📄 155% (1.55x) speedup for
fibonacciincode_to_optimize_ts/fibonacci.ts⏱️ Runtime :
4.04 microseconds→1.58 microsecondss(best of250runs)📝 Explanation and details
The optimized code achieves a 155% speedup by replacing the exponential-time recursive algorithm with a linear-time iterative approach.
Key optimization:
fibonacci(5)recalculatesfibonacci(3)multiple times.Why this is faster:
Impact:
The speedup grows dramatically with larger inputs. For small values of n (like n≤10), the 155% improvement is already significant. For larger values (n=20-40), the difference would be orders of magnitude larger - potentially reducing runtime from seconds to microseconds.
This optimization is particularly valuable if the function is called frequently or with moderately large values of n in production workloads.
