Syntax highlighting and analysis concerningly slow with multiple tuple returning function calls
Environment data
- Language Server version: 2022.6.10
- OS and version: Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS (Kernel: 5.13.0-44-generic)
- Python version: Python 3.8.10
Code Snippet
def foo (yy, zz):
yy = zz['cc']
return (yy, dict(zz=zz['cc']))
def bar(aa, bb):
count = 0
while count < 10:
count += 1
aa, bb = foo(aa,dict(cc=bb))
aa, bb = foo(aa,dict(cc=bb))
aa, bb = foo(aa,dict(cc=bb))
aa, bb = foo(aa,dict(cc=bb))
if aa:
aa, bb = foo(aa,dict(cc=bb))
aa, bb = foo(aa,dict(cc=bb))
aa, bb = foo(aa,dict(cc=bb))
aa, bb = foo(aa,dict(cc=bb))
aa, bb = foo(aa,dict(cc=bb))
aa, bb = foo(aa,dict(cc=bb))
def main():
bar(1, 2)
main()
Repro Steps
- Open the file in VS Code with Python and Pylance extensions installed.
Expected behavior
Syntax highlighting in few seconds with little performance hit.
Actual behavior
Syntax highlighting and analysis takes minutes (sometimes it never finishes). Shows 100% CPU usage on one of the logical cores in system monitor.

Misc.
It's my first time noticing this. I see no issues when I don't use multiple tuple returning function calls in this fashion and I tested it in some of my other projects which leads me to believe it's the primary cause of it.
Thanks in advance!
Thanks for reporting this. Yes, you're hitting a case that is difficult for the type analyzer to handle. I'll take a look at ways to mitigate the performance issue.
Since this is pyright, the type checker upon which pylance is built, I've created a tracking bug in the pyright project.
I've done a series of performance improvements, and I've dropped the analysis time from 10's of seconds to about 2 seconds on my machine. This is definitely a challenging code sample for a static type evaluator to handle, and I'm reaching diminishing returns with optimizations.
I'll note that if I add type annotations to the two input parameters aa
and bb
in the bar
function, the analysis time drops to tens of milliseconds. Without these type annotations, the type analyzer needs to do a lot of work to infer the types of these symbols.
I'm going to mark this as resolved at this point because I don't think there's much more I can do to improve the perf.
I've marked it as "fixed in next version", but the optimizations are already in place, so I think it's fine to close this issue.
Thanks for your efforts! I understand it is a very hard case for the type analyzer as it tries to resolve the dynamic return type of foo which is difficult to know ahead of time. Nevertheless, really appreciate you bringing down the time to 2 seconds; I tested it and it is a big improvement. Type annotations seem to improve it even further but then the type of the variable doesn't update, which I guess is fair and meant to be. I shall close this issue now.
