2021-10-11perf: disable automatic housekeepingLibravatar René Scharfe2-0/+6
Turn off automatic background maintenance for perf tests by default to avoid interference with performance measurements. Do that by using the new file t/perf/config and using it as the system config file for perf tests. Future tests intended to measure gc performance can override the setting locally or call "git gc" explicitly. This fixes a breakage in p2000 caused by gc automatically emptying the reflog due its fake dates from 2005 being older than 90 days.

2021-10-04t/perf/perf-lib.sh: remove test_times.* at the end test_perf_()Libravatar Jeff Hostetler1-0/+1
Teach test_perf_() to remove the temporary test_times.* files at the end of each test. test_perf_() runs a particular GIT_PERF_REPEAT_COUNT times and creates ./test_times.[123...]. It then uses a perl script to find the minimum over "./test_times.*" (note the wildcard) and writes that time to "test-results/<testname>.<testnumber>.result". If the repeat count is changed during the pXXXX test script, stale test_times.* files (from previous steps) may be included in the min() computation. For example: ... GIT_PERF_REPEAT_COUNT=3 \ test_perf "status" " git status " GIT_PERF_REPEAT_COUNT=1 \ test_perf "checkout other" " git checkout other " ... The time reported in the summary for "XXXX.2 checkout other" would be "min( checkout[1], status[2], status[3] )". We prevent that error by removing the test_times.* files at the end of each test.

2021-10-04t/perf/aggregate.perl: tolerate leading spacesLibravatar Taylor Blau1-2/+2
When using `test_size` with `wc -c`, users on certain platforms can run into issues when `wc` emits leading space characters in its output, which confuses get_times. Callers could switch to use test_file_size instead of `wc -c` (the former never prints leading space characters, so will always work with test_size regardless of platform), but this is an easy enough spot to miss that we should teach get_times to be more tolerant of the input it accepts. Teach get_times to do just that by stripping any leading space characters. Signed-off-by: Taylor Blau <me@ttaylorr.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2021-09-22t/perf/run: fix bin-wrappers computationLibravatar Derrick Stolee1-1/+1
The GIT_TEST_INSTALLED was moved from perf-lib.sh to run in df0f5021 (perf-lib.sh: remove GIT_TEST_INSTALLED from perf-lib.sh, 2019-05-07) and that included a change to how it inspected the existence of a bin-wrappers directory. However, that included a typo that made the match of bin-wrappers never work. Specifically, the assignment was mydir_abs_wrappers="$mydir_abs_wrappers/bin-wrappers" which uses the same variable before it is initialized. By changing it to mydir_abs_wrappers="$mydir_abs/bin-wrappers" We can correctly use the bin-wrappers directory. This is critical to successfully computing performance of commands that execute subcommands. The bin-wrappers ensure that the --exec-path is set correctly.

2021-09-17p5326: generate pack bitmaps before writing the MIDX bitmapLibravatar Taylor Blau1-1/+8
To help test the performance of permuting the contents of the hash-cache when generating a MIDX bitmap, we need a bitmap which has its hash-cache populated. And since multi-pack bitmaps don't add *new* values to the hash-cache, we have to rely on a single-pack bitmap to generate those values for us. Therefore, generate a pack bitmap before the MIDX one in order to ensure that the MIDX bitmap has entries in its hash-cache. Since we don't want to time generating the pack bitmap, move that to a non-perf test run before we try to generate the MIDX bitmap. Likewise, get rid of the pack bitmap afterwords, to make certain that we are not accidentally using it in the performance tests run later on.

