2014-01-21t/perf: time rev-list with UNINTERESTING commitsLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+12
We time a straight "rev-list --all" and its "--object" counterpart, both going all the way to the root. However, we do not time a partial history walk. This patch adds an extreme case: a walk over a very small slice of history, but with a very large set of UNINTERESTING tips. This is similar to the connectivity check run by git on a small fetch, or the walk done by any pre-receive hooks that want to check incoming commits. This test reveals a performance regression in git v1.8.4.2, caused by fbd4a70 (list-objects: mark more commits as edges in mark_edges_uninteresting, 2013-08-16): Test fbd4a703^ fbd4a703 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 0001.1: rev-list --all 0.69(0.67+0.02) 0.69(0.68+0.01) +0.0% 0001.2: rev-list --all --objects 3.47(3.44+0.02) 3.48(3.44+0.03) +0.3% 0001.4: rev-list $commit --not --all 0.04(0.04+0.00) 0.04(0.04+0.00) +0.0% 0001.5: rev-list --objects $commit --not --all 0.04(0.03+0.00) 0.27(0.24+0.02) +575.0% Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@peff.net> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2013-12-30pack-bitmap: implement optional name_hash cacheLibravatar Vicent Marti1-1/+2
When we use pack bitmaps rather than walking the object graph, we end up with the list of objects to include in the packfile, but we do not know the path at which any tree or blob objects would be found. In a recently packed repository, this is fine. A fetch would use the paths only as a heuristic in the delta compression phase, and a fully packed repository should not need to do much delta compression. As time passes, though, we may acquire more objects on top of our large bitmapped pack. If clients fetch frequently, then they never even look at the bitmapped history, and all works as usual. However, a client who has not fetched since the last bitmap repack will have "have" tips in the bitmapped history, but "want" newer objects. The bitmaps themselves degrade gracefully in this circumstance. We manually walk the more recent bits of history, and then use bitmaps when we hit them. But we would also like to perform delta compression between the newer objects and the bitmapped objects (both to delta against what we know the user already has, but also between "new" and "old" objects that the user is fetching). The lack of pathnames makes our delta heuristics much less effective. This patch adds an optional cache of the 32-bit name_hash values to the end of the bitmap file. If present, a reader can use it to match bitmapped and non-bitmapped names during delta compression. Here are perf results for p5310: Test origin/master HEAD^ HEAD ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 5310.2: repack to disk 36.81(37.82+1.43) 47.70(48.74+1.41) +29.6% 47.75(48.70+1.51) +29.7% 5310.3: simulated clone 30.78(29.70+2.14) 1.08(0.97+0.10) -96.5% 1.07(0.94+0.12) -96.5% 5310.4: simulated fetch 3.16(6.10+0.08) 3.54(10.65+0.06) +12.0% 1.70(3.07+0.06) -46.2% 5310.6: partial bitmap 36.76(43.19+1.81) 6.71(11.25+0.76) -81.7% 4.08(6.26+0.46) -88.9% You can see that the time spent on an incremental fetch goes down, as our delta heuristics are able to do their work. And we save time on the partial bitmap clone for the same reason.

2013-12-30t/perf: add tests for pack bitmapsLibravatar Jeff King1-0/+56
This adds a few basic perf tests for the pack bitmap code to show off its improvements. The tests are: 1. How long does it take to do a repack (it gets slower with bitmaps, since we have to do extra work)? 2. How long does it take to do a clone (it gets faster with bitmaps)? 3. How does a small fetch perform when we've just repacked? 4. How does a clone perform when we haven't repacked since a week of pushes? Here are results against linux.git: Test origin/master this tree ----------------------------------------------------------------------- 5310.2: repack to disk 33.64(32.64+2.04) 67.67(66.75+1.84) +101.2% 5310.3: simulated clone 30.49(29.47+2.05) 1.20(1.10+0.10) -96.1% 5310.4: simulated fetch 3.49(6.79+0.06) 5.57(22.35+0.07) +59.6% 5310.6: partial bitmap 36.70(43.87+1.81) 8.18(21.92+0.73) -77.7% You can see that we do take longer to repack, but we do way better for further clones. A small fetch performs a bit worse, as we spend way more time on delta compression (note the heavy user CPU time, as we have 8 threads) due to the lack of name hashes for the bitmapped objects. The final test shows how the bitmaps degrade over time between packs. There's still a significant speedup over the non-bitmap case, but we don't do quite as well (we have to spend time accessing the "new" objects the old fashioned way, including delta compression).

