📄 14% (0.14x) speedup for
NWCServerPlugin.serialize_connection_uriinelectrum/plugins/nwc/nwcserver.py⏱️ Runtime :
387 microseconds→340 microseconds(best of249runs)📝 Explanation and details
The optimized code achieves a 13% speedup through three key optimizations that reduce redundant operations and improve string processing efficiency:
Key Optimizations:
Cached attribute lookups: The optimized version reads
self.config.NWC_RELAYandself.config.NOSTR_RELAYSonce at the beginning ofserialize_connection_uri()and stores them in local variables. This eliminates repeated attribute access within the loop, which the line profiler shows was consuming significant time (48.9% vs 48.4% for the initial query_params creation).Bounded string splitting: Instead of splitting the entire
NOSTR_RELAYSstring with.split(","), the optimized version uses.split(",", 5)to limit splits to only 6 parts maximum. This prevents unnecessary processing of very long relay lists since only the first 5 relays are used anyway. The test results show dramatic improvements for large relay lists - up to 108% faster for 1000 relays.Inline string construction: The final URI is constructed directly with
f"{base_uri}?{'&'.join(query_params)}"instead of creating an intermediatequery_stringvariable, eliminating one string allocation and assignment.Performance Impact by Test Case:
The optimizations are particularly effective for scenarios with many relays (common in production Nostr applications) while maintaining identical behavior and output format. The bounded splitting optimization prevents performance degradation as relay lists grow, making the function scale much better with large configurations.
