> Beam Python 3 conversion [exposed|https://github.com/apache/beam/pull/5729]
> non-trivial performance-sensitive logic in element-batching transform. Let's
> take a look at
> [util.py#L271|https://github.com/apache/beam/blob/e98ff7c96afa2f72b3a98426dc1e9a47224da5c8/sdks/python/apache_beam/transforms/util.py#L271].

> Due to Python 2 language semantics, the result of {{x2 / x1}} will depend on
> the type of the keys - whether they are integers or floats.
> The keys of key-value pairs contained in {{self._data}} are added as integers
> [here|https://github.com/apache/beam/blob/d2ac08da2dccce8930432fae1ec7c30953880b69/sdks/python/apache_beam/transforms/util.py#L260],
> however, when we 'thin' the collected entries

> the keys will become floats. Surprisingly, using either integer or float
> division consistently [in the
> comparator|https://github.com/apache/beam/blob/e98ff7c96afa2f72b3a98426dc1e9a47224da5c8/sdks/python/apache_beam/transforms/util.py#L271]
> negatively affects the performance of a custom pipeline I was using to
> benchmark these changes. The performance impact likely comes from changes in
> the logic that depends on how division is evaluated, not from the
> performance of division operation itself.
> In terms of Python 3 conversion the best course of action that avoids
> regression seems to be to preserve the existing Python 2 behavior using
> {{old_div}} from {{past.utils.division}}, in the medium term we should clean
> up the logic. We may want to add a targeted microbenchmark to evaluate
> performance of this code, and maybe cythonize the code, since it seems to be
> performance-sensitive.
