⚡️ Speed up function bit_resize by 14%

[codeflash-ai]

📄 14% (0.14x) speedup for bit_resize in aerospike_helpers/operations/bitwise_operations.py

⏱️ Runtime : 1.25 milliseconds → 1.10 milliseconds (best of 5 runs)

📝 Explanation and details

The optimized code achieves a 13% runtime improvement by reducing dictionary construction overhead through two key changes:

1. Pre-constructed Base Dictionary (_BIT_RESIZE_BASE)
The optimization creates a module-level base dictionary containing the static "op" key at import time. On each function call, this base is copied and populated with the dynamic values. This is faster than constructing a new dictionary from scratch because:

• Dictionary literals in Python require evaluating each key-value pair and calling internal hash/insert operations
• The dict.copy() method is implemented in C and optimized for shallow copying, making it faster than building a dictionary with 5 key-value pairs from scratch
• The static "op" key doesn't need to be re-evaluated on every call

2. Direct String Literals Instead of Module Constants
The original code uses module-level constants (OP_KEY, BIN_KEY, etc.) as dictionary keys, requiring attribute lookups on each access. The optimized version uses string literals directly ("bin", "policy", etc.), eliminating these lookups. While subtle, this saves a few nanoseconds per key access.

Performance Characteristics Based on Test Results:

• The optimization shows consistent improvements across all test cases (9-37% faster)
• Best gains appear in scenarios with simpler parameters (single calls, default parameters): 27-37% faster
• Large-scale tests maintain solid improvements: 10-15% faster when calling the function hundreds of times
• The improvement is most pronounced when the function is called repeatedly with varying parameters, as seen in the sequential and alternating parameter tests

Why This Works:
Python's dictionary construction involves multiple steps: allocating memory, hashing keys, and inserting key-value pairs. By pre-allocating the base structure and using the optimized copy() method, we reduce this overhead. The line profiler shows the original's dictionary literal construction took ~24% of total time just for the opening brace, while the optimized version's copy() operation is faster and more predictable.

This optimization is particularly valuable if bit_resize is called frequently in data processing pipelines or batch operations against Aerospike, where the cumulative savings across thousands of calls become significant.
