📄 0% (0.00x) speedup for task in src/async_examples/concurrency.py

⏱️ Runtime : 3.01 seconds 3.00 seconds (best of 5 runs)

📝 Explanation and details

The optimization replaces the blocking time.sleep(1) with the non-blocking await asyncio.sleep(1). This is a critical fix for async code correctness rather than a speed improvement for single task execution.

Key changes:

  • Replaced blocking call: time.sleep(1) blocks the entire event loop, preventing any concurrency
  • Added proper async sleep: await asyncio.sleep(1) yields control back to the event loop, enabling true asynchronous behavior
  • Import change: Switched from time to asyncio module

Why this matters:
The line profiler shows the optimized version completes its function logic in 0.000169s vs 3.01s because asyncio.sleep() immediately yields control and the profiler only measures the function's active execution time, not the sleep duration. The blocking time.sleep() keeps the function actively running for the full second.

Concurrency benefits:
While single task execution shows no speedup (both still wait 1 second), the optimized version enables proper async concurrency. When running multiple tasks with asyncio.gather(), the optimized version allows all tasks to sleep simultaneously rather than sequentially, providing dramatic speedups (100 concurrent tasks complete in ~1 second instead of ~100 seconds).

This optimization is essential for any async code that needs to work with multiple concurrent operations or integrate properly with async frameworks.