2021-09-01p5326: perf tests for MIDX bitmapsLibravatar Taylor Blau1-0/+43
These new performance tests demonstrate effectively the same behavior as p5310, but use a multi-pack bitmap instead of a single-pack one. Notably, p5326 does not create a MIDX bitmap with multiple packs. This is so we can measure a direct comparison between it and p5310. Any difference between the two is measuring just the overhead of using MIDX bitmaps. Here are the results of p5310 and p5326 together, measured at the same time and on the same machine (using a Xenon W-2255 CPU): Test HEAD ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 5310.2: repack to disk 96.78(93.39+11.33) 5310.3: simulated clone 9.98(9.79+0.19) 5310.4: simulated fetch 1.75(4.26+0.19) 5310.5: pack to file (bitmap) 28.20(27.87+8.70) 5310.6: rev-list (commits) 0.41(0.36+0.05) 5310.7: rev-list (objects) 1.61(1.54+0.07) 5310.8: rev-list count with blob:none 0.25(0.21+0.04) 5310.9: rev-list count with blob:limit=1k 2.65(2.54+0.10) 5310.10: rev-list count with tree:0 0.23(0.19+0.04) 5310.11: simulated partial clone 4.34(4.21+0.12) 5310.13: clone (partial bitmap) 11.05(12.21+0.48) 5310.14: pack to file (partial bitmap) 31.25(34.22+3.70) 5310.15: rev-list with tree filter (partial bitmap) 0.26(0.22+0.04) versus the same tests (this time using a multi-pack index): Test HEAD ------------------------------------------------------------------------ 5326.2: setup multi-pack index 78.99(75.29+11.58) 5326.3: simulated clone 11.78(11.56+0.22) 5326.4: simulated fetch 1.70(4.49+0.13) 5326.5: pack to file (bitmap) 28.02(27.72+8.76) 5326.6: rev-list (commits) 0.42(0.36+0.06) 5326.7: rev-list (objects) 1.65(1.58+0.06) 5326.8: rev-list count with blob:none 0.26(0.21+0.05) 5326.9: rev-list count with blob:limit=1k 2.97(2.86+0.10) 5326.10: rev-list count with tree:0 0.25(0.20+0.04) 5326.11: simulated partial clone 5.65(5.49+0.16) 5326.13: clone (partial bitmap) 12.22(13.43+0.38) 5326.14: pack to file (partial bitmap) 30.05(31.57+7.25) 5326.15: rev-list with tree filter (partial bitmap) 0.24(0.20+0.04) There is slight overhead in "simulated clone", "simulated partial clone", and "clone (partial bitmap)". Unsurprisingly, that overhead is due to using the MIDX's reverse index to map between bit positions and MIDX positions. This can be reproduced by running "git repack -adb" along with "git multi-pack-index write --bitmap" in a large-ish repository. Then run: $ perf record -o pack.perf git -c core.multiPackIndex=false \ pack-objects --all --stdout >/dev/null </dev/null $ perf record -o midx.perf git -c core.multiPackIndex=true \ pack-objects --all --stdout >/dev/null </dev/null and compare the two with "perf diff -c delta -o 1 pack.perf midx.perf".

2021-07-02perf: fix when running with TEST_OUTPUT_DIRECTORYLibravatar Patrick Steinhardt3-13/+24
When the TEST_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY is defined, then all test data will be written in that directory instead of the default directory located in "t/". While this works as expected for our normal tests, performance tests fail to locate and aggregate performance data because they don't know to handle TEST_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY correctly and always look at the default location. Fix the issue by adding a `--results-dir` parameter to "aggregate.perl" which identifies the directory where results are and by making the "run" script awake of the TEST_OUTPUT_DIRECTORY variable.

2021-04-28repack: avoid loosening promisor objects in partial clonesLibravatar Rafael Silva1-0/+4
When `git repack -A -d` is run in a partial clone, `pack-objects` is invoked twice: once to repack all promisor objects, and once to repack all non-promisor objects. The latter `pack-objects` invocation is with --exclude-promisor-objects and --unpack-unreachable, which loosens all objects unused during this invocation. Unfortunately, this includes promisor objects. Because the -d argument to `git repack` subsequently deletes all loose objects also in packs, these just-loosened promisor objects will be immediately deleted. However, this extra disk churn is unnecessary in the first place. For example, in a newly-cloned partial repo that filters all blob objects (e.g. `--filter=blob:none`), `repack` ends up unpacking all trees and commits into the filesystem because every object, in this particular case, is a promisor object. Depending on the repo size, this increases the disk usage considerably: In my copy of the linux.git, the object directory peaked 26GB of more disk usage. In order to avoid this extra disk churn, pass the names of the promisor packfiles as --keep-pack arguments to the second invocation of `pack-objects`. This informs `pack-objects` that the promisor objects are already in a safe packfile and, therefore, do not need to be loosened. For testing, we need to validate whether any object was loosened. However, the "evidence" (loosened objects) is deleted during the process which prevents us from inspecting the object directory. Instead, let's teach `pack-objects` to count loosened objects and emit via trace2 thus allowing inspecting the debug events after the process is finished. This new event is used on the added regression test. Lastly, add a new perf test to evaluate the performance impact made by this changes (tested on git.git): Test HEAD^ HEAD ---------------------------------------------------------- 5600.3: gc 134.38(41.93+90.95) 7.80(6.72+1.35) -94.2% For a bigger repository, such as linux.git, the improvement is even bigger: Test HEAD^ HEAD ------------------------------------------------------------------- 5600.3: gc 6833.00(918.07+3162.74) 268.79(227.02+39.18) -96.1% These improvements are particular big because every object in the newly-cloned partial repository is a promisor object.

