rhg: Don’t compare ambiguous files one byte at a time Even though the use of `BufReader` reduces the number of syscalls to read the file from disk, `.bytes()` yields a separate `Result` for every byte. Creating those results and dispatching on them is most likely costly. Instead, this commit opts for simplicity by reading the entire file into memory and comparing a single pair of byte strings. Note that memory already needs to contain the entire previous contents of the file, as read from the filelog. So with an extremely large file this doubles memory use but does not make it grow by orders of magnitude. At first I wrote code that still avoids reading the entire file into memory and compares one buffer at a time with `BufReader`. Find this code below for posterity. However its correctness is subtle. I ended up preferring the simplicity of the obviously-correct single comparison. ```rust let mut reader = BufReader::new(fobj); let mut expected = &contents_in_p1[..]; loop { let buf = reader.fill_buf().when_reading_file(&fs_path)?; if buf.is_empty() { // Found EOF return Ok(expected.is_empty()); } else if let Some(rest) = expected.drop_prefix(buf) { // What we read so far matches the expected content, continue reading let buf_len = buf.len(); reader.consume(buf_len); expected = rest } else { // Found different content return Ok(false); } } ``` Differential Revision: https://phab.mercurial-scm.org/D11412
