📄 25% (0.25x) speedup for PropertyValueDict.__delitem__ in src/bokeh/core/property/wrappers.py

⏱️ Runtime : 2.03 microseconds 1.62 microsecondss (best of 192 runs)

📝 Explanation and details

The optimized code achieves a 25% speedup through three specific low-level optimizations that reduce Python interpreter overhead:

Key Optimizations Applied:

  1. Added __slots__ = () - This prevents Python from creating a __dict__ for each instance, saving memory allocation overhead. Since PropertyValueDict inherits all needed attributes from its parent classes, no instance dictionary is required.

  2. Explicit parent class initialization - Instead of using super().__init__() which traverses the Method Resolution Order (MRO), the code directly calls dict.__init__() and PropertyValueContainer.__init__(). This eliminates the computational cost of MRO traversal and method lookup.

  3. Direct dict.__delitem__() call - The __delitem__ method now calls dict.__delitem__(self, y) directly instead of super().__delitem__(y), avoiding MRO traversal and eliminating the unnecessary return value handling (the original code returned None from super().__delitem__() which was unused).

Why This Leads to Speedup:
These optimizations reduce Python's method resolution overhead and memory allocation costs. The __slots__ optimization is particularly effective for classes that will be instantiated frequently, while the direct method calls eliminate interpreter overhead in method lookup chains.

Performance Profile:
Based on the test results, the optimization maintains identical functionality across all test cases - from basic key deletion to large-scale operations (1000+ keys) and edge cases with special characters and Unicode keys. The 25% speedup is most beneficial for workloads that create many PropertyValueDict instances or perform frequent deletion operations, which is common in Bokeh's property system for UI component management.
