Optimize extract_sentrytrace_data
The optimization adds length checks before expensive string formatting operations. Specifically: **Key Changes:** - Added `len(trace_id) != 32` check before `"{:032x}".format(int(trace_id, 16))` - Added `len(parent_span_id) != 16` check before `"{:016x}".format(int(parent_span_id, 16))` **Why It's Faster:** The original code always performed string-to-int conversion and formatting, even when the trace_id/span_id were already properly formatted. The optimization skips these expensive operations when the strings are already the correct length (32 hex chars for trace_id, 16 for span_id). The `int(trace_id, 16)` and `"{:032x}".format()` operations are computationally expensive, involving: - Hexadecimal string parsing - Integer conversion - String formatting with zero-padding **Performance Impact:** Test results show the optimization is most effective when trace IDs and span IDs are already properly formatted (which is common in production). Cases like `test_valid_full_header` show 51.6% speedup, and `test_missing_trace_id` shows 65.9% speedup. The optimization has minimal overhead for cases where formatting is still needed, with only small gains (1-7%) for malformed inputs. This is particularly valuable for high-throughput tracing scenarios where most headers contain well-formatted trace data.
