Doesn't seem so to me. You're going over the lines of the file once without and two times within for each of those iterations. You should use a set or a dictionary rather than lists if you want to do membership tests. Also, this all_lines_in_file[line].split('->')[1].split(')')[0].split("'")[1].strip() is liable to bite you later. I'd suggest you try to simplify it or atleast wrap it up in a function with a nice name.
