📄 12% (0.12x) speedup for EnvField.get_set_value_or in python/sglang/srt/environ.py

⏱️ Runtime : 84.2 microseconds 75.2 microseconds (best of 48 runs)

📝 Explanation and details

The optimized code achieves an 11% speedup through targeted micro-optimizations that reduce attribute lookups and function call overhead:

Key optimizations:

  1. Replaced os.getenv() with os.environ.get() - Direct dictionary access is faster than the function call wrapper, saving ~6μs in the get() method (45.6% vs 52.1% of execution time).

  2. Localized attribute lookups in hot paths - In get_set_value_or(), variables like env = os.environ and name = self.name are cached locally, eliminating repeated attribute access overhead. This is particularly effective since the line profiler shows this method is called 114 times in tests.

  3. Inlined condition checking - Instead of calling self.is_set() (which adds method call overhead), the condition name in env or self._set_to_none is evaluated directly in get_set_value_or(), reducing the call from 6550ns per hit to under 3000ns per hit.

Performance impact by test case:

  • Tests with unset environment variables see the biggest gains (9-17% faster) since they benefit most from the inlined condition check that avoids the expensive get() call
  • Large-scale tests with 100+ fields show 12.1% improvement, demonstrating the cumulative effect of reduced attribute lookups
  • The optimization is particularly valuable for cases where get_set_value_or() is called repeatedly with unset variables, as it can return the or_value directly without expensive environment parsing

The changes maintain identical functionality while optimizing the common code paths where environment variables are frequently checked but often unset.
