Suggest Optimizations

Analyze code and profile data to recommend optimization strategies for improving performance and resource usage.

When to Use

  • Performance-critical code paths identified in profiling
  • Reducing execution time for hot functions
  • Lowering memory usage
  • Planning SIMD or vectorization strategies

Quick Reference

bash
# Identify optimization opportunities
# 1. Profile to find bottlenecks
# 2. Analyze algorithmic complexity
# 3. Check for unnecessary operations
# 4. Evaluate data structure choices
# 5. Consider SIMD/vectorization

# Profile Python code
python3 -m cProfile -s cumulative script.py | head -20

Workflow

  1. Profile critical paths: Identify functions consuming most time/memory
  2. Analyze algorithms: Check time/space complexity, look for inefficiencies
  3. Examine data structures: Verify optimal data structure choices
  4. Consider caching: Identify repeated computations
  5. Propose optimizations: List specific changes with expected impact

Output Format

Optimization recommendation:

  • Bottleneck identified (function, line number)
  • Current performance (time/memory)
  • Root cause analysis
  • Recommended optimization technique
  • Expected improvement (percentage or time estimate)
  • Implementation difficulty (low/medium/high)
