⚡️ Speed up method RegistryToolWrapper._execute_class_method by 21%

[codeflash-ai]

📄 21% (0.21x) speedup for RegistryToolWrapper._execute_class_method in backend/python/app/modules/agents/qna/tool_registry.py

⏱️ Runtime : 97.9 microseconds → 80.9 microseconds (best of 23 runs)

📝 Explanation and details

The optimized code achieves a 20% speedup through several targeted micro-optimizations that reduce redundant operations and improve module lookup efficiency:

Key Optimizations:

1. Smarter Parameter Processing: The original code used getattr(registry_tool, 'parameters', []) or [] which performs unnecessary list allocation even when parameters don't exist. The optimized version uses getattr(registry_tool, 'parameters', None) and only processes parameters if they actually exist, eliminating wasted formatting operations.

2. Module Import Caching: The most significant optimization replaces expensive __import__ calls with sys.modules lookup. Since Python modules are cached after first import, checking sys.modules first avoids the costly import machinery when the module is already loaded. The line profiler shows __import__ taking 18.4% of execution time in the original version.

3. Optimized String Splitting: Changed qualname.split('.') to qualname.split('.', 1) to limit splitting to just the first occurrence, avoiding unnecessary string processing when class names contain multiple dots.

4. Local Variable Binding: In _create_tool_instance_with_factory, frequently accessed instance variables (self.app_name, self.state) are bound to local variables, reducing attribute lookup overhead for repeated access.

5. Improved Exception Handling: Separated import failures from instance creation failures with more specific error messages and distinct try-catch blocks, reducing exception handling overhead.

Performance Impact: The test results show consistent 10-25% improvements across various edge cases, with the optimizations being particularly effective for:

• Scenarios with missing dependencies (24% faster)
• Error conditions like missing methods (22% faster)
• Standard execution paths (16-23% faster)

These optimizations are especially valuable since this wrapper appears to be used in tool execution pipelines where it may be called repeatedly, making the cumulative performance gains significant for agent-based applications.
