Subject: [PATCH v6 0/7] speed up index load through parallelization
Date: Wed, 26 Sep 2018 15:54:35 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180926195442.1380-1-benpeart@microsoft.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180823154053.20212-1-benpeart@microsoft.com>
Base Ref: master
Web-Diff: https://github.com/benpeart/git/commit/a0300882d4
Checkout: git fetch https://github.com/benpeart/git read-index-multithread-v6 && git checkout a0300882d4
This iteration brings back the Index Entry Offset Table (IEOT) extension
which enables us to multi-thread the cache entry parsing without having
the primary thread have to scan all the entries first. In cases where the
cache entry parsing is the most expensive part, this yields some additional
savings.
Using p0002-read-cache.sh to generate some performance numbers shows how
each of the various patches contribute to the overall performance win.
Test w/100,000 files Baseline Optimize V4 Extensions Entries
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
0002.1: read_cache 22.36 18.74 -16.2% 18.64 -16.6% 12.63 -43.5%
Test w/1,000,000 files Baseline Optimize V4 Extensions Entries
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
0002.1: read_cache 304.40 270.70 -11.1% 195.50 -35.8% 204.82 -32.7%
Note that on the 1,000,000 files case, multi-threading the cache entry parsing
does not yield a performance win. This is because the cost to parse the
index extensions in this repo, far outweigh the cost of loading the cache
entries.

load_cache_entries_thread() 648.604 664.496 15.892
293.74 Total load_cache_entries_thread()
The high cost of parsing the index extensions is driven by the cache tree
and the untracked cache extensions. As this is currently the longest pole,
any reduction in this time will reduce the overall index load times so is
worth further investigation in another patch series.

| + git!read_untracked_extension 797.801 870.244 72.443
One option would be to load each extension on a separate thread but I
believe that is overkill for the vast majority of repos. Instead, some
optimization of the loading code for these two extensions is probably worth
looking into as a quick examination shows that the bulk of the time for both
of them is spent in xcalloc().
