perf: cache parsed permissions per request#1167

Conversation
permits() ran permissions_as_dict() on every call, re-splitting each permission string and json.loads-ing every filter value. Since permits() is invoked O(records * fields) times per list request, this parsing was repeated for every record/field even though the underlying permissions are identical for the whole request. Cache the parsed dict (not the raw collection) under the existing aiohttpadmin_permissions request key so the strings are parsed once. Update the list-filter path in abc.py to read the cached dict directly.

What
Parse each request's permission strings once instead of on every permission check.
Why
AdminAuthorizationPolicy.permits()calledpermissions_as_dict()on everyinvocation. That helper splits each permission string on
|/=and runsjson.loadson every filter value. Becausepermits()runs roughlyO(records * fields)times per list request (once per record, and again perfield for field-level checks), the same permission set was re-parsed dozens of
times for a single response — even though it is identical for the whole request.
The request already cached the raw collection under
aiohttpadmin_permissions, and a comment inabc.pyclaimed the parsed formwas cached — but it wasn't; every reader re-parsed it.
How
Cache the parsed dict (not the raw collection) under the existing
aiohttpadmin_permissionsrequest key, so parsing happens exactly once perrequest. The advanced-permission filter path in
backends/abc.pynow reads thecached dict directly instead of re-parsing. No behavioral change — the cached
key is internal (no docs/tests reference the raw form).
Testing
pytest tests/— 97 passed, 1 xfailed. The one unrelated pre-existing failure(
test_views.py::test_admin_view, tracked in #934) fails identically on thebase branch. The permission-filter and field-level permission tests exercise
both the
permits()path and theabc.pyfilter path end-to-end.Quality Report
