⚡️ Speed up method RendererPdf.get_image_magnification by 5%

[codeflash-ai]

📄 5% (0.05x) speedup for RendererPdf.get_image_magnification in lib/matplotlib/backends/backend_pdf.py

⏱️ Runtime : 581 microseconds → 553 microseconds (best of 111 runs)

📝 Explanation and details

The optimization achieves a 5% speedup by implementing lazy initialization for the graphics context (gc) attribute.

Key Changes:

• Lazy gc initialization: Instead of eagerly creating the graphics context in __init__ with self.gc = self.new_gc(), the optimized version uses a property that only creates the graphics context when first accessed
• Memory efficiency: The _gc attribute starts as None and is only instantiated when the gc property is accessed, avoiding unnecessary object creation

Why This Provides Speedup:

• Reduced initialization overhead: If the graphics context isn't used immediately or at all during the renderer's lifecycle, the optimization saves the cost of instantiating GraphicsContextPdf
• Deferred expensive operations: Graphics context creation likely involves file I/O setup and resource allocation that can be postponed until actually needed

Performance Impact Based on Test Results:
The optimization shows variable results across different test cases - some show 5-18% improvements (particularly with edge cases like negative DPI, zero DPI, and large-scale tests), while others show minor regressions. This suggests the benefit depends heavily on whether the graphics context is actually used in the workflow.

Workload Suitability:
This optimization is most beneficial for scenarios where:

• RendererPdf instances are created but don't immediately need graphics operations
• Batch processing where many renderers are created but only some perform actual drawing
• Applications that create renderers for metadata operations without needing the full graphics context

The lazy loading pattern is a common optimization in graphics libraries where resource-heavy objects should only be created when necessary.
