perf: clear vfs audit_cache before each run When generating a stream clone, we spend a large amount of time auditing path. Before this changes, the first run was warming the vfs cache for the other runs, leading to a large runtime difference and a "faulty" reported timing for the operation. We now clear this important cache between run to get a more realistic timing. Below are some example of median time change when clearing these cases. The maximum time for a run did not changed significantly. ### data-env-vars.name = mozilla-central-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog # benchmark.name = hg.perf.exchange.stream.generate # bin-env-vars.hg.flavor = default # bin-env-vars.hg.py-re2-module = default # benchmark.variants.version = latest no-clearing: 17.289905 cache-clearing: 21.587965 (+24.86%, +4.30) ## data-env-vars.name = mozilla-central-2024-03-22-zstd-sparse-revlog no-clearing: 32.670748 cache-clearing: 40.467095 (+23.86%, +7.80) ## data-env-vars.name = mozilla-try-2019-02-18-zstd-sparse-revlog no-clearing: 37.838858 cache-clearing: 46.072749 (+21.76%, +8.23) ## data-env-vars.name = mozilla-unified-2024-03-22-zstd-sparse-revlog no-clearing: 32.969395 cache-clearing: 39.646209 (+20.25%, +6.68) In addition, this significantly reduce the timing difference between the performance command, from the perf extensions and a `real `hg bundle` call producing a stream bundle. Some significant differences remain especially on the "mozilla-try" repositories, but they are now smaller. Note that some of that difference will actually not be attributable to the stream generation (like maybe phases or branch map computation). Below are some benchmarks done on a currently draft changeset fixing some unrelated slowness in `hg bundle` (34a78972af409d1ff37c29e60f6ca811ad1a457d) ### data-env-vars.name = mozilla-central-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog # bin-env-vars.hg.flavor = default # bin-env-vars.hg.py-re2-module = default hg.perf.exchange.stream.generate: 21.587965 hg.command.bundle: 24.301799 (+12.57%, +2.71) ## data-env-vars.name = mozilla-central-2024-03-22-zstd-sparse-revlog hg.perf.exchange.stream.generate: 40.467095 hg.command.bundle: 44.831317 (+10.78%, +4.36) ## data-env-vars.name = mozilla-unified-2024-03-22-zstd-sparse-revlog hg.perf.exchange.stream.generate: 39.646209 hg.command.bundle: 45.395258 (+14.50%, +5.75) ## data-env-vars.name = mozilla-try-2019-02-18-zstd-sparse-revlog hg.perf.exchange.stream.generate: 46.072749 hg.command.bundle: 55.882608 (+21.29%, +9.81) ## data-env-vars.name = mozilla-try-2023-03-22-zlib-general-delta hg.perf.exchange.stream.generate: 334.716708 hg.command.bundle: 377.856767 (+12.89%, +43.14) ## data-env-vars.name = mozilla-try-2023-03-22-zstd-sparse-revlog hg.perf.exchange.stream.generate: 302.972301 hg.command.bundle: 326.098755 (+7.63%, +23.13)

perf: start recording total time after warming The warming might be costly and this should not affect the "time profile" of the actual collection.

perf: run the gc before each run The python garbage collector is a large source of performance troubles, we run it right before the timed section to reduce the change for the gc to add noise to the benchmark.

perf: allow profiling of more than one run By default, we still profile the first run only. However profiling more run help to understand side effect from one run to the other. So we add an option to be able to do so.

profiler: flush after writing the profiler output Otherwise, the profiler output might only partially appears until the next flush of the buffer. Since profiling often happens for long operation, the next flush can be a long time away.

stream-clone: disable gc for the entry listing section for the v2 format This is similar to the change we did for the v3 format in 6e4c8366c5ce. The benchmark bellow show this gives us a notable gains, especially on larger repositories. ### benchmark.name = hg.perf.stream-locked-section # benchmark.name = hg.perf.stream-locked-section # bin-env-vars.hg.flavor = default # bin-env-vars.hg.py-re2-module = default # benchmark.variants.version = v2 ## data-env-vars.name = pypy-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog 5e931bf8707c: 0.503820 ~~~~~ 1106d1bf695e: 0.470078 (-6.70%, -0.03) ## data-env-vars.name = pypy-2024-03-22-zstd-sparse-revlog 5e931bf8707c: 0.535756 ~~~~~ 1106d1bf695e: 0.490249 (-8.49%, -0.05) ## data-env-vars.name = heptapod-public-2024-03-25-zstd-sparse-revlog 5e931bf8707c: 1.327041 ~~~~~ 1106d1bf695e: 1.174636 (-11.48%, -0.15) ## data-env-vars.name = netbeans-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog 5e931bf8707c: 2.439158 ~~~~~ 1106d1bf695e: 2.220515 (-8.96%, -0.22) ## data-env-vars.name = netbeans-2019-11-07-zstd-sparse-revlog 5e931bf8707c: 2.630794 ~~~~~ 1106d1bf695e: 2.261473 (-14.04%, -0.37) ## data-env-vars.name = mozilla-central-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog 5e931bf8707c: 5.769002 ~~~~~ 1106d1bf695e: 5.062000 (-12.26%, -0.71) ## data-env-vars.name = mozilla-try-2019-02-18-zstd-sparse-revlog 5e931bf8707c: 13.351750 ~~~~~ 1106d1bf695e: 12.346655 (-7.53%, -1.01) ## data-env-vars.name = mozilla-central-2024-03-22-zstd-sparse-revlog 5e931bf8707c: 10.772939 ~~~~~ 1106d1bf695e: 9.495407 (-11.86%, -1.28) ## data-env-vars.name = mozilla-unified-2024-03-22-zstd-sparse-revlog 5e931bf8707c: 10.864297 ~~~~~ 1106d1bf695e: 9.475597 (-12.78%, -1.39) ## data-env-vars.name = mozilla-try-2023-03-22-zstd-sparse-revlog 5e931bf8707c: 17.448335 ~~~~~ 1106d1bf695e: 16.027474 (-8.14%, -1.42)

