Optimize _compare_hypothesis_tests_semantic
The optimized code achieves a **32% speedup** by eliminating redundant data structures and reducing iteration overhead through two key optimizations: **1. Single-pass aggregation instead of list accumulation:** - **Original**: Uses `defaultdict(list)` to collect all `FunctionTestInvocation` objects per test function, then later iterates through these lists to compute failure flags with `any(not ex.did_pass for ex in orig_examples)` - **Optimized**: Uses plain dicts with 2-element lists `[count, had_failure]` to track both example count and failure status in a single pass, eliminating the need to store individual test objects or re-scan them **2. Reduced memory allocation and access patterns:** - **Original**: Creates and stores complete lists of test objects (up to 9,458 objects in large test cases), then performs expensive `any()` operations over these lists - **Optimized**: Uses compact 2-item lists per test function, avoiding object accumulation and expensive linear scans The line profiler shows the key performance gains: - Lines with `any(not ex.did_pass...)` in original (10.1% and 10.2% of total time) are completely eliminated - The `setdefault()` operations replace the more expensive `defaultdict(list).append()` calls - Overall reduction from storing ~9,458 objects to just tracking summary statistics **Best performance gains** occur in test cases with: - **Large numbers of examples per test function** (up to 105% faster for `test_large_scale_all_fail`) - **Many distinct test functions** (up to 75% faster for `test_large_scale_some_failures`) - **Mixed pass/fail scenarios** where the original's `any()` operations were most expensive The optimization maintains identical behavior while dramatically reducing both memory usage and computational complexity from O(examples) to O(1) per test function group.
