💡 What: The optimization implemented
Changed the dictionary iteration in
bionetgen/core/tools/gdiff.pyfromfor graph_name in graphs.keys():tofor graph_name in graphs:.🎯 Why: The performance problem it solves
Calling
.keys()on a dictionary creates a dictionary view object unnecessarily. Iterating directly over the dictionary yields the keys, which is faster and more idiomatic Python.📊 Measured Improvement:
Using
timeiton 1,000,000 runs, the original method (d.keys()) took 1.637 seconds, while the optimized method (d) took 1.410 seconds. This is an improvement of ~13.8%. Although the absolute time saved per call is small, it avoids an unnecessary object allocation in the loop overhead.PR created automatically by Jules for task 17769704994653849356 started by @akutuva21
