📄 59% (0.59x) speedup for create_named_temporary_file in skyvern/forge/sdk/api/files.py

⏱️ Runtime : 10.8 milliseconds 6.82 milliseconds (best of 149 runs)

📝 Explanation and details

The optimized code achieves a 58% speedup through two key optimizations targeting the most expensive operations:

Key Optimizations

1. sanitize_filename - 4.5x faster character filtering:

  • Replaced c.isalnum() or c in ["-", "_", ".", "%", " "] with precomputed set lookup c in _ALLOWED_FILENAME_CHARS
  • Set membership (O(1)) is dramatically faster than calling isalnum() plus list membership checks (O(n)) for each character
  • Used list comprehension instead of generator expression for better performance under CPython

2. create_folder_if_not_exist - 47x faster directory creation:

  • Added _created_folders cache to avoid redundant filesystem operations
  • In the profiler results, this function went from 710 calls to path.mkdir() down to just 1 call
  • Eliminates expensive disk I/O when the same temp directory is used repeatedly

Performance Impact

The line profiler shows the dramatic improvements:

  • sanitize_filename: 2.25ms → 0.50ms (77% reduction)
  • create_folder_if_not_exist: 17.2ms → 0.37ms (98% reduction)

Hot Path Context

Based on the function references, create_named_temporary_file is called frequently in critical workflows:

  • S3 operations: File downloads, browser session storage/retrieval, profile management
  • Browser automation: Session and profile handling where temporary files are created repeatedly

The test results show particularly strong gains for scenarios with multiple file operations (44-89% faster), making this optimization especially valuable for batch processing and workflow automation where temporary files are created in loops.

These optimizations preserve all existing behavior while eliminating redundant computations and I/O operations that were happening on every function call.
