📄 868% (8.68x) speedup for fetch_all_users in src/asynchrony/various.py

⏱️ Runtime : 200 milliseconds 20.7 milliseconds (best of 250 runs)

📝 Explanation and details

The optimized code achieves an 868% speedup by replacing sequential async operations with concurrent execution using asyncio.gather().

Key optimization: The original code processes user fetches sequentially in a loop - each await fetch_user(user_id) blocks until that individual operation completes before starting the next one. This means for N users, the total time is roughly N × 0.0001 seconds (the sleep duration).

The optimized version creates all coroutines upfront with a list comprehension, then uses asyncio.gather(*coros) to execute them concurrently. All asyncio.sleep(0.0001) calls now run in parallel, so the total time becomes approximately 0.0001 seconds regardless of the number of users.

Performance impact:

  • Runtime improvement: From 200ms to 20.7ms (868% faster)
  • Throughput improvement: From 2,907 to 14,250 operations/second (390% increase)

Why this works: The line profiler shows the original code spent 96.8% of its time in the await fetch_user(user_id) line within the sequential loop. The optimized version eliminates this bottleneck by allowing all I/O operations to overlap.

Test case benefits: The optimization is most effective for larger user lists (the throughput tests with 50-500 users show the greatest gains). For single users or empty lists, the improvement is minimal since there's no concurrency benefit. The concurrent test cases demonstrate that the optimization maintains correctness while dramatically improving performance when processing multiple users simultaneously.

Behavioral preservation: The function maintains identical output ordering, error handling, and return types - only the execution strategy changes from sequential to concurrent.

The optimized code achieves an **868% speedup** by replacing sequential async operations with concurrent execution using `asyncio.gather()`.

**Key optimization:** The original code processes user fetches sequentially in a loop - each `await fetch_user(user_id)` blocks until that individual operation completes before starting the next one. This means for N users, the total time is roughly N × 0.0001 seconds (the sleep duration).

The optimized version creates all coroutines upfront with a list comprehension, then uses `asyncio.gather(*coros)` to execute them concurrently. All `asyncio.sleep(0.0001)` calls now run in parallel, so the total time becomes approximately 0.0001 seconds regardless of the number of users.

**Performance impact:** 
- **Runtime improvement:** From 200ms to 20.7ms (868% faster)
- **Throughput improvement:** From 2,907 to 14,250 operations/second (390% increase)

**Why this works:** The line profiler shows the original code spent 96.8% of its time in the `await fetch_user(user_id)` line within the sequential loop. The optimized version eliminates this bottleneck by allowing all I/O operations to overlap.

**Test case benefits:** The optimization is most effective for larger user lists (the throughput tests with 50-500 users show the greatest gains). For single users or empty lists, the improvement is minimal since there's no concurrency benefit. The concurrent test cases demonstrate that the optimization maintains correctness while dramatically improving performance when processing multiple users simultaneously.

**Behavioral preservation:** The function maintains identical output ordering, error handling, and return types - only the execution strategy changes from sequential to concurrent.
