[PATCH v3 5/8] p5303: measure time to repack with keep

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

 



From: Jeff King <peff@xxxxxxxx>

Add two new tests to measure repack performance. Both test 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)

Likewise, the scaling is pretty extreme on --stdin-packs:

  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)

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).
