timestampThis leads to a ~50% improvement in running the scraper for me. On some SUVI searches in the current test suite, this reudces their runtime by ~3 seconds.
