There is no faster than O(n) here.

a = {'a' : {'b' :{'/' :[1,2,3,4], 'ba' :{'/' :[41,42,44]} ,'bc'
:{'/':[51,52,54], 'bcd' :{'/':[68,69,66]}}},'c' :{'/' :[5,6,7,8]}}, 'ab' : {'/'
:[12,13,14,15]}, 'ac' :{'/' :[21,22,23]}}
def f(d):
if "/" in d:
for v in d["/"]:
yield v
for value in d.values():
if isinstance(value, dict):
for v in f(value):
yield v
print list(f(a))
But that gives me a different result:
[5, 6, 7, 8, 1, 2, 3, 4, 41, 42, 44, 51, 52, 54, 68, 69, 66, 21, 22,
23, 12, 13, 14, 15]
Why don't you expect e.g. 23 in your output?
