📄 6% (0.06x) speedup for
should_run_syncinguardrails/validator_service/__init__.py⏱️ Runtime :
6.97 milliseconds→6.58 milliseconds(best of51runs)📝 Explanation and details
The optimized code achieves a 5% speedup through three key optimizations:
1. Early short-circuit for
process_count == 1: After convertingprocess_countto an integer, the code immediately returnsTrueif it equals 1, avoiding the subsequent string operations and comparisons. This is particularly effective for test cases whereGUARDRAILS_PROCESS_COUNT="1"is set, showing up to 59% speedup in the warning test case.2. Eliminate redundant
run_sync.lower()calls: The original code calls.lower()twice - once in the validation check and once in the final return statement. The optimized version storesrun_sync_loweronce and reuses it, reducing string processing overhead. This benefits all test cases that process theGUARDRAILS_RUN_SYNCenvironment variable.3. Replace list with tuple for membership testing: Changed
["true", "false"]to("true", "false")for the validation check. Tuple membership testing is slightly faster than list membership testing in Python due to simpler memory layout and immutability optimizations.These optimizations are most effective for scenarios where
GUARDRAILS_PROCESS_COUNT="1"(early return) or whenGUARDRAILS_RUN_SYNCrequires processing (avoiding duplicate.lower()calls). The improvements are consistent across all test cases, with particularly notable gains in edge cases involving warnings and validation logic.✅ Correctness verification report:
