📄 31% (0.31x) speedup for _extract_type_body_context in codeflash/languages/java/context.py

⏱️ Runtime : 477 microseconds 364 microseconds (best of 40 runs)

📝 Explanation and details

This optimization achieves a 31% runtime improvement (from 477μs to 364μs) by eliminating redundant UTF-8 decoding operations and reducing attribute lookups.

Key optimizations:

  1. Eliminated repeated UTF-8 decoding: The original code called .decode("utf8") on byte slices multiple times per iteration (for enum constants and block comments). The optimized version introduces _slice_text_by_points() that extracts text directly from the already-decoded lines list, avoiding the overhead of repeated UTF-8 decoding operations.

  2. Reduced attribute lookups: Added local alias ls = lines and hoisted skip_types = ("{", "}", ";", ",") out of the loop, reducing repeated name resolutions in the hot path where body_node.children is iterated.

  3. Smarter text extraction: The helper function _slice_text_by_points() uses line/column coordinates instead of byte offsets, directly indexing into the decoded lines. This is faster because the lines array is already UTF-8 decoded when passed in, so we avoid re-decoding the same bytes multiple times.

Performance characteristics by test case:

  • Small inputs (1-5 nodes): 1-8% faster, showing overhead is minimal
  • Enum constant extraction: 6-13% faster due to avoiding decode per constant
  • Mixed workloads with Javadoc comments: 3-6% faster from eliminating comment decode overhead
  • Large scale (250 fields): roughly equivalent (~1% slower), indicating the optimization primarily benefits code paths with enum constants and block comments where decoding was repeated

Why this matters:
Line profiler shows the original code spent significant time in decode operations (lines with source_bytes[...].decode("utf8")). For Java source files with many enum constants or Javadoc comments, this optimization reduces the cumulative decode overhead across all iterations, resulting in the observed 31% speedup on representative workloads.
