📄 20% (0.20x) speedup for
JiraDataSource.find_components_for_projectsinbackend/python/app/sources/external/jira/jira.py⏱️ Runtime :
2.53 milliseconds→2.11 milliseconds(best of29runs)📝 Explanation and details
The optimized code achieves a 19% runtime improvement and 26.1% throughput improvement through two key micro-optimizations:
What was optimized:
Local variable caching for
self._client: Infind_components_for_projects(), the optimized version storesself._clientin a local variable_client = self._clientat the beginning of the method, then uses this local variable for the null check and finalexecute()call.Conditional header merging: In
HTTPClient.execute(), the optimized version avoids unnecessary dictionary allocation whenrequest.headersis empty by using a conditional check before merging headers.Why this leads to speedup:
Reduced attribute lookups: Python attribute access (
self._client) involves dictionary lookups in the object's__dict__. By caching it in a local variable, the optimization eliminates one attribute lookup per method call. The line profiler shows theawait _client.execute(req)line improved from 2286.1ns to 2156.4ns per hit.Avoided unnecessary allocations: When
request.headersis empty (common case), the original code still creates a new dictionary via{**self.headers, **request.headers}. The optimization skips this allocation entirely, directly usingself.headers.Impact on workloads:
These optimizations particularly benefit high-frequency API calls where the method is invoked repeatedly. The test results show consistent improvements across all test cases, with throughput tests (small/medium/large load) demonstrating the cumulative effect when processing multiple concurrent requests.
Test case performance:
The optimizations are most effective for scenarios with:
