📄 33% (0.33x) speedup for
AsyncOperationPool._get_operationinskyvern/forge/async_operations.py⏱️ Runtime :
73.7 microseconds→55.3 microseconds(best of250runs)📝 Explanation and details
The optimization replaces exception-based dictionary access with defensive
.get()calls, eliminating the overhead of Python's exception handling mechanism.Key Changes:
try/except KeyErrorwhich creates expensive exception objects when keys don't exist. The optimized version usesdict.get(key)which returnsNonefor missing keys without exceptions.self._operations[task_id][agent_phase](which can raise KeyError twice), the code first gets the task's operations with.get(task_id), then gets the specific phase with.get(agent_phase).Why This is Faster:
Python exception handling involves significant overhead - creating exception objects, unwinding the call stack, and executing exception handlers. The profiler shows 156 KeyError exceptions out of 229 calls (68% miss rate), meaning most lookups were triggering this expensive path. Dictionary
.get()operations are much faster as they're implemented in C and avoid the exception machinery entirely.Performance Impact:
The test results show this optimization is particularly effective for "not found" scenarios:
Best Use Cases:
This optimization excels when the
AsyncOperationPoolfrequently queries for non-existent operations, which appears common in this codebase given the high miss rate in profiling. The tradeoff of slightly slower "found" cases for dramatically faster "not found" cases results in a net 33% speedup overall.✅ Correctness verification report:
