[PATCH 7/7] merge-ort, diffcore-rename: employ cached renames when possible

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

 



From: Elijah Newren <newren@xxxxxxxxx>

When there are many renames between the old base of a series of commits
and the new base, the way sequencer.c, merge-recursive.c, and
diffcore-rename.c have traditionally split the work resulted in
redetecting the same renames with each and every commit being
transplanted.  To address this, the last several commits have been
creating a cache of rename detection results, determining when it was
safe to use such a cache in subsequent merge operations, adding helper
functions, and so on.  See the previous half dozen commit messages for
additional discussion of this optimization, particularly the message a
few commits ago entitled "add code to check for whether cached renames
can be reused".  This commit finally ties all of that work together,
modifying the merge algorithm to make use of these cached renames.

For the testcases mentioned in commit 557ac0350d ("merge-ort: begin
performance work; instrument with trace2_region_* calls", 2020-10-28),
this change improves the performance as follows:

                            Before                  After
    no-renames:        5.665 s ±  0.129 s     5.624 s ±  0.077 s
    mega-renames:     11.435 s ±  0.158 s    10.213 s ±  0.032 s
    just-one-mega:   494.2  ms ±  6.1  ms   497.6  ms ±  5.3  ms

That's a fairly small improvement, but mostly because the previous
optimizations were so effective for these particular testcases; this
optimization only kicks in when the others don't.  If we undid the
basename-guided rename detection and skip-irrelevant-renames
optimizations, then we'd see that this series by itself improved
performance as follows:

                   Before Basename Series   After Just This Series
    no-renames:      13.815 s ±  0.062 s      5.814 s ±  0.094 s
    mega-renames:  1799.937 s ±  0.493 s    303.225 s ±  1.330 s

Since this optimization kicks in to help accelerate cases where the
previous optimizations do not apply, this last comparison shows that
this cached-renames optimization has the potential to help signficantly
in cases that don't meet the requirements for the other optimizations to
be effective.

The changes made in this optimization also lay some important groundwork
for a future optimization around having collect_merge_info() avoid
recursing into subtrees in more cases.