phases: rework the logic of _pushdiscoveryphase to bound complexity This rework the various graph traversal in _pushdiscoveryphase to keep the complexity in check. This is done though a couple of things: - first, limiting the space we have to explore, for example, if we are not in publishing push, we don't need to consider remote draft roots that are also draft locally, as there is nothing to be moved there. - avoid unbounded descendant computation, and use the faster "rev between" computation. This provide a massive boost to performance when exchanging with repository with a massive amount of draft, like mozilla-try: ### data-env-vars.name = mozilla-try-2023-03-22-zstd-sparse-revlog # benchmark.name = hg.command.push # bin-env-vars.hg.flavor = default # bin-env-vars.hg.py-re2-module = default # benchmark.variants.explicit-rev = all-out-heads # benchmark.variants.issue6528 = disabled # benchmark.variants.protocol = ssh # benchmark.variants.reuse-external-delta-parent = default ## benchmark.variants.revs = any-1-extra-rev before: 20.346590 seconds after: 11.232059 seconds (-38.15%, -7.48 seconds) ## benchmark.variants.revs = any-100-extra-rev before: 24.752051 seconds after: 15.367412 seconds (-37.91%, -9.38 seconds) After this changes, the push operation is still quite too slow. Some of this can be attributed to general phases slowness (reading all the roots from disk for example) and other know slowness (not using persistent-nodemap, branchmap, tags, etc. We are also working on them, but with this series, phase discovery during push no longer showing up in profile and this is a pretty nice and bit low-hanging fruit out of the way. ### (same case as the above) # benchmark.variants.revs = any-1-extra-rev pre-%ln-change: 44.235070 this-changeset: 11.232059 seconds (-74.61%, -33.00 seconds) # benchmark.variants.revs = any-100-extra-rev pre-%ln-change: 49.234697 this-changeset: 15.367412 seconds (-68.79%, -33.87 seconds) Note that with this change, the `hg push` performance is now much closer to the `hg pull` performance, even it still lagging behind a bit. (and the overall performance are still too slow). ### data-env-vars.name = mozilla-try-2023-03-22-ds2-pnm # benchmark.variants.explicit-rev = all-out-heads # benchmark.variants.issue6528 = disabled # benchmark.variants.protocol = ssh # benchmark.variants.pulled-delta-reuse-policy = default # bin-env-vars.hg.flavor = rust ## benchmark.variants.revs = any-1-extra-rev hg.command.pull: 6.517450 hg.command.push: 11.219888 ## benchmark.variants.revs = any-100-extra-rev hg.command.pull: 10.160991 hg.command.push: 14.251107 ### data-env-vars.name = mozilla-try-2023-03-22-zstd-sparse-revlog # bin-env-vars.hg.py-re2-module = default # benchmark.variants.explicit-rev = all-out-heads # benchmark.variants.issue6528 = disabled # benchmark.variants.protocol = ssh # benchmark.variants.pulled-delta-reuse-policy = default ## bin-env-vars.hg.flavor = default ## benchmark.variants.revs = any-1-extra-rev hg.command.pull: 8.577772 hg.command.push: 11.232059 ## bin-env-vars.hg.flavor = default ## benchmark.variants.revs = any-100-extra-rev hg.command.pull: 13.152976 hg.command.push: 15.367412 ## bin-env-vars.hg.flavor = rust ## benchmark.variants.revs = any-1-extra-rev hg.command.pull: 8.731982 hg.command.push: 11.178751 ## bin-env-vars.hg.flavor = rust ## benchmark.variants.revs = any-100-extra-rev hg.command.pull: 13.184236 hg.command.push: 15.620843

phases: introduce a performant efficient way to access revision in a set This will be useful in the next changesets.

