Do you pick random item repeatedly from same dictionary? If so, you can create a list once in Python. Or do you pick random item from various dictionaries? If so, you application must create many dictionaries, not only picking random item. Unless randam picking part is the bottleneck, micro optimization for this part is not important. That's why the higher level use case is needed to design useful benchmark.
