[RFC/PATCH 0/2] Enhance performance of blame -C -C

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

 



This pair of patches aims at increasing performance of copy detection in blame
by avoiding unnecessary comparisons. Note that since I'm new to this code, I
might have misunderstood something.

There are two cases than I aim to fix:

1) Copy detection is done by comparing all outstanding chunks of the target file
  to all blobs in the parent. After that, chunks with suitable matches are split, and
  comparison is repeated again, until there are no new matches. The trouble is,
  chunks that didn't match the first time, and weren't split, are compared against
  the same set of blobs again and again. I add a flag to track that.

  On my test case it decreased blame -C -C time from over 10min to ~6min; 4min with -C80.

2) Chunks are split only if the match scores above a certain threshold. I understand
  that a split of an entry cannot score more than the entry itself. Thus, it is pointless
  to even try doing costly comparisons for small entries.

  (Time goes down to 4min; 2min with -C80)



Alexander Gavrilov (2):
      Avoid rescanning unchanged entries in search for copies.
      Do not try to detect move/copy for entries below threshold.
