(best of

reset_state_progress_markers

to original: This function is now rarely called (only 4 times vs 1241), so optimizing it provides negligible benefit. Reverting maintains simplicity and consistency with the original code. 2. Removed unnecessary comments: Deleted the comment about "avoiding extra lookups / function call overhead" and "inlining reset logic" as they don't add value for maintainers. The code is self-explanatory. 3. Fixed duplicate comment: Removed the duplicate "Remove auto-generated human-readable note:" comment. 4. Preserved the key optimization: Kept the core performance improvement in `finalize_state_progress_markers`: • Direct

stream_or_partition_state.get(PROGRESS_MARKERS)

instead of calling

is_state_non_resumable()

• Inlined the reset logic at the end to avoid the function call overhead 5. Maintained original variable naming: Used

progress_markers

at the end for consistency with the original code and the

reset_state_progress_markers

function. The refined code achieves the same 67% speedup in

finalize_state_progress_markers

with a minimal, clean diff that's easier to review and maintain. ✅ Correctness verification report: | Test | Status | | ----------------------------- | --------------- | | ⚙️ Existing Unit Tests | ✅ 5 Passed | | 🌀 Generated Regression Tests | ✅ 1234 Passed | | ⏪ Replay Tests | 🔘 None Found | | 🔎 Concolic Coverage Tests | 🔘 None Found | | 📊 Tests Coverage | 100.0% | ⚙️ Click to see Existing Unit Tests | Test File::Test Function | Original ⏱️ | Optimized ⏱️ | Speedup | | ------------------------------------------------ | ----------- | ------------ | ------- | | core/test_state_handling.py::test_state_finalize | 1.67μs | 1.42μs | 17.7%✅ | 🌀 Click to see Generated Regression Tests from future import annotations import pytest # used for our unit tests from singer_sdk.helpers._state import ( PROGRESS_MARKER_NOTE, PROGRESS_MARKERS, SIGNPOST_MARKER, STARTING_MARKER, finalize_state_progress_markers, ) def test_promotes_replication_key_and_clears_progress_markers(): # Prepare a state that contains progress_markers with replication key info state = { PROGRESS_MARKERS: { "replication_key": "id", # should be promoted to top-level "replication_key_value": 5, # should be promoted to top-level PROGRESS_MARKER_NOTE: "auto-note", # should be removed by reset }, STARTING_MARKER: "start-value", # should be removed unconditionally "some_other": "value", # unrelated keys should remain } # Call the function under test codeflash_output = finalize_state_progress_markers(state) returned = codeflash_output # 833ns -> 667ns (24.9% faster) def test_returns_remaining_markers_when_no_replication_key_present(): # Prepare a state where progress_markers exist but lack 'replication_key' state = { PROGRESS_MARKERS: { "some_bookmark": 123, PROGRESS_MARKER_NOTE: "a note to remove", }, "foo": "bar", } # Call the function under test codeflash_output = finalize_state_progress_markers(state) returned = codeflash_output # 541ns -> 417ns (29.7% faster) def test_signpost_clamps_replication_key_value_when_new_is_greater(): # If the progress marker's replication_key_value is greater than signpost, # the code will set the final replication_key_value to the signpost value. state = { SIGNPOST_MARKER: 100, # signpost PROGRESS_MARKERS: { "replication_key": "rk", "replication_key_value": 150, # greater than signpost -> will be clamped PROGRESS_MARKER_NOTE: "note", }, } codeflash_output = finalize_state_progress_markers(state) returned = codeflash_output # 916ns -> 791ns (15.8% faster) def test_signpost_falsy_zero_does_not_trigger_comparison(): # signpost set to 0 is falsy in Python;
