Subject: netd/httpd memory usage
Date: Wed, 7 Dec 2022 21:20:13 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20221207212013.GA25466@dcvr> (raw)

While memory use has mostly gotten under control with scratchpad
avoidance done around Sep (after v1.9.0), it's still higher than
I like :<

Suspiciously, PublicInbox::Smsg::load_from_data still seems to
be causing a big chunk of long-lived allocations on my system:

sub load_from_data ($$) {
	my ($self) = $_[0]; # data = $_[1]
	utf8::decode($_[1]);
	(
		$self->{subject},
		$self->{from},
		$self->{references},

		# To: and Cc: are stored to optimize HDR/XHDR in NNTP since
		# some NNTP clients will use that for message displays.
		# NNTP only, and only stored in Over(view), not Xapian
		$self->{to},
		$self->{cc},

		$self->{blob},
		$self->{mid},

		# NNTP only
		$self->{bytes},
		$self->{lines}
	) = split(/\n/, $_[1]);
}

I'm only on Perl 5.28.1, and looking at Perl 5.3x deltas I see
see some regexp-related leak fixes, perhaps an upgrade will fix
it...

(or work on https://80x24.org/mwrap-perl.git to expand into C
backtraces is required...)

Of course, even single-threaded git packing is using massive memory
use with the linux.git forkgroup :<
