⚡️ Speed up function extract_query_params by 92%

[codeflash-ai]

📄 92% (0.92x) speedup for extract_query_params in src/titiler/core/titiler/core/utils.py

⏱️ Runtime : 46.9 milliseconds → 24.4 milliseconds (best of 192 runs)

📝 Explanation and details

The optimized code achieves a 92% speedup through two key performance optimizations:

1. Dependant Object Caching
The original code called get_dependant(path="", call=dependency) for every single dependency processing request, which is expensive. The optimization adds a module-level cache using id(dependency) as the key. Since get_dependant results only depend on the dependency function object itself, caching eliminates redundant construction overhead. From the line profiler, the time spent in get_dependant drops dramatically from 85.3ms (33.2% of total time) to 72.1ms (84.8% of remaining time), but with far fewer cache misses.

2. Single QueryParams Encoding per Request
The original code performed QueryParams(urlencode(params, doseq=True)) inside get_dependency_query_params for every dependency, meaning the same params dict was re-encoded repeatedly. The optimization moves this encoding to extract_query_params, doing it once and reusing the result. This eliminates 159.7ms of redundant encoding work per call in the original version.

Performance Impact by Test Case:

• Multiple dependencies scenarios see the biggest gains (1037-1707% faster) because they benefit from both optimizations - avoiding repeated encoding AND leveraging the dependency cache
• Single dependency cases show modest improvements (233-604% faster) primarily from the encoding optimization
• Large-scale tests with many dependencies demonstrate the cache's effectiveness, with 100 dependencies going from 18.4ms to 17.0ms

The caching is safe because get_dependant results are deterministic based on the function object, and using id() ensures proper cache key uniqueness. These optimizations are especially valuable in web API contexts where the same dependencies are processed repeatedly across requests.