2013-12-12diff: don't read index when --no-index is givenLibravatar Thomas Gummerer1-0/+22
git diff --no-index ... currently reads the index, during setup, when calling gitmodules_config(). This results in worse performance when the index is not actually needed. This patch avoids calling gitmodules_config() when the --no-index option is given. The times for executing "git diff --no-index" in the WebKit repository are improved as follows: Test HEAD~3 HEAD ------------------------------------------------------------------ 4001.1: diff --no-index 0.24(0.15+0.09) 0.01(0.00+0.00) -95.8% An additional improvement of this patch is that "git diff --no-index" no longer breaks when the index file is corrupt, which makes it possible to use it for investigating the broken repository. To improve the possible usage as investigation tool for broken repositories, setup_git_directory_gently() is also not called when the --no-index option is given. Also add a test to guard against future breakages, and a performance test to show the improvements.

A #! line in these files is misleading, since these scriptlets are meant to be sourced with '.' (using whatever shell sources them) instead of run directly using the interpreter named on the #! line.

2013-03-28Implement line-history search (git log -L)Libravatar Thomas Rast1-0/+34
This is a rewrite of much of Bo's work, mainly in an effort to split it into smaller, easier to understand routines. The algorithm is built around the struct range_set, which encodes a series of line ranges as intervals [a,b). This is used in two contexts: * A set of lines we are tracking (which will change as we dig through history). * To encode diffs, as pairs of ranges. The main routine is range_set_map_across_diff(). It processes the diff between a commit C and some parent P. It determines which diff hunks are relevant to the ranges tracked in C, and computes the new ranges for P. The algorithm is then simply to process history in topological order from newest to oldest, computing ranges and (partial) diffs. At branch points, we need to merge the ranges we are watching. We will find that many commits do not affect the chosen ranges, and mark them TREESAME (in addition to those already filtered by pathspec limiting). Another pass of history simplification then gets rid of such commits. This is wired as an extra filtering pass in the log machinery. This currently only reduces code duplication, but should allow for other simplifications and options to be used. Finally, we hook a diff printer into the output chain. Ideally we would wire directly into the diff logic, to optionally use features like word diff. However, that will require some major reworking of the diff chain, so we completely replace the output with our own diff for now. As this was a GSoC project, and has quite some history by now, many people have helped.

We already purged it in b3431bc (Don't use seq in tests, not everyone has it, 2007-05-02), but a few new instances have crept in. They went unnoticed because they are in scripts that are not run by default. Replace them with test_seq that is implemented with a Perl snippet (proposed by Jeff). This is better than inlining this snippet everywhere it's needed because it's easier to read and it's easier to change the implementation (e.g. to C) if we ever decide to remove Perl from the test suite. Note that test_seq is not a complete replacement for seq(1). It just has what we need now, in addition that it makes it possible for us to do something like "test_seq a m" if we wanted to in the future. There are also many places that do `for i in 1 2 3 ...` but I'm not sure if it's worth converting them to test_seq. That would introduce running more processes of Perl.

This puts delta resolving on each base on a separate thread, one base cache per thread. Per-thread data is grouped in struct thread_local. When running with nr_threads == 1, no pthreads calls are made. The system essentially runs in non-thread mode.

2012-02-17Introduce a performance testing frameworkLibravatar Thomas Rast9-0/+688
This introduces a performance testing framework under t/perf/. It tries to be as close to the test-lib.sh infrastructure as possible, and thus should be easy to get used to for git developers. The following points were considered for the implementation: 1. You usually want to compare arbitrary revisions/build trees against each other. They may not have the performance test under consideration, or even the perf-lib.sh infrastructure. To cope with this, the 'run' script lets you specify arbitrary build dirs and revisions. It even automatically builds the revisions if it doesn't have them at hand yet. 2. Usually you would not want to run all tests. It would take too long anyway. The 'run' script lets you specify which tests to run; or you can also do it manually. There is a Makefile for discoverability and 'make clean', but it is not meant for real-world use. 3. Creating test repos from scratch in every test is extremely time-consuming, and shipping or downloading such large/weird repos is out of the question. We leave this decision to the user. Two different sizes of test repos can be configured, and the scripts just copy one or more of those (using hardlinks for the object store). By default it tries to use the build tree's git.git repository. This is fairly fast and versatile. Using a copy instead of a clone preserves many properties that the user may want to test for, such as lots of loose objects, unpacked refs, etc. Signed-off-by: Thomas Rast <trast@student.ethz.ch> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
