From ecee303fcc9943a897f73bd1b414260dd6667ea9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dixing Xu Date: Sat, 7 Nov 2026 22:21:43 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] perf(block_string): 8.6x faster is_printable_as_block_string check Replace the per-character Python loop in is_printable_as_block_string() with str methods: an isprintable() pre-check plus one regex search for control characters, then split("\n") for the leading line, trailing line and common indent checks. The rules and results stay the same. print_schema() of the GitHub schema fixture takes 16.3 ms instead of 25.5 ms on CPython 3.12.
