[PATCH v2 5/5] Accelerate clear_skip_worktree_from_present_files() by caching

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

 



From: Elijah Newren <newren@xxxxxxxxx>

Trying to clear the skip-worktree bit from files that are present does
present some computational overhead, for sparse-checkouts.  (We do not
do the bit clearing in non-sparse-checkouts.)  Optimize it as follows:

Rather than lstat()'ing every SKIP_WORKTREE path, take advantage of the
fact that entire directories will often be missing, especially for cone
mode and even more so ever since commit 55dfcf9591 ("sparse-checkout:
clear tracked sparse dirs", 2021-09-08).  If we have already determined
that the parent directory of a file (or other previous ancestor) does
not exist, then the file cannot exist either so we do not need to
lstat() it separately.

Timings for p2000 included below, reformatted to fit in normal commit
message line lengths, which compare three things:
  * Timings before this series
  * Timings of the unoptimized version of
    clear_skip_worktree_from_present_files() from a few commits ago
  * Timings after the optimization in this commit

(NOTE: t/perf/ appears to have timing resolution only down to 0.01 s,
which presents significant measurement error when timings only differ by
0.01s.  I don't trust any such timings below, and yet all the optimized
results differ by at most 0.01s.)

So, with the optimization, the extra work appears to be essentially 0
for sparse-checkouts that are also using sparse-indexes (even before my
optimization), and the extra work appears to be just marginally more
than 0 for sparse-checkouts that are using full indexes.
