Ok. Performance improvement comes from:

a. Presizing
b. Bypassing some checks in PyDict_SetItem
c. Avoiding duplication check.

(b) is relatively small so I tried to focus on (a) and (b). See GH-22909.

In case of simple keyword arguments, it is 10% faster than GH-22346:

```
$ ./python -m pyperf timeit --compare-to ./python-speedup_kw "dict(ihinvdono='doononon', gowwondwon='nwog', bdjbodbob='nidnnpn', nwonwno='vndononon', dooodbob='iohiwipwgpw', doidonooq='ndwnnpnpnp', fndionqinqn='ndjboqoqjb', nonoeoqgoqb='bdboboqbgoqeb', jdnvonvoddo='nvdjnvndvonoq', njnvodnoo='hiehgieba', nvdnvwnnp='wghgihpa', nvfnwnnq='nvdknnnqkm', ndonvnipnq='fndjnaobobvob', fjafosboab='ndjnodvobvojb', nownwnojwjw='nvknnndnow', niownviwnwnwi='nownvwinvwnwnwj')"
python-speedup_kw: ..................... 357 ns +- 10 ns
python: ..................... 323 ns +- 4 ns

Mean +- std dev: [python-speedup_kw] 357 ns +- 10 ns -> [python] 323 ns +- 4 ns: 1.11x faster (-10%)
```

In case of `dict(d, key=val)` case, it is 8% slower than GH-22346, but still 8% faster than master.

```
$ ./python -m pyperf timeit --compare-to ./python-speedup_kw -s 'd={"foo":"bar"}' "dict(d, ihinvdono='doononon', gowwondwon='nwog', bdjbodbob='nidnnpn', nwonwno='vndononon', dooodbob='iohiwipwgpw', doidonooq='ndwnnpnpnp', fndionqinqn='ndjboqoqjb', nonoeoqgoqb='bdboboqbgoqeb', jdnvonvoddo='nvdjnvndvonoq', njnvodnoo='hiehgieba', nvdnvwnnp='wghgihpa', nvfnwnnq='nvdknnnqkm', ndonvnipnq='fndjnaobobvob', fjafosboab='ndjnodvobvojb', nownwnojwjw='nvknnndnow', niownviwnwnwi='nownvwinvwnwnwj')"
python-speedup_kw: ..................... 505 ns +- 15 ns
python: ..................... 546 ns +- 17 ns

Mean +- std dev: [python-speedup_kw] 505 ns +- 15 ns -> [python] 546 ns +- 17 ns: 1.08x slower (+8%)

$ ./python -m pyperf timeit --compare-to ./python-master -s 'd={"foo":"bar"}' "dict(d, ihinvdono='doononon', gowwondwon='nwog', bdjbodbob='nidnnpn', nwonwno='vndononon', dooodbob='iohiwipwgpw', doidonooq='ndwnnpnpnp', fndionqinqn='ndjboqoqjb', nonoeoqgoqb='bdboboqbgoqeb', jdnvonvoddo='nvdjnvndvonoq', njnvodnoo='hiehgieba', nvdnvwnnp='wghgihpa', nvfnwnnq='nvdknnnqkm', ndonvnipnq='fndjnaobobvob', fjafosboab='ndjnodvobvojb', nownwnojwjw='nvknnndnow', niownviwnwnwi='nownvwinvwnwnwj')"
python-master: ..................... 598 ns +- 10 ns
python: ..................... 549 ns +- 19 ns

Mean +- std dev: [python-master] 598 ns +- 10 ns -> [python] 549 ns +- 19 ns: 1.09x faster (-8%)
```

Additionally, I expect we can reuse this new code to optimize BUILD_CONST_KEY_MAP.

@methane: well, to be honest, I don't see much difference between the two pulls. The major difference is that you merged insertdict_init in dict_merge_init.

But I kept insertdict_init separate on purpose, because this function can be used in other future dedicated function on creation time only. Furthermore it's more simple to maintain, since it's quite identical to insertdict.

Where do you expect to use it? Would you implement some more optimization based on your PR to demonstrate your idea?

I confirmed that GH-22909 can be used to optimize BUILD_CONST_KEY_MAP (GH-22911). That's why I merged two functions.

> AssertionError: would build wheel with unsupported tag ('cp310', 'cp310', 'linux_x86_64')

Try `pip install pyperformance==1.0.0`.

See https://github.com/methane/cpython/pull/25

But I can not confirm significant performance gain from it too.

I commented out sqlalchemy in the requirements.txt in the pyperformance source code, and it worked. I had also to skip tornado:

pyperformance run -r -b,-sqlalchemy_declarative,-sqlalchemy_imperative,-tornado_http -o ../perf_master.json

This is my result:

It's strange that some benchmarks are slower, since the patch only do two additional checks to dict_vectorcall. Maybe they use many little dicts?

