[PATCH] Speedup bash completion loading

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



On my slow laptop (P3 700MHz), system-wide bash completions take too
much time to load (> 1s), and significant fraction of this time is spent
loading git-completion.bash:

    $ time bash -c '. git-completion.bash'  # before this patch

    real    0m0.317s
    user    0m0.250s
    sys     0m0.060s

I've tracked down that the most time is spent warming up merge_strategy,
all_command & porcelain_command caches.

Since git is not used in each and every interactive xterm, I think it
would be perfectly ok to load completion support with cold caches, and
then load needed thing lazily.

As __git_merge_stratiegies(), __git_all_commands() &
__git_porcelain_command() already cache their results, we can safely
remove associated cache initialization code and be done with it:

    $ time bash -c '. git-completion.bash'  # after this patch

    real    0m0.069s
    user    0m0.050s
    sys     0m0.020s
