📄 269% (2.69x) speedup for fetch_all_users in src/asynchrony/various.py

⏱️ Runtime : 885 milliseconds 749 milliseconds (best of 155 runs)

📝 Explanation and details

The optimization transforms the sequential async execution into concurrent execution using asyncio.gather(), delivering an 18% runtime improvement and a remarkable 269% throughput increase.

Key Changes:

  • Sequential → Concurrent: The original code awaited each fetch_user() call sequentially in a loop, while the optimized version creates all coroutines upfront and executes them concurrently with asyncio.gather(*tasks)
  • Eliminated blocking waits: Instead of waiting 0.0001 seconds per user sequentially, all sleep operations now run in parallel

Why This Speeds Up Performance:
The line profiler reveals the bottleneck: 96% of execution time was spent in await fetch_user() calls within the loop. Since fetch_user() contains an async sleep (simulating database I/O), the original code was blocked waiting for each request to complete before starting the next one. The optimized version leverages Python's async concurrency model to overlap these I/O waits, dramatically reducing total execution time.

Throughput Impact:
The 269% throughput improvement demonstrates this optimization's power for I/O-bound workloads. When processing multiple users, the system can now handle nearly 4x more operations per second because it's no longer artificially serializing independent async operations.

Test Case Performance:
The optimization particularly excels in scenarios with larger user lists (like the 100-500 user test cases) where the concurrent execution benefit compounds. Smaller lists still benefit but show less dramatic improvements due to the overhead of task creation being more significant relative to the work performed.
