⚡️ Speed up method OpenAIWhisperAudioTranscriptionConfig.get_error_class by 128%

[codeflash-ai]

📄 128% (1.28x) speedup for OpenAIWhisperAudioTranscriptionConfig.get_error_class in litellm/llms/openai/transcriptions/whisper_transformation.py

⏱️ Runtime : 24.2 milliseconds → 10.6 milliseconds (best of 171 runs)

📝 Explanation and details

The optimization changes the OpenAIError constructor call from using keyword arguments to positional arguments. Instead of OpenAIError(status_code=status_code, message=error_message, headers=headers), it uses OpenAIError(status_code, error_message, headers).

This seemingly minor change provides a 128% speedup because:

1. Reduced function call overhead: Positional arguments eliminate the need for Python to match parameter names with keyword arguments, reducing the interpreter's work during function calls.

2. Faster argument packing: Python can directly pass arguments without creating and processing a keyword dictionary, which saves CPU cycles especially when this method is called frequently.

3. Less memory allocation: Keyword argument calls require additional memory for storing the parameter name mappings, which is avoided with positional arguments.

The test results show this optimization is most effective for:

• High-frequency scenarios: The bulk test case shows 285% improvement when called 500 times
• Dictionary headers: Tests with dict headers show 150-180% improvements
• Standard use cases: Most basic error creation scenarios see 150-170% speedups

The optimization maintains identical behavior and signatures while providing consistent performance gains across all test scenarios, with particularly strong benefits in high-volume error handling situations.
