Refactor user validation in
check_valid_user_ids
function for custom profile fields inzerver/models/custom_profile_fields.py
. Instead of individual queries within a loop to fetch user profiles, utilize a bulk fetch query withUserProfile.objects.filter()
to retrieve user profiles efficiently. This change enhances performance, particularly for scenarios with multiple user IDs, ensuring a smoother user validation process.The previous implementation iterated over each user ID to retrieve user profiles, resulting in potential performance overhead for large sets of user IDs. This refactor addresses the inefficiency by fetching user profiles in bulk, significantly reducing database queries and improving overall validation speed.
