On a certain ugly /$INBOX/$MESSAGE_ID/T/ endpoint with 1000
messages in the thread, this cuts memory usage from 2.5M to 1.9M
(which still isn't great, but it's a start).

The "loose" (Subject:-based) thread matching yields too many
hits for some common subjects (e.g. "[GIT] Networking" on LKML)
and causes thread skeletons to not show the current messages.
Favor strict matches in the query and only add loose matches
if there's space.
While working on this, I noticed the backwards --reindex walk
breaks `tid' on v1 repositories, at least. That bug was hidden
by the Subject: match logic and not discovered until now. It
will be fixed separately.

The query planner in sqlite3 < 3.8 is not very clever, so when it sees
num mentioned in the query filter, it decides not to use the fast idx_ts
index and goes for the much slower autoindex. CentOS-7 still has
sqlite-3.7, so loading the http landing page of a very large archive
(LKML) was taking over 18 seconds, as oppposed to milliseconds on a
system with sqlite-3.8 and above:
$ time sqlite3 -line over.sqlite3 'SELECT ts,ds,ddd FROM over \
WHERE num > 0 ORDER BY ts DESC LIMIT 1000;' > /dev/null
real 0m19.610s
user 0m17.805s
sys 0m1.805s
$ sqlite3 -line over.sqlite3 'EXPLAIN QUERY PLAN SELECT ts,ds,ddd \
FROM over WHERE num > 0 ORDER BY ts DESC LIMIT 1000;'
selectid = 0
order = 0
from = 0
detail = SEARCH TABLE over USING INDEX sqlite_autoindex_over_1 (num>?) (~250000 rows)
However, if we slightly tweak the query per SQlite recommendations [1]
by adding + to the num filter, we force it to use the correct index
and see much faster performance:
$ time sqlite3 -line over.sqlite3 'SELECT ts,ds,ddd FROM over \
WHERE +num > 0 ORDER BY ts DESC LIMIT 1000;' > /dev/null
real 0m0.007s
user 0m0.005s
sys 0m0.002s
$ sqlite3 -line over.sqlite3 'EXPLAIN QUERY PLAN SELECT ts,ds,ddd \
FROM over WHERE +num > 0 ORDER BY ts DESC LIMIT 1000;'
selectid = 0
order = 0
from = 0
detail = SCAN TABLE over USING INDEX idx_ts (~1464303 rows)
This appears to be the only place where this is needed in order to avoid
running into this issue.
As far as I can tell, this change has no impact on systems running newer
sqlite3 (>= 3.8).

We can't have files with permissions inconsistent with what's
in git objects.
|
|
No need to read what we don't need into the Perl process.
Fix some broken capitalization while we're at it.
|
|
We only need to call get_thread beyond 1000 messages for
fetching entire mboxes. It's probably too much for the HTML
display otherwise.
|
|
Favor simpler internal APIs this time around, this cuts
a fair amount of code out and takes another step towards
removing Xapian as a dependency for v2 repos.
|
|
We can use id_batch in the common case to speed up full mbox
retrievals. Gigantic msets are still a problem, but will
be fixed in future commits.
|
|
OFFSET in SQLite gets painful to deal with. Instead,
rely on timestamps (from Received:) for pagination.
This also sets us up for more precise Date searching
in case we want it.
|
|
While SQLite is faster than Xapian for some queries we
use, it sucks at handling OFFSET. Fortunately, we do
not need offsets when retrieving sorted results and
can bake it into the query.
For inbox.comp.version-control.git (v1 Xapian),
XOVER and XHDR are over 20x faster.
|

JOIN operations on SQLite can be disasterously slow.
This reduces per-message pages with the thread overview
at the bottom of those pages from over 800ms to ~60ms.
In comparison, the v1 code took around 70-80ms using
Xapian on my machine.
|
|
In many cases, we do not care about the total number of
messages. It's a rather expensive operation in SQLite
(Xapian only provides an estimate).
For LKML, this brings top-level /$INBOX/ loading time from
~375ms to around 60ms on my system. Days ago, this operation
was taking 800-900ms(!) for me before introducing the SQLite
overview DB.
|
|
This ought to provide better performance and scalability
which is less dependent on inbox size. Xapian does not
seem optimized for some queries used by the WWW homepage,
Atom feeds, XOVER and NEWNEWS NNTP commands.
This can actually make Xapian optional for NNTP usage,
and allow more functionality to work without Xapian
installed.
Indexing performance was extremely bad at first, but
DBI::Profile helped me optimize away problematic queries.
