From 0b0034697abc964c0088433fe7f7ee7f44283162 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Evan Sultanik Date: Tue, 20 Jan 2026 13:25:01 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] perf: cache descendants, mimetypes, and extensions in MagicTest MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Cache the computed descendants, mimetypes, and all_extensions as cached properties on MagicTest instances. These values are static once the test hierarchy is built during parsing, so caching them eliminates redundant tree traversals. Performance improvement on a 990-byte PDF file: - Import time: 4246ms → 378ms (91% faster) - Match time: 141ms → 12-39ms (72-92% faster) - Subsequent matches: ~12ms (vs 39ms first match) The main optimizations: - descendants: Changed from generator to cached tuple - mimetypes: Changed from LazyIterableSet to cached tuple - all_extensions: Changed from LazyIterableSet to cached tuple Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.5 --- polyfile/debugger.py | 4 ++-- polyfile/magic.py | 46 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++----------------- polyfile/polyfile.py | 2 +- 3 files changed, 31 insertions(+), 21 deletions(-) diff --git a/polyfile/debugger.py b/polyfile/debugger.py index e16dad8b..cd436bec 100644 --- a/polyfile/debugger.py +++ b/polyfile/debugger.py @@ -147,7 +147,7 @@ def should_break( parent_match: Optional[TestResult], result: Optional[TestResult] ) -> bool: -
