Descripción

When running a large update on a plot, sometimes the time is dominated by the lookup for missing names, even when this lookup serves no purpose, such as in plotly.subplots.make_subplots where new axes are being added by the plotly library itself, and finding "nearby" names is not helpful when all that is needed is a check if the name already exists.

In plotly.basedatatypes.BaseDatatype._perform_update, for each key to be updated it calls _check_path_in_prop_tree, but then ignores the error that is generated if the plotly_obj is a BaseLayoutType and the key matches one of the _subplot_re_match keywords, and just adds the key to the plotly_obj instead.

This call to _check_path_in_prop_tree is expensive when

  • there are a large number of defined keys in the layout (such as when there are a large number of subplots being initialized) and
  • the path is not yet in the prop tree

When those conditions are met, the prop lookup check_path_in_prop_tree calls BasePlotlyType.__getitem__, which then calls BasePlotlyType._raise_on_invalid_property_error, which then calls _plotly_utils.utils.find_closest_string for each new property being added. find_closest_string uses a levenshtein lookup and this takes geometrically more time the more keys there are to compare, which is the root of the problem.

If the lookup could be disabled in _raise_on_invalid_property_error, that would help, but there is a problem in that _check_path_in_prop_tree is using an implicit __getitem__ on the plotly_obj, here

The issue can be resolved by disabling the lookup completely, as shown in the second example notebook below, where _plotly_utils.utils is monkey-patched so that find_closest_string always raises an error, but this doesn't seem like the best way to handle it.

Example one: without disabling lookup

import plotly.subplots
import cProfile
import pstats
from pstats import SortKey

cProfile.run('fig = plotly.subplots.make_subplots(rows=20, cols=20)', 'restats')
p = pstats.Stats('restats')
p.sort_stats(SortKey.CUMULATIVE).print_stats(20)

Línea de trabajo

Empieza en packages/python/plotly/plotly/basedatatypes.py, en BaseDatatype._perform_update, _check_path_in_prop_tree y _raise_on_invalid_property_error. Reproduce el problema con plotly.subplots.make_subplots(rows=20, cols=20) y compara el profiling con y sin el lookup. La solución final debe proporcionar una forma compatible de omitir los similarity lookups innecesarios de nombres ausentes, preservando la validación normal de properties.