phases: use revision number in `_pushdiscoveryphase` We now reach our target checkpoint in terms of rev-num conversion. The `_pushdiscoveryphase` function is now performing graph computation based on revision number only. Avoiding repeated conversion from node-id to rev-num. See previous changeset updated `new_heads` for rationnal. Again, time saved in the 100 milliseconds order of magnitude for the mozilla-try benchmark I have been using. However, wow that the logic is done using revision number, we can look into having better logic in the next changesets, which will provide a much bigger speedup.

phases: move RemotePhasesSummary to revision number This continue our quest to align more logic on revision number instead of node-ids. The motivation is similar to the change to `new_heads` and `analyze_remote_phases` a few changeset earlier. Again, we take this as an opportunity to rename the class, and the attribute to the new naming scheme. This will highlight the need for code update for any code using it an expecting node-ids. Many of the rev-num → node-id conversion we had to introduce in the previous changesets can now be removed. More will be removed in the future as we continue to align code toward rev-num usage. time saved in the 100 milliseconds order of magnitude for the mozilla-try benchmark I have been using.

phases: stop using `repo.set` in `remotephasessummary` The `repository.set` create changectx on the fly, an expensive operation. Using `repo.revs` and a direct rev-num → node-id translation will be significantly faster. This is especially true as we prepare ourself to no longer do the rev-num → node-id transalation there. The speedup is a bit lost in the overall noisyness of the slow phase discovery algorithm, but it save a small amount of time in my benchmark.

phases: use revision number in analyze_remote_phases Same logic as the previous change to `new_heads`, see rationnal there. This avoids a small number of `nodes -> revs` conversion speeding thing up in the 100 milliseconds order of magnitude for the worses cases. However, the rest of the logic is noisy enough that it hardly matters for now.

phases: use revision number in new_heads All graph operations will be done using revision numbers, so passing nodes only means they will eventually get converted to revision numbers internally. As part of an effort to align the code on using revision number we make the `phases.newheads` function operated on revision number, taking them as input and using them in returns, instead of the node-id it used to consume and produce. This is part of multiple changesets effort to translate more part of the logic, but is done step by step to facilitate the identification of issue that might arise in mercurial core and extensions. To make the change simpler to handle for third party extensions, we also rename the function, using a more modern form. This will help detecting the different between the node-id version and the rev-num version. I also take this as an opportunity to add some comment about possible performance improvement for the future. They don't matter too much now, but they are worse exploring in a while.

phases: convert remote phase root to node while reading them This is currently a bit silly as we will convert them back to node right after, but that is an intermediate step before doing more disruptive changes.

phases: more compact error handling in analyzeremotephases using an intermediate variable result in more readable code, so let us use it.

push: rework the computation of fallbackheads to be correct The previous computation tried to be smart but ended up being wrong. This was caught by phase movement test while reworking the phase discovery logic to be faster. The previous logic was failing to catch case where the pushed set was not based on a common heads (i.e. when the discovery seemed to have "over discovered" content, outside the pushed set) In the following graph, `e` is a common head and we `hg push -r f`. We need to detect `c` as a fallback heads and we previous failed to do so:: e | d f |/ c | b | a The performance impact of the change seems minimal. On the most impacted repository at hand (mozilla-try), the slowdown seems mostly mixed in the overall noise `hg push` but seems to be in the hundred of milliseconds order of magnitude. When using rust, we seems to be a bit faster, probably because we leverage more accelaratd internals. I added a couple of performance related common for further investigation later on.

revset: stop serializing node when using "%ln" Turning hundred of thousand of node from node to hex and back can be slow… what about we stop doing it? In many case were we are using node id we should be using revision id. However this is not a good reason to have a stupidly slow implementation of "%ln". This caught my attention again because the phase discovery during push make an extensive use of "%ln" or huge set. In absolute, that phase discovery probably should use "%ld" and need to improves its algorithmic complexity, but improving "%ln" seems simple and long overdue. This greatly speeds up `hg push` on repository with many drafts.

bundlespec: drop unused _bundlespecvariants dictionary Why do we have a `_bundlespecvariants`?

bundlespec: type the _bundlespeccontentopts dictionary If only we had a tool to detect the kind of stupid error we just fixed… ho wait.

bundlespec: fix the "streamv2" and "streamv3-exp" variant In c4aab3661f25, we broken this feature by adding unicode instead of bytes to the dictionary. On the other hand, this feature was never tested, so augment the tests to tests this.

perf: create the temporary target next to the source in stream-consume See inline comment for rational.

bundlespec: rationalize the way we specify stream bundle version Instead of having weird dedicated option for each version (v2, v3, etc) we reuse the same "stream" parameters. This is consistent with the ability to request a stream clone using "none-v2;stream=v2". This changeset introduce no user visible change, this is pure internal cleaning.

bundle: do no check the changegroup version if no changegroup is included We don't need to check the compatibility of something we will not use. In practice this was getting in the was of `streamv2` bundles on a narrow repository as the 'cg.version=02' value was rejected by this checks.

perf-stream-consume: use the source repository config when applying This might contains critical configuration for the benchmark, like enabling of extensions like narrow.
