📄 8% (0.08x) speedup for
HttpClientinchromadb/__init__.py⏱️ Runtime :
10.5 microseconds→9.73 microseconds(best of5runs)📝 Explanation and details
The optimized code achieves an 8% speedup through two main optimizations:
1. Conditional Type Conversion: Instead of unconditionally calling
str(),int(), andbool()on all parameters, the optimized version first checks if the value is already the correct type usingisinstance(). This avoids unnecessary type conversions when parameters are already properly typed (which is the common case).2. Efficient Attribute Access: The original code checks settings attributes using
settings.chroma_server_host and settings.chroma_server_host != host, which can trigger attribute access twice. The optimized version usesgetattr(settings, "chroma_server_host", None)to get the value once, then checks if it's not None before comparing.Performance Impact: The type checking optimization is particularly effective because most callers pass correctly-typed parameters (strings for host/tenant/database, int for port, bool for ssl). The
isinstance()check is faster than the actual type conversion, so we only pay the conversion cost when needed. The test results show this works especially well for conflict scenarios - the host conflict test runs 16-20% faster, demonstrating the benefit when dealing with pre-configured settings objects that already have the correct types.These optimizations maintain identical behavior while reducing unnecessary work in the common case where parameters are already correctly typed.
