Date: Thu, 23 Jul 2020 22:25:27 +0000 (UTC) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <redmine.journal-86697.20200723222527.182@ruby-lang.org> (raw)

Issue #17031 has been updated by jeremyevans0 (Jeremy Evans).
I've added a pull request that addresses this issue: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/3357
----------------------------------------
Bug #17031: `Kernel#caller_locations(m, n)` should be optimized
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/17031#change-86697
* Author: marcandre (Marc-Andre Lafortune)
* Status: Open
* Priority: Normal
* Backport: 2.5: UNKNOWN, 2.6: UNKNOWN, 2.7: UNKNOWN
----------------------------------------
`Kernel#caller_locations(1, 1)` currently appears to needlessly allocate memory for the whole backtrace.
It allocates ~20kB for a 800-deep stacktrace, vs 1.6 kB for a shallow backtrace.
It is also much slower for long stacktraces: about 7x slower for a 800-deep backtrace than for a shallow one.
Test used:
```ruby
def do_something
location = caller_locations(1, 1).first
end
def test(depth, trigger)
do_something if depth == trigger
test(depth - 1, trigger) unless depth == 0
end
require 'benchmark/ips'
Benchmark.ips do |x|
x.report (:short_backtrace ) {test(800,800)}
x.report (:long_backtrace ) {test(800, 0)}
x.report (:no_caller_locations) {test(800, -1)}
end
require 'memory_profiler'
MemoryProfiler.report { test(800,800) }.pretty_print(scale_bytes: true, detailed_report: false)
MemoryProfiler.report { test(800, 0) }.pretty_print(scale_bytes: true, detailed_report: false)
```
Found when checking memory usage on RuboCop.
