📄 22% (0.22x) speedup for
JiraDataSource.create_dashboardinbackend/python/app/sources/external/jira/jira.py⏱️ Runtime :
2.10 milliseconds→1.73 milliseconds(best of245runs)📝 Explanation and details
The optimization achieves a 21% runtime improvement by targeting the most expensive helper functions called during HTTP request preparation:
Key Optimizations:
_as_str_dict Early Returns: Added two fast-path checks that avoid expensive operations:
if not d: return {}) - saves 15.1% of function timeif all(isinstance(k, str) and isinstance(v, str)...)) - directly returns the dict when no conversion is needed, saving 54.1% of function time_safe_format_url Simplification: Added
if not params: return templatecheck that completely bypasses the expensivetemplate.format_map(_SafeDict(params))operation when no path parameters exist (which is the common case in this API).Performance Impact Analysis:
From the line profiler data, the original
_as_str_dictspent 100% of its time (1.6ms) on dictionary comprehension for every call. The optimized version shows dramatic improvements:Similarly,
_safe_format_urlwent from 566μs total time with expensive format operations to just 173μs by early-returning the template string.Throughput Benefits: The 1.7% throughput improvement (92,303 → 93,835 ops/sec) demonstrates that these optimizations are particularly effective for high-frequency API calls where the same request patterns are repeated. The optimizations work best when:
These micro-optimizations compound significantly in HTTP client libraries where request preparation happens on every API call.
