📄 7% (0.07x) speedup for
BookStackDataSource.update_roleinbackend/python/app/sources/external/bookstack/bookstack.py⏱️ Runtime :
3.17 milliseconds→2.97 milliseconds(best of230runs)📝 Explanation and details
The optimized code achieves a 7% runtime improvement through two key changes:
1. String Formatting Optimization
self.base_url + "/api/roles/{id}".format(id=id)f"{self.base_url}/api/roles/{id}".format()calls. The line profiler shows URL construction time reduced from 629.8ns to 351.9ns per hit (44% faster for this operation)2. Headers Copy Method
dict(self.http.headers)self.http.headers.copy().copy()method avoids the overhead of thedict()constructor when the source is already a dictionary, reducing time from 363.1ns to 326.6ns per hit (10% faster)Why These Optimizations Matter:
.format().copy()is a native dict method that's more efficient than constructor-based copyingTest Performance:
The optimizations show consistent benefits across all test scenarios, with throughput improving by 0.4% (168,773 to 169,510 ops/sec). The improvements are most noticeable in large-scale concurrent tests where string operations are executed hundreds of times rapidly.