@methane:

I already done them, I'll do a PR.

Well, following your example, since split dicts seems to be no more supported, I decided to be more drastic. If you see the last push in PR 22346, I do not check anymore but always resize, so the dict is always combined.

Inada Naoki <songofacandy@gmail.com> added the comment:

unpack_sequence is very sensitive benchmark. Speed is dramatically changed by code alignment. PGO+LTO will reduce the noise, but we see noise always.

I believe there is no significant performance change in macro benchmarks when optimizing this part.

Not significant in macro benchmarks doesn't mean we must reject the optimization, because pyperformance doesn't cover whole application in the world.
But it means that we must be conservative about the optimization.

Both changes add significant amount of code (100 and 85 lines correspondingly). Even if they speed up a particular case of dict constructor it is not common use case.

I think that it would be better to reject these changes. They make maintenance harder, the benefit seems insignificant, and there is always a danger that new code can slow down other code. The dict object is performance critical for python, so it is better to not touch its code without need.

You are right, but please wait.

Marco is new contributor and he can write correct C code for now.
So I am searching some parts which can be optimized by his code before rejecting it.

* bpo-42126, GH-22911: I can make dict display (aka. dict literal) 50% faster. But it introduce additional complexity to compiler and ceval. So I will reject it unless I find real world code using dict display in performance critical part.

* _PyStack_AsDict (https://github.com/methane/cpython/pull/25): I thought this is performance critical function. But I could not see significant performance gain in pyperformance.

* _PyEval_EvalCode (https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/master/Python/ceval.c#L4465): I am still not sure we can assume there are no duplicated keyword argument here. If we can assume it, we can optimize calling function receiving **kwds argument.

These three parts are all I found. I will reject this issue after I failed to optimize _PyEval_EvalCode.

Serhiy Storchaka <storchaka+cpython@gmail.com> added the comment:

Do not overestimate the importance of _PyStack_AsDict(). Most of calls (~90-95% or like) are with positional only arguments, and most of functions do not have var-keyword parameter. So efforts in last years were spent on optimizing common cases, in particularly avoiding creation of a dict without need. _PyStack_AsDict() can affect perhaps 1% of code, or less, and these functions are usually not performance critical.

Well, actually Serhiy is right, it does not seem that the macro benchs did show something significant. Maybe the code can be used in other parts of CPython, for example in _pickle, where dicts are loaded. But it needs also to expose, maybe internally only, dictresize() and DICT_NEXT_VERSION(). Not sure it's something desirable.

There's something that I do not understand: the speedup to unpack_sequence. I checked the pyperformance code, and it's a microbench for:

a, b = some_sequence

It should *not* be affected by the change. Anyway, I run the bench other 10 times, and the lowest value with the CPython code without the PR is not lower than 67.7 ns. With the PR, it reaches 53.5 ns. And I do not understand why. Maybe it affects the creation of the dicts with the local and global vars?

The benchmark is very affected by code placement.
Even adding dead function affects speeds. Read vstinner's blog and presentation:

* https://vstinner.github.io/journey-to-stable-benchmark-deadcode.html
* https://speakerdeck.com/haypo/how-to-run-a-stable-benchmark?slide=9

That's why we recommend PGO+LTO build for benchmarking.

I'm sorry about that. PGO+LTO *reduce* noises, but there are still noises. And unpack_sequence is very fragile.
I tried your branch again, and unpack_sequence is 10% *slower* than master branch.

I am running pyperformance with PR-23106, which simplifies your function and use it from _PyStack_AsDict() and _PyEval_EvalCode().

And bench_kwcall.py is a microbenchmark for _PyEval_EvalCode.

$ cpython/release/python -m pyperf compare_to master.json kwcall-nodup.json

kwcall-3: Mean +- std dev: [master] 192 us +- 2 us -> [kwcall-nodup] 175 us +- 1 us: 1.09x faster (-9%)
kwcall-6: Mean +- std dev: [master] 327 us +- 6 us -> [kwcall-nodup] 291 us +- 4 us: 1.12x faster (-11%)
kwcall-9: Mean +- std dev: [master] 436 us +- 10 us -> [kwcall-nodup] 373 us +- 5 us: 1.17x faster (-14%)

Geometric mean: 0.89 (faster)

While this is an interesting optimization, the gain is not enough.
I close this issue for now.

@Marco Sulla
Optimizing dict is a bit hard job. If you want to continue, I have an idea:
`dict(zip(keys, row))` is common use case. It is used by asdict() in datacalss, _asdict() in namedtuple, and csv DictReader.
Sniffing zip object and presizing dict may be interesting optimization.

But note that this idea has low chance of accepted too. We tries many ideas like this and reject them by ourselves even without creating a pull request.
