The optimization replaces the blocking
time.sleep(1)
with the non-blockingawait asyncio.sleep(1)
. This is a critical fix for async code correctness rather than a speed improvement for single task execution.Key changes:
time.sleep(1)
blocks the entire event loop, preventing any concurrencyawait asyncio.sleep(1)
yields control back to the event loop, enabling true asynchronous behaviortime

moduleWhy 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 blockingtime.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.
