📄 7% (0.07x) speedup for _check_example_success_history in pdd/sync_determine_operation.py

⏱️ Runtime : 23.6 milliseconds 22.1 milliseconds (best of 19 runs)

📝 Explanation and details

The optimization removes unnecessary mkdir() system calls from read operations and slightly improves file globbing efficiency, resulting in a 6% speedup.

Key optimizations:

  • Eliminated directory creation on reads: Removed meta_dir.mkdir(parents=True, exist_ok=True) from read_fingerprint() and read_run_report(). Directory creation is only needed for write operations, not reads. This saves expensive filesystem syscalls on every function call.
  • Pre-collected glob results: Changed from iterating directly over meta_dir.glob() to first collecting results with list(meta_dir.glob()). While this doesn't fundamentally change the algorithm, it makes the iteration pattern more explicit and avoids potential iterator overhead.

Why this is faster:

  • Each mkdir() call involves multiple syscalls (stat, mkdir if needed) even with exist_ok=True
  • From the line profiler, the mkdir() calls consumed ~19.5% and ~16.2% of execution time in the original read functions
  • The optimization particularly benefits workloads with many file reads and few writes

Test case performance:
The optimization shows consistent 6-18% improvements across all test cases, with the most significant gains in scenarios involving:

  • Multiple file reads (fingerprint + run report operations)
  • Large numbers of historical run reports (4-8% improvement even with 1000+ files)
  • Corrupt file handling (avoiding unnecessary mkdir before file validation fails)

The core file I/O and JSON parsing remain the dominant bottlenecks, but removing these unnecessary syscalls provides meaningful performance gains for read-heavy workloads.

Codeflash

The optimization removes unnecessary `mkdir()` system calls from read operations and slightly improves file globbing efficiency, resulting in a **6% speedup**.

**Key optimizations:**
- **Eliminated directory creation on reads**: Removed `meta_dir.mkdir(parents=True, exist_ok=True)` from `read_fingerprint()` and `read_run_report()`. Directory creation is only needed for write operations, not reads. This saves expensive filesystem syscalls on every function call.
- **Pre-collected glob results**: Changed from iterating directly over `meta_dir.glob()` to first collecting results with `list(meta_dir.glob())`. While this doesn't fundamentally change the algorithm, it makes the iteration pattern more explicit and avoids potential iterator overhead.

**Why this is faster:**
- Each `mkdir()` call involves multiple syscalls (stat, mkdir if needed) even with `exist_ok=True`
- From the line profiler, the `mkdir()` calls consumed ~19.5% and ~16.2% of execution time in the original read functions
- The optimization particularly benefits workloads with many file reads and few writes

**Test case performance:**
The optimization shows consistent 6-18% improvements across all test cases, with the most significant gains in scenarios involving:
- Multiple file reads (fingerprint + run report operations)
- Large numbers of historical run reports (4-8% improvement even with 1000+ files)
- Corrupt file handling (avoiding unnecessary mkdir before file validation fails)

The core file I/O and JSON parsing remain the dominant bottlenecks, but removing these unnecessary syscalls provides meaningful performance gains for read-heavy workloads.
