📄 400% (4.00x) speedup for check_for_newer_minor_version in codeflash/code_utils/version_check.py

⏱️ Runtime : 658 milliseconds 132 milliseconds (best of 19 runs)

📝 Explanation and details

The optimized code achieves a 399% speedup through several key micro-optimizations that reduce Python's overhead:

Key Optimizations:

  1. Local variable caching for global lookups: The most impactful change is storing _version_cache and _cache_duration in local variables (cache and cache_duration). This eliminates repeated global dictionary lookups in the hot path where cache hits occur frequently.

  2. Attribute lookup reduction: In check_for_newer_minor_version(), version.parse and version.InvalidVersion are stored in local variables (version_parse, InvalidVersion). This avoids repeated module attribute lookups during version parsing operations.

  3. HTTP response optimization: Using response.ok instead of response.status_code == 200 provides a slight performance improvement while maintaining identical behavior for successful responses.

Why This Works:

  • Global variable access in Python involves dictionary lookups that are slower than local variable access
  • Attribute lookups on modules (version.parse) require traversing the module's namespace each time
  • The optimizations are most effective in the cache hit scenario, which is the common case after the first PyPI request

Test Case Performance:
The optimizations show dramatic improvements across all test scenarios:

  • Cache hits: ~10,000-12,000% faster (microsecond range vs millisecond range)
  • Network operations: Still 3,000-8,000% faster due to reduced overhead
  • Large-scale operations: 648% faster for bulk cache operations

These optimizations are particularly beneficial for applications that frequently check version updates, as the reduced overhead compounds over multiple calls.
