According to the profiler, some_function was being called 52,000 times
Is some_function recursive, by any chance?

The length of the list produced by the comprehension also give you good
information.

The function IMHO must be returning a generator. I would look for a problem

It is impossible to diagnose without seeing more context. Specifically,
you'll need to share the code around this line. The whole function,

I was profiling a slow function in an application last week, and came
across something that I still can’t explain. Inside a loop that was being
called 4 times, inside a for loop that ran for a few dozen times there was
a list compression of the form:
[x.id for x in some_function()]
According to t
