copies: cache the ancestor checking call when tracing copy A good share of the time spent in this function is spent doing ancestors checking. To avoid spending time in duplicated call, we cache the result of calls. In the slower case, this provide a quite significant performance boost. Below are the result for a set of selected pairs (many of them pathological): (And further down is another table that summarize the current state of filelog based vs changeset base copy tracing) The benchmark have been configured to be killed after 6 minutes of runtime, which mean that any detect slower than 2 minutes will be marked as "killed". This drop some useful information about how much slower these case are… but also prevent 99% of the benchmark time to be spent on case that can be labelled "very slow" anyway.

of the current "filelog centric" algorithm, with the "changeset centric" one, we just modified. The changeset centric algorithm is a significant win in many scenario, but they are still various cases where it is quite slower. When many revision has to be considered the cost of retrieving the copy information, creating new dictionaries, merging dictionaries and checking if revision are ancestors of each other can slow things down. The rest of this series, will introduce a rust version of the copy tracing code to deal with most of theses issues.
