⚡️ Speed up function _io_hash by 6%

[codeflash-ai]

📄 6% (0.06x) speedup for _io_hash in panel/io/cache.py

⏱️ Runtime : 1.11 milliseconds → 1.05 milliseconds (best of 43 runs)

📝 Explanation and details

The optimized code achieves a 5% speedup through two key optimizations:

1. Direct MD5 instantiation: Changed hashlib.new("md5") to hashlib.md5(), which eliminates the string lookup overhead and directly creates the MD5 hasher object.

2. Method call caching: Pre-computed obj.tell() and obj.getvalue() into local variables (tell_value and getvalue_value) before passing them to _generate_hash(). This avoids calling these IO methods twice - once during the hash generation and potentially again during internal processing.

The test results show consistent improvements across most test cases, with gains ranging from 2-17% for individual operations. The optimization is particularly effective for:

• Large data scenarios: 7-10% speedup for large BytesIO/StringIO objects (999+ characters/bytes)
• Unicode content: 6-15% improvement when processing non-ASCII strings and UTF-8 encoded bytes
• Repeated operations: Better performance on subsequent hash calls due to reduced method call overhead

These micro-optimizations compound effectively because _io_hash is likely called frequently in caching scenarios, where even small per-call improvements result in meaningful aggregate performance gains.
