⚡️ Speed up function __getattr__ by 10%

[codeflash-ai]

📄 10% (0.10x) speedup for __getattr__ in quantecon/compute_fp.py

⏱️ Runtime : 2.13 milliseconds → 1.94 milliseconds (best of 158 runs)

📝 Explanation and details

The optimization achieves a 10% speedup by eliminating redundant string formatting operations in the deprecation warning message.

Key changes:

• Removed f-string interpolation: The original code used f"Please use {name}from thequantecon namespace" and f"from quantecon import {name}", which required runtime string formatting for each function call
• Used static string: Replaced with hardcoded "Please use compute_fixed_pointfrom thequantecon namespace" since __all__ contains only one item ('compute_fixed_point')

Why this improves performance:
The line profiler shows the warning generation originally took ~80% of execution time (6.04e+06 ns out of 7.569e+06 ns total). String formatting with f-strings requires:

1. Variable lookup (name)
2. String interpolation processing
3. New string object creation

The optimized version eliminates these steps by using a pre-constructed static string, reducing the warning generation overhead.

Impact on workloads:
Since this is a deprecation shim that triggers warnings on every attribute access, the optimization benefits any code still using the deprecated quantecon.compute_fp namespace. The test results show consistent 7-10% improvements across repeated calls, with the test_getattr_performance_many_calls showing the optimization scales well (10.5% faster for 1000 calls).

Test case performance:
The optimization is most effective for scenarios with frequent attribute access, as demonstrated by the large-scale test cases showing sustained ~10% improvements. Error cases (invalid attributes) show minimal impact since they bypass the warning path entirely.
