⚡️Codeflash found 11% (0.11x) speedup for AssertCleanup._first_top_level_arg in codeflash/code_utils/concolic_utils.py

⏱️ Runtime : 1.18 milliseconds → 1.07 milliseconds (best of 109 runs)

📝 Explanation and details

The optimized code achieves a 10% speedup by replacing two separate string membership checks with a single dictionary lookup.

Key Optimization:
In the original code, checking whether a character is an opening or closing bracket requires two in operations on string literals:

if ch in "([{":      # Check if opening bracket
    depth += 1
elif ch in ")]}":    # Check if closing bracket  
    depth -= 1

The optimized version consolidates this into a single dictionary lookup:

_depth_changes = {
    '(': 1, '[': 1, '{': 1,
    ')': -1, ']': -1, '}': -1
}
if ch in _depth_changes:
    depth += _depth_changes[ch]

Why This Is Faster:

• Single lookup vs. two checks: Dictionary membership testing (ch in _depth_changes) is O(1) and only needs to be performed once, whereas the original code could potentially perform two string membership checks per character
• Direct value retrieval: The dictionary immediately provides both the "is this a bracket?" check and the depth change value in one operation, eliminating the need for separate conditional branches
• Reduced branching: From 3 branches (if/elif/elif) down to 2 branches (if/elif), which reduces branch prediction overhead

Performance Profile:
From the line profiler results, the optimization particularly improves the two hottest lines:

• Bracket checking: Original spent ~44% of time (25.2% + 19.1%) on the two ch in checks; optimized spends ~31% on the single dictionary check
• The overall loop iteration time improved from 29% to 34.8% (proportionally faster relative to reduced total time)

Test Case Performance:
The optimization performs best on:

• Large-scale tests with many brackets: Tests like test_long_first_argument (34.4% faster), test_large_list_as_first_argument (27.2% faster), and test_large_dict_as_first_argument (25.4% faster) show significant gains because they process many bracket characters
• Simple cases are slightly slower: Small tests (typically <3μs) show 5-30% slowdowns due to dictionary creation overhead, but these represent negligible absolute time differences (often <500ns)

The optimization trades a small setup cost (creating a 6-entry dictionary) for faster per-character processing, making it ideal for processing typical argument strings with multiple brackets—the common use case for this parsing utility.

[aseembits93]

wonder if the .partition optimization you found for pypa packaging could apply here @KRRT7

[KRRT7]

good idea, I'll try it out

[aseembits93]

_first_top_level_arg should have some unit tests

[aseembits93]

the older _split_top_level_args is not used anywhere else I believe, you can remove it

[aseembits93]

there could be some edge cases in this function, you should write some unit test cases for this.

[KRRT7]

@aseembits93 added tests
