📄 140% (1.40x) speedup for
filterEntityGroupsBySearchTerminapp/client/src/IDE/utils/filterEntityGroupsBySearchTerm.ts⏱️ Runtime :
3.01 milliseconds→1.25 milliseconds(best of40runs)📝 Explanation and details
The optimized code achieves a 140% speedup (from 3.01ms to 1.25ms) by eliminating redundant Fuse instance construction through intelligent caching.
Key Optimization:
The original code created a new Fuse instance for every group on every call (line 35 in profile: 45.9% of runtime). The optimized version introduces a WeakMap-based cache that stores Fuse instances keyed by the items array reference. When the same items array is encountered again (either across multiple calls or within the same call if groups share items), the cached Fuse instance is reused instead of being reconstructed.
Why This Works:
Fuse construction is expensive: Building the search index dominates the original runtime at 6.1ms across 137 hits. By caching instances, this cost is paid once per unique items array rather than once per group per call.
WeakMap ensures memory safety: Using items arrays as keys means cache entries are automatically garbage collected when the arrays are no longer referenced elsewhere, preventing memory leaks.
Function-level cache persistence: Storing the cache on the function object itself (
__fuseCache) ensures it persists across invocations, maximizing reuse opportunities.Secondary Improvements:
reducewith a standard for-loop, eliminating per-iteration callback overheadObject.assigninstead of spread operators ({...rest, items}) for slightly more efficient object constructionTest Results Confirm the Win:
The performance tests show dramatic improvements in scenarios with repeated items arrays:
Impact:
This optimization is particularly effective when:
The caching strategy transforms O(n) Fuse construction cost per call into O(unique items arrays) amortized cost, delivering substantial runtime improvements without changing the function's behavior or API.
