📄 12% (0.12x) speedup for RestClientInterface.OPTIONS in pinecone/openapi_support/rest_utils.py

⏱️ Runtime : 38.7 microseconds 34.5 microseconds (best of 676 runs)

📝 Explanation and details

The optimized code achieves a 12% speedup through two key optimizations:

1. Added __slots__ = () to the abstract base class
This prevents Python from creating a __dict__ for each instance, reducing memory overhead and slightly improving attribute access speed. While minimal for this abstract class, it's a zero-cost optimization that benefits all subclasses.

2. Converted keyword arguments to positional arguments in the OPTIONS method
The original code used keyword argument syntax (headers=headers, query_params=query_params, etc.) which requires Python to:

  • Pack arguments into a dictionary
  • Unpack and match parameter names at call time

The optimized version passes all arguments positionally in the correct order, eliminating this overhead. The line profiler shows this reduced the OPTIONS method execution time from 150.791μs to 85.611μs (43% reduction in method overhead).

Performance gains are consistent across test cases:

  • Simple calls show 14-26% improvements
  • Large data scenarios (1000+ elements) show 7-21% gains
  • Edge cases with unusual types benefit 13-21%

This optimization is particularly effective for REST client code where the OPTIONS method may be called frequently in API interactions. The positional argument approach is safe since the request method signature is fixed and abstract, ensuring parameter order remains stable.
