📄 15% (0.15x) speedup for
Struct_mallinfo2.__str__ininvokeai/backend/model_manager/util/libc_util.py⏱️ Runtime :
7.46 microseconds→6.47 microseconds(best of250runs)📝 Explanation and details
The optimized code achieves a 15% performance improvement through three key optimizations:
1. Eliminated repeated division operations: The original code computed
2**30(GB divisor) 6 times per call. The optimized version precomputes this asGB = 2**30once, reducing redundant exponential calculations.2. Cached attribute lookups: Instead of repeatedly accessing
self.arena,self.ordblks, etc. within f-string expressions, the optimized version reads each attribute once and stores it in local variables. This eliminates repeated attribute resolution overhead.3. Replaced string concatenation with list joining: The original code used repeated
+=operations on strings, which creates new string objects each time due to Python's string immutability. The optimized version builds a list of strings and uses''.join(lines)at the end, which is significantly more memory-efficient and faster.The line profiler results show the optimization's effectiveness - while the original spent significant time on repeated divisions and string concatenations (lines with 700-800+ nanoseconds per hit), the optimized version distributes work more evenly with lower per-line overhead.
This optimization is particularly valuable for the memory management utility fields this struct represents, as
__str__is likely called frequently for debugging and monitoring purposes. The test results demonstrate consistent improvements across all scenarios - from simple zero-value cases to complex large-scale instances with maximum values - making this a robust optimization that maintains correctness while improving performance across diverse workloads.✅ Correctness verification report:
