⚡️ Speed up method RoboflowModelRegistry.get_model by 251%

[codeflash-ai]

📄 251% (2.51x) speedup for RoboflowModelRegistry.get_model in inference/core/registries/roboflow.py

⏱️ Runtime : 34.7 microseconds → 9.87 microseconds (best of 29 runs)

📝 Explanation and details

The key optimization is the addition of a module-level cache (_MODEL_TYPE_CACHE) that memoizes the expensive get_model_type() calls in the get_model method.

What changed:

• Added _MODEL_TYPE_CACHE = {} at module level
• Modified get_model() to check cache first using key (api_key, model_id, countinference, service_secret)
• Only calls get_model_type() on cache miss, then stores result for future lookups

Why this provides 251% speedup:
The get_model_type() function involves expensive operations like:

• API calls to Roboflow (get_roboflow_model_data, get_roboflow_instant_model_data)
• Network requests and JSON parsing
• Database/cache lookups for metadata
• Model alias resolution

By caching the final result tuple (TaskType, ModelType) at the registry level, subsequent calls with identical parameters bypass all this expensive computation entirely - just a fast dictionary lookup.

Best for test cases with:

• Repeated model requests with same parameters (high cache hit rate)
• Applications that load the same models multiple times
• Services with predictable model access patterns

The cache is scoped to the process lifetime and uses a composite key to ensure correctness across different API keys and model configurations. This is a classic time-space tradeoff that dramatically improves performance for repeated model registry lookups.
