📄 17% (0.17x) speedup for _create_mock_context in pdd/sync_orchestration.py

⏱️ Runtime : 277 microseconds 237 microseconds (best of 476 runs)

📝 Explanation and details

The optimization introduces command object caching by moving click.Command('sync') creation from inside the function to a module-level constant _SYNC_COMMAND. This eliminates the repeated construction of the same Command object on every function call.

Key Changes:

  • Added _SYNC_COMMAND = click.Command('sync') at module level
  • Changed click.Context(click.Command('sync')) to click.Context(_SYNC_COMMAND)

Why This Is Faster:
Object creation in Python has overhead - each click.Command('sync') call involves memory allocation, attribute initialization, and potential string processing. By caching this immutable object, we eliminate this repeated work. The line profiler shows the critical line dropped from 15,186ns per hit to 10,967ns per hit (28% improvement on the bottleneck line).

Test Case Performance:

  • Small/simple cases: 28-35% speedup (most common usage patterns)
  • Large kwargs cases: 2-8% speedup (overhead becomes relatively smaller)
  • Repeated calls: Up to 48% speedup on subsequent calls due to reduced allocation pressure

This optimization is particularly effective for frequently called utility functions where the same Command object is recreated unnecessarily, making it ideal for mock/test scenarios where _create_mock_context might be called repeatedly.

The optimization introduces **command object caching** by moving `click.Command('sync')` creation from inside the function to a module-level constant `_SYNC_COMMAND`. This eliminates the repeated construction of the same Command object on every function call.

**Key Changes:**
- Added `_SYNC_COMMAND = click.Command('sync')` at module level
- Changed `click.Context(click.Command('sync'))` to `click.Context(_SYNC_COMMAND)`

**Why This Is Faster:**
Object creation in Python has overhead - each `click.Command('sync')` call involves memory allocation, attribute initialization, and potential string processing. By caching this immutable object, we eliminate this repeated work. The line profiler shows the critical line dropped from 15,186ns per hit to 10,967ns per hit (28% improvement on the bottleneck line).

**Test Case Performance:**
