📄 42% (0.42x) speedup for ImportResolver._is_external_package in codeflash/languages/javascript/import_resolver.py

⏱️ Runtime : 539 microseconds → 379 microseconds (best of 194 runs)

📝 Explanation and details

The optimization achieves a 41% runtime improvement (539μs → 379μs) by consolidating four sequential startswith() checks into a single tuple-based check.

Key optimization: Python's str.startswith() method accepts a tuple of prefixes and performs the check in optimized C code, scanning the string once rather than four times. The original code made four separate method calls:

if module_path.startswith("."):
    return False
if module_path.startswith("/"):
    return False
if module_path.startswith("@/"):
    return False
if module_path.startswith("~/"):
    return False

The optimized version combines these into one check:

if module_path.startswith((".", "/", "@/", "~/")):
    return False

Why this is faster:

1. Single method call overhead: Reduces four method invocations to one
2. Single string scan: The internal C implementation scans the string once to test all prefixes, rather than potentially scanning up to four times
3. Short-circuit evaluation: Once any prefix matches, the check completes immediately

Line profiler evidence: The original code spent 1,745,286ns across multiple checks (30.5% + 23.7% + 16.4% + 12.4% = 83% of total time). The optimized version completes the same logic in 709,412ns (64.6% of total time), representing a ~60% reduction in the critical path.

Test case analysis: The optimization excels across all scenarios:

• Alias patterns (@/ and ~/): 28-73% faster since these previously required checking three prefixes before matching
• Bare imports (external packages): 40-83% faster as they now fail all four prefix checks in a single operation
• Large-scale batches: 42-73% faster for mixed workloads and scoped packages

The optimization maintains identical behavior and correctness while delivering consistent performance gains across all import types commonly found in JavaScript/TypeScript projects.
