Attempts to improve tidy3d import times by lazy-loading all modules in the tidy3d namespace, so
import tidy3d as td
becomes almost instant. Running into some issues with the tests though, so draft for now.In principle
_build_lazy_map()
doesn't need to be called on import but we could just statically generate this to some file and then read it. The only problem is that this would mean building this map would need to be triggered whenever something in the import structure changes.
