From: Derrick Stolee <dstolee@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> p2000-sparse-operations.sh compares different Git commands in repositories with many files at HEAD but using sparse-checkout to focus on a small portion of those files. Add extra copies of the repository that use the sparse-index format so we can track how that affects the performance of different commands. At this point in time, the sparse-index is 100% overhead from the CPU front, and this is measurable in these tests: Test --------------------------------------------------------------- 2000.2: git status (full-index-v3) 0.59(0.51+0.12) 2000.3: git status (full-index-v4) 0.59(0.52+0.11) 2000.4: git status (sparse-index-v3) 1.40(1.32+0.12) 2000.5: git status (sparse-index-v4) 1.41(1.36+0.08) 2000.6: git add -A (full-index-v3) 2.32(1.97+0.19) 2000.7: git add -A (full-index-v4) 2.17(1.92+0.14) 2000.8: git add -A (sparse-index-v3) 2.31(2.21+0.15) 2000.9: git add -A (sparse-index-v4) 2.30(2.20+0.13) 2000.10: git add . (full-index-v3) 2.39(2.02+0.20) 2000.11: git add . (full-index-v4) 2.20(1.94+0.16) 2000.12: git add . (sparse-index-v3) 2.36(2.27+0.12) 2000.13: git add . (sparse-index-v4) 2.33(2.21+0.16) 2000.14: git commit -a -m A (full-index-v3) 2.47(2.12+0.20) 2000.15: git commit -a -m A (full-index-v4) 2.26(2.00+0.17) 2000.16: git commit -a -m A (sparse-index-v3) 3.01(2.92+0.16) 2000.17: git commit -a -m A (sparse-index-v4) 3.01(2.94+0.15) Note that there is very little difference between the v3 and v4 index formats when the sparse-index is enabled. This is primarily due to the fact that the relative file sizes are the same, and the command time is mostly taken up by parsing tree objects to expand the sparse index into a full one. With the current file layout, the index file sizes are given by this table: | full index | sparse index | +-------------+--------------+ v3 | 108 MiB | 1.6 MiB | v4 | 80 MiB | 1.2 MiB | Future updates will improve the performance of Git commands when the index is sparse.