2021-04-13revision: avoid parsing with --exclude-promisor-objectsLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+8
When --exclude-promisor-objects is given, before traversing any objects we iterate over all of the objects in any promisor packs, marking them as UNINTERESTING and SEEN. We turn the oid we get from iterating the pack into an object with parse_object(), but this has two problems: - it's slow; we are zlib inflating (and reconstructing from deltas) every byte of every object in the packfile - it leaves the tree buffers attached to their structs, which means our heap usage will grow to store every uncompressed tree simultaneously. This can be gigabytes. We can obviously fix the second by freeing the tree buffers after we've parsed them. But we can observe that the function doesn't look at the object contents at all! The only reason we call parse_object() is that we need a "struct object" on which to set the flags. There are two options here: - we can look up just the object type via oid_object_info(), and then call the appropriate lookup_foo() function - we can call lookup_unknown_object(), which gives us an OBJ_NONE struct (which will get auto-converted later by object_as_type() via calls to lookup_commit(), etc). The first one is closer to the current code, but we do pay the price to look up the type for each object. The latter should be more efficient in CPU, though it wastes a little bit of memory (the "unknown" object structs are a union of all object types, so some of the structs are bigger than they need to be). It also runs the risk of triggering a latent bug in code that calls lookup_object() directly but isn't ready to handle OBJ_NONE (such code would already be buggy, but we use lookup_unknown_object() infrequently enough that it might be hiding). I went with the second option here. I don't think the risk is high (and we'd want to find and fix any such bugs anyway), and it should be more efficient overall. The new tests in p5600 show off the improvement (this is on git.git): Test HEAD^ HEAD ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 5600.5: count commits 0.37(0.37+0.00) 0.38(0.38+0.00) +2.7% 5600.6: count non-promisor commits 11.74(11.37+0.37) 0.04(0.03+0.00) -99.7% The improvement is particularly big in this script because _every_ object in the newly-cloned partial repo is a promisor object. So after marking them all, there's nothing left to traverse. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2021-04-13is_promisor_object(): free tree buffer after parsingLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+4
To get the list of all promisor objects, we not only include all objects in promisor packs, but also parse each of those objects to see which objects they reference. After parsing a tree object, the tree->buffer field will remain populated until we explicitly free it. So in a partial clone of blob:none, for example, we are essentially reading every tree in the repository (since they're all in the initial promisor pack), and keeping all of their uncompressed contents in memory at once. This patch frees the tree buffers after we've finished marking all of their reachable objects. We shouldn't need to do this for any other object type. While we are using some extra memory to store the structs, no other object type stores the whole contents in its parsed form (we do sometimes hold on to commit buffers, but less so these days due to commit graphs, plus most commands which care about promisor objects turn off the save_commit_buffer global). Even for a moderate-sized repository like git.git, this patch drops the peak heap (as measured by massif) for git-fsck from ~1.7GB to ~138MB. Fsck is a good candidate for measuring here because it doesn't interact with the promisor code except to call is_promisor_object(), so we can isolate just this problem. The added perf test shows only a tiny improvement on my machine for git.git, since 1.7GB isn't enough to cause any real memory pressure: Test HEAD^ HEAD -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 5600.4: fsck 21.26(20.90+0.35) 20.84(20.79+0.04) -2.0% With linux.git the absolute change is a bit bigger, though still a small percentage: Test HEAD^ HEAD ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 5600.4: fsck 262.26(259.13+3.12) 254.92(254.62+0.29) -2.8% I didn't have the patience to run it under massif with linux.git, but it's probably on the order of about 14GB improvement, since that's the sum of the sizes of all of the uncompressed trees (but still isn't enough to create memory pressure on this particular machine, which has 64GB of RAM). Smaller machines would probably see a bigger effect on runtime (and sadly our perf suite does not measure peak heap).

2021-03-30t/perf: add performance test for sparse operationsLibravatar Derrick Stolee1-0/+84
Create a test script that takes the default performance test (the Git codebase) and multiplies it by 256 using four layers of duplicated trees of width four. This results in nearly one million blob entries in the index. Then, we can clone this repository with sparse-checkout patterns that demonstrate four copies of the initial repository. Each clone will use a different index format or mode so peformance can be tested across the different options. Note that the initial repo is stripped of submodules before doing the copies. This preserves the expected data shape of the sparse index, because directories containing submodules are not collapsed to a sparse directory entry. Run a few Git commands on these clones, especially those that use the index (status, add, commit). Here are the results on my Linux machine: Test -------------------------------------------------------------- 2000.2: git status (full-index-v3) 0.37(0.30+0.09) 2000.3: git status (full-index-v4) 0.39(0.32+0.10) 2000.4: git add -A (full-index-v3) 1.42(1.06+0.20) 2000.5: git add -A (full-index-v4) 1.26(0.98+0.16) 2000.6: git add .

