Message-ID: <20160914235547.h3n2otje2hec6u7k@sigill.intra.peff.net> (raw)
I try a lot of different experiments with git performance, some of them
more hare-brained than others. The ones that succeed end up as real
patches. But I hate for the ones that fail to die a quiet death. Then
nobody learns what _doesn't_ work, and nobody has the opportunity to
point out the spot where I made a stupid mistake that invalidates the
whole result.
Here are two performance experiments that did _not_ turn out. They
are in patch form, because I want to document exactly what I did
(especially because it helps in the "stupid mistake" case, or if
somebody wants to try building on my results).
So without further ado:
[1/2]: obj_hash: convert to a critbit tree
[2/2]: use zstd zlib wrapper
