📄 37% (0.37x) speedup for update_openapi in src/titiler/core/titiler/core/utils.py

⏱️ Runtime : 93.1 microseconds 67.8 microseconds (best of 6 runs)

📝 Explanation and details

The optimized code achieves a 37% speedup by replacing Python's next() generator expression with a manual loop and early break pattern.

Key optimization:

  • Route search efficiency: The original code uses next(route for route in app.router.routes if route.path == app.openapi_url) which creates a generator expression and relies on Python's next() function with StopIteration exception handling. The optimized version uses a simple for loop with explicit break, avoiding generator overhead and exception-based control flow.

Why this is faster:

  • Generator expressions have initialization overhead and next() must handle potential StopIteration exceptions internally
  • Manual loops with early termination are more direct and avoid Python's exception handling machinery
  • The optimization is particularly effective when the OpenAPI route isn't the first route in the list, as seen in test cases with many routes

Performance characteristics:

  • Best improvements (40-60% speedup) occur in edge cases like missing routes or apps with many routes where the search might iterate further
  • Consistent 20-40% improvements across basic cases show the optimization benefits typical usage patterns
  • Multiple successive calls (idempotency tests) show 30-50% improvements, indicating the optimization compounds when the function is called repeatedly

Impact: This function appears to be called during application startup/configuration. While individual calls are microsecond-level, the optimization would be most beneficial in scenarios with many routes or when called multiple times during app initialization, making startup more responsive.