This is because the v3 index uses 108 MiB while the v4 index uses 80 MiB. Since the repeated portions of the directories are very short (f3/f1/f2, for example) this ratio is less pronounced than in similarly-sized real repositories.

2021-03-22pack-bitmap: avoid traversal of objects referenced by uninteresting tagLibravatar Patrick Steinhardt1-0/+14
When preparing the bitmap walk, we first establish the set of of have and want objects by iterating over the set of pending objects: if an object is marked as uninteresting, it's declared as an object we already have, otherwise as an object we want. These two sets are then used to compute which transitively referenced objects we need to obtain. One special case here are tag objects: when a tag is requested, we resolve it to its first not-tag object and add both resolved objects as well as the tag itself into either the have or want set. Given that the uninteresting-property always propagates to referenced objects, it is clear that if the tag is uninteresting, so are its children and vice versa. But we fail to propagate the flag, which effectively means that referenced objects will always be interesting except for the case where they have already been marked as uninteresting explicitly. This mislabeling does not impact correctness: we now have it in our "wants" set, and given that we later do an `AND NOT` of the bitmaps of "wants" and "haves" sets it is clear that the result must be the same. But we now start to needlessly traverse the tag's referenced objects in case it is uninteresting, even though we know that each referenced object will be uninteresting anyway. In the worst case, this can lead to a complete graph walk just to establish that we do not care for any object. Fix the issue by propagating the `UNINTERESTING` flag to pointees of tag objects and add a benchmark with negative revisions to p5310. This shows some nice performance benefits, tested with linux.git: Test HEAD~ HEAD --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 5310.3: repack to disk 193.18(181.46+16.42) 194.61(183.41+15.83) +0.7% 5310.4: simulated clone 25.93(24.88+1.05) 25.81(24.73+1.08) -0.5% 5310.5: simulated fetch 2.64(5.30+0.69) 2.59(5.16+0.65) -1.9% 5310.6: pack to file (bitmap) 58.75(57.56+6.30) 58.29(57.61+5.73) -0.8% 5310.7: rev-list (commits) 1.45(1.18+0.26) 1.46(1.22+0.24) +0.7% 5310.8: rev-list (objects) 15.35(14.22+1.13) 15.30(14.23+1.07) -0.3% 5310.9: rev-list with tag negated via --not --all (objects) 22.49(20.93+1.56) 0.11(0.09+0.01) -99.5% 5310.10: rev-list with negative tag (objects) 0.61(0.44+0.16) 0.51(0.35+0.16) -16.4% 5310.11: rev-list count with blob:none 12.15(11.19+0.96) 12.18(11.19+0.99) +0.2% 5310.12: rev-list count with blob:limit=1k 17.77(15.71+2.06) 17.75(15.63+2.12) -0.1% 5310.13: rev-list count with tree:0 1.69(1.31+0.38) 1.68(1.28+0.39) -0.6% 5310.14: simulated partial clone 20.14(19.15+0.98) 19.98(18.93+1.05) -0.8% 5310.16: clone (partial bitmap) 12.78(13.89+1.07) 12.72(13.99+1.01) -0.5% 5310.17: pack to file (partial bitmap) 42.07(45.44+2.72) 41.44(44.66+2.80) -1.5% 5310.18: rev-list with tree filter (partial bitmap) 0.44(0.29+0.15) 0.46(0.32+0.14) +4.5% While most benchmarks are probably in the range of noise, the newly added 5310.9 and 5310.10 benchmarks consistenly perform better.

