📄 11% (0.11x) speedup for
_as_run_type_strinskyvern/services/webhook_service.py⏱️ Runtime :
864 microseconds→780 microseconds(best of104runs)📝 Explanation and details
The optimization reorders the type checks to prioritize the most common input types and uses more efficient type checking methods:
Key optimizations:
Early None check: Moves
run_type is Noneto the front, which is extremely fast (identity comparison) and handles a common case based on test results showing 119% speedup for None inputs.Faster string checking: Replaces
isinstance(run_type, str)withtype(run_type) is strfor the primary string path. Thetype()check is significantly faster thanisinstance()because it avoids method resolution order (MRO) traversal, leading to 40-60% speedups for string inputs.Preserved behavior: Keeps the original
isinstance(run_type, str)as a fallback to handle string subclasses, ensuring no behavioral changes.Performance impact by input type:
type()vsisinstance()optimizationContext relevance: The function is called from
_build_webhook_payload()during webhook processing, where string inputs from database fields or API responses would be common. The optimization prioritizes the expected common case (strings) while gracefully handling all input types, making webhook processing more efficient overall.The 10% overall speedup suggests string and None inputs dominate real-world usage patterns, making this optimization worthwhile for the webhook service's performance.
