From c31db1d58b737f81008d97e07ebf978abca605f1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dixing Xu Date: Sat, 7 Nov 2026 14:48:32 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] perf(is_awaitable): skip coroutine type test -- 5.8% faster async list Every coroutine object has an __await__ attribute, so the separate CoroutineType test never changes the result. Check the exact generator type first (for generator-based coroutines), then check for __await__. Plain values such as ints and strs now run two cheap checks instead of three. The async iterable list-field benchmark median goes from 1.183 ms to 1.115 ms (5.8% less time).