2021-02-26t/perf: avoid copying worktree files from test repoLibravatar Jeff King1-1/+1
When running the perf suite, we copy files from an existing $GIT_DIR to a scratch repository to give us a realistic setup on which to operate. Since the perf scripts themselves may modify the scratch repository, we want to make sure we've scrubbed any references back to the original. One existing example is that we avoid copying the file "commondir" at the top-level of the repository. In a worktree git-dir (e.g., .git/worktrees/foo), that file contains the path to the parent repository; copying it could mean ref updates in the scratch repository affect the original. But there are other files we should cover, too: - "gitdir" in a worktree git-dir contains the path to the actual .git file in the working tree. We _shouldn't_ end up looking at it at all, since the lack of a "commondir" file means Git won't consider this to be a worktree git-dir. But it's best to err on the safe side. - in a parent repository that contains worktrees, the "$GIT_DIR/worktrees" directory will contain the git dirs for the individual worktrees. Which will themselves contain commondir and gitdir files that may reference the original repository. We should likewise remove them. Note that this does mean that the perf suite's scratch repositories will never have any worktrees. That's OK; we don't have any perf tests that are influenced by their presence. If we add any, they'd probably want to create the worktrees themselves anyway. This patch adds both paths to the set of omissions in test_perf_copy_repo_contents(). Note that we won't get confused here by matching arbitrary names like refs/heads/commondir. This list is always matching top-level entries in $GIT_DIR (we rely on "cp -R" to do the actual recursion).

2021-02-26t/perf: handle worktrees as test reposLibravatar Jeff King1-9/+22
The perf suite gets confused when test_perf_default_repo is pointed at a worktree (which includes when it is run from within a worktree at all, since the default is to use the current repository). Here's an example: $ git worktree add ~/foo Preparing worktree (new branch 'foo') HEAD is now at 328c109303 The eighth batch $ cd ~/foo $ make [...build output...] $ cd t/perf $ ./p0000-perf-lib-sanity.sh -v -i [...] perf 1 - test_perf_default_repo works: running: foo=$(git rev-parse HEAD) && test_export foo fatal: ambiguous argument 'HEAD': unknown revision or path not in the working tree. Use '--' to separate paths from revisions, like this: 'git <command> [<revision>...] -- [<file>...]' The problem is that we didn't copy all of the necessary files from the source repository (in this case we got HEAD, but we have no refs!). We discover the git-dir with "rev-parse --git-dir", but this points to the worktree's partial repository in .../.git/worktrees/foo. That partial repository has a "commondir" file which points to the main repository, where the actual refs are stored, but we don't copy it. This is the correct thing to do, though! If we did copy it, then our scratch test repo would be pointing back to the original main repo, and any ref updates we made in the tests would impact that original repo. Instead, we need to either: 1. Make a scratch copy of the original main repo (in addition to the worktree repo), and point the scratch worktree repo's commondir at it. This preserves the original relationship, but it's doubtful any script really cares (if they are testing worktree performance, they'd probably make their own worktrees). And it's trickier to get right. 2. Collapse the main and worktree repos into a single scratch repo. This can be done by copying everything from both, preferring any files from the worktree repo. This patch does the second one. With this applied, the example above results in p0000 running successfully.

2021-02-22p5303: measure time to repack with keepLibravatar Jeff King1-2/+32
Add two new tests to measure repack performance. Both tests split the repository into synthetic "pushes", and then leave the remaining objects in a big base pack. The first new test marks an empty pack as "kept" and then passes --honor-pack-keep to avoid including objects in it. That doesn't change the resulting pack, but it does let us compare to the normal repack case to see how much overhead we add to check whether objects are kept or not. The other test is of --stdin-packs, which gives us a sense of how that number scales based on the number of packs we provide as input. In each of those tests, the empty pack isn't considered, but the residual pack (objects that were left over and not included in one of the synthetic push packs) is marked as kept. (Note that in the single-pack case of the --stdin-packs test, there is nothing do since there are no non-excluded packs). Here are some timings on a recent clone of the kernel: 5303.5: repack (1) 57.26(54.59+10.84) 5303.6: repack with kept (1) 57.33(54.80+10.51) in the 50-pack case, things start to slow down: 5303.11: repack (50) 71.54(88.57+4.84) 5303.12: repack with kept (50) 85.12(102.05+4.94) and by the time we hit 1,000 packs, things are substantially worse, even though the resulting pack produced is the same: 5303.17: repack (1000) 216.87(490.79+14.57) 5303.18: repack with kept (1000) 665.63(938.87+15.76) That's because the code paths around handling .keep files are known to scale badly; they look in every single pack file to find each object. Our solution to that was to notice that most repos don't have keep files, and to make that case a fast path. But as soon as you add a single .keep, that part of pack-objects slows down again (even if we have fewer objects total to look at). Likewise, the scaling is pretty extreme on --stdin-packs (but each subsequent test is also being asked to do more work): 5303.7: repack with --stdin-packs (1) 0.01(0.01+0.00) 5303.13: repack with --stdin-packs (50) 3.53(12.07+0.24) 5303.19: repack with --stdin-packs (1000) 195.83(371.82+8.10) Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Taylor Blau <me@ttaylorr.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
