⚡️ Speed up function get_chart_builder by 5%

[codeflash-ai]

📄 5% (0.05x) speedup for get_chart_builder in marimo/_data/charts.py

⏱️ Runtime : 2.63 milliseconds → 2.50 milliseconds (best of 13 runs)

📝 Explanation and details

The optimized code achieves a 5% speedup through two key micro-optimizations:

1. Local variable caching for global lookup reduction:
The optimization introduces Wrapper = WrapperChartBuilder at the function start, storing the global reference locally. This eliminates repeated global namespace lookups for WrapperChartBuilder on each return statement. In Python, local variable access is faster than global variable access because locals are stored in an array indexed by position rather than a dictionary lookup.

2. Set membership testing for date/time types:
The original code used chained or comparisons (column_type == "date" or column_type == "datetime" or column_type == "time"), which performs up to 3 string equality checks. The optimized version uses column_type in {"date", "datetime", "time"}, leveraging Python's highly optimized set membership testing with hash lookups, which is typically O(1) average case versus O(n) for sequential comparisons.

Performance impact analysis:
From the line profiler results, the date/time branch shows the most significant change - the original code performed 3 separate equality checks (lines with 5037, 4033, and 3013 hits), while the optimized version consolidates this into a single set membership check (6042 hits). The local variable optimization provides consistent small gains across all branches.

Test case effectiveness:
The optimizations show variable performance across test cases - generally 3-6% faster for most types, with some individual cases showing up to 25% improvement (integer type). The date/time types show mixed results in individual tests but benefit significantly in batch operations, where the set lookup advantage compounds. The large batch tests demonstrate the optimization's effectiveness at scale, showing 6-7% improvements when processing mixed types repeatedly.
