📄 9% (0.09x) speedup for _sphinx_type_link in src/bokeh/core/property/required.py

⏱️ Runtime : 663 microseconds 608 microseconds (best of 250 runs)

📝 Explanation and details

The optimization introduces an LRU cache to avoid redundant string formatting operations in the property_link function. The key changes are:

What was optimized:

  • Extracted string formatting logic into a separate cached function _property_link_class_name(cls: type) decorated with @lru_cache(maxsize=128)
  • Changed obj.__class__ to type(obj) for more direct type retrieval
  • Cached the expensive string interpolation f":class:~bokeh.core.properties.{cls.name}\\ " based on class type

Why this improves performance:
The original code performed string formatting on every call to property_link, even when the same class types were processed repeatedly. With the LRU cache, identical class types only compute the formatted string once and reuse the cached result. Since Sphinx documentation generation typically processes many objects of the same types (like Required, int, str, etc.), this caching provides significant benefit.

Performance impact:

  • 9% overall speedup (663μs → 608μs runtime)
  • Per-hit improvement in property_link: 340.4ns → 325.1ns per call (4.5% faster per call)
  • The line profiler shows similar hit counts but reduced total time, confirming the caching benefit

Test case effectiveness:
The optimization excels with repeated class types - test cases with builtin types (int, str, list, dict) and identical custom classes show 10-40% speedups. The cache is less beneficial for unique class types (some tests show slight slowdowns due to cache overhead), but the overall workload benefits since documentation generation typically involves many instances of common property types.

The maxsize=128 limit prevents unbounded memory growth while accommodating the typical variety of property classes in Bokeh's documentation generation.

The optimization introduces an **LRU cache** to avoid redundant string formatting operations in the `property_link` function. The key changes are:

**What was optimized:**
- **Extracted string formatting logic** into a separate cached function `_property_link_class_name(cls: type)` decorated with `@lru_cache(maxsize=128)`
- **Changed `obj.__class__` to `type(obj)`** for more direct type retrieval
- **Cached the expensive string interpolation** `f":class:`~bokeh.core.properties.{cls.__name__}`\\ "` based on class type

**Why this improves performance:**
The original code performed string formatting on every call to `property_link`, even when the same class types were processed repeatedly. With the LRU cache, identical class types only compute the formatted string once and reuse the cached result. Since Sphinx documentation generation typically processes many objects of the same types (like `Required`, `int`, `str`, etc.), this caching provides significant benefit.

**Performance impact:**
- **9% overall speedup** (663μs → 608μs runtime)
- **Per-hit improvement** in `property_link`: 340.4ns → 325.1ns per call (4.5% faster per call)
- The line profiler shows similar hit counts but reduced total time, confirming the caching benefit

**Test case effectiveness:**
The optimization excels with **repeated class types** - test cases with builtin types (`int`, `str`, `list`, `dict`) and identical custom classes show 10-40% speedups. The cache is less beneficial for unique class types (some tests show slight slowdowns due to cache overhead), but the overall workload benefits since documentation generation typically involves many instances of common property types.

The `maxsize=128` limit prevents unbounded memory growth while accommodating the typical variety of property classes in Bokeh's documentation generation.
