__getattr__ by 34% in PR #1887 (codeflash_python)#1888Conversation
The optimized code replaces a linear chain of five `if name == "..."` comparisons with a single dictionary lookup into `_LAZY_IMPORTS`, then caches the resolved attribute in both `globals()` and a module-level `_LAZY_CACHE` to short-circuit future `__getattr__` calls. This avoids repeated string comparisons and redundant imports when the same attribute is accessed multiple times, cutting per-call overhead from ~2.3 µs to ~0.4 µs on cache hits (profiler shows the cache path takes only ~250 ns vs. ~1160 ns for the original branch-and-import pattern). The 34% speedup reflects faster repeated access across test scenarios that query the same class names.

Prek ChecksAll checks passed (ruff lint + format). No issues to fix. Two pre-existing mypy errors in
Code ReviewThe optimization is correct and the speedup is credible. Key changes:
One minor observation: No bugs, security issues, or breaking API changes found. The lazy import behavior is preserved correctly. Duplicate DetectionNo duplicates detected — this is a self-contained optimization of an existing function. Last updated: 2026-03-24 |
