changelog: disable delta chains
This patch disables delta chains on changelogs. After this patch, new
entries on changelogs - including existing changelogs - will be stored
as the fulltext of that data (likely compressed). No delta computation
will be performed.
An overview of delta chains and data justifying this change follows.
Revlogs try to store entries as a delta against a previous entry (either
a parent revision in the case of generaldelta or the previous physical
revision when not using generaldelta). Most of the time this is the
correct thing to do: it frequently results in less CPU usage and smaller
storage.
Delta chains are most effective when the base revision being deltad
against is similar to the current data. This tends to occur naturally
for manifests and file data, since only small parts of each tend to
change with each revision. Changelogs, however, are a different story.
Changelog entries represent changesets/commits. And unless commits in a
repository are homogonous (same author, changing same files, similar
commit messages, etc), a delta from one entry to the next tends to be
relatively large compared to the size of the entry. This means that
delta chains tend to be short. How short? Here is the full vs delta
revision breakdown on some real world repos:
Repo % Full % Delta Max Length
hg 45.8 54.2 6
mozilla-central 42.4 57.6 8
mozilla-unified 42.5 57.5 17
pypy 46.1 53.9 6
python-zstandard 46.1 53.9 3
(I threw in python-zstandard as an example of a repo that is homogonous.
It contains a small Python project with changes all from the same
author.)
Contrast this with the manifest revlog for these repos, where 99+% of
revisions are deltas and delta chains run into the thousands.
So delta chains aren't as useful on changelogs. But even a short delta
chain may provide benefits. Let's measure that.
Delta chains may require less CPU to read revisions if the CPU time
spent reading smaller deltas is less than the CPU time used to
decompress larger individual entries. We can measure this via
`hg perfrevlog -c -d 1` to iterate a revlog to resolve each revision's
fulltext. Here are the results of that command on a repo using delta
chains in its changelog and on a repo without delta chains:

The data clearly shows that it takes less wall and CPU time to resolve
revisions when there are no delta chains in the changelogs, regardless
of the direction of traversal. Furthermore, not using a delta chain
means that fulltext resolution in reverse is as fast as iterating
forward. So not using delta chains on the changelog is a clear CPU win
for reading operations.
An example of a user-visible operation showing this speed-up is revset
evaluation. Here are results for
`hg perfrevset 'author(gps) or author(mpm)'`:
hg
! wall 1.655506 comb 1.660000 user 1.650000 sys 0.010000 (best of 6)

What about 00changelog.i size?

pypy 20,740,699 20,659,741
The data shows that removing delta chains from the changelog makes the
changelog smaller.
Delta chains are also used during changegroup generation. This
operation essentially converts a series of revisions to one large
delta chain. And changegroup generation is smart: if the delta in
the revlog matches what the changegroup is emitting, it will reuse
the delta instead of recalculating it. We can measure the impact
removing changelog delta chains has on changegroup generation via
`hg perfchangegroupchangelog`:
hg
! wall 1.589245 comb 1.590000 user 1.590000 sys 0.000000 (best of 7)
! wall 1.788060 comb 1.790000 user 1.790000 sys 0.000000 (best of 6)

The data shows eliminating delta chains makes the changelog part of
changegroup generation slower. This is expected since we now have to
compute deltas for revisions where we could recycle the delta before.
It is worth putting this regression into context of overall changegroup
times. Here is the rough total CPU time spent in changegroup generation
for various repos while using delta chains on the changelog:
Repo CPU Time (s) CPU Time w/ compression
hg 4.50 7.05
mozilla-central 111.1 222.0
pypy 28.68 75.5
Before compression, removing delta chains from the changegroup adds
~4.4% overhead to hg changegroup generation, 1.3% to mozilla-central,
and 2.0% to pypy. When you factor in zlib compression, these percentages
are roughly divided by 2.
While the increased CPU usage for changegroup generation is unfortunate,
I think it is acceptable because the percentage is small, server
operators (those likely impacted most by this) have other mechanisms
to mitigate CPU consumption (namely reducing zlib compression level and
pre-generated clone bundles), and because there is room to optimize this
in the future. For example, we could use the nullid as the base revision,
effectively encoding the full revision for each entry in the changegroup.
When doing this, `hg perfchangegroupchangelog` nearly halves:
mozilla-unified
! wall 21.168075 comb 21.170000 user 21.130000 sys 0.040000 (best of 3)
! wall 11.196461 comb 11.200000 user 11.190000 sys 0.010000 (best of 3)
This looks very promising as a future optimization opportunity.
It's worth that the changes in test-acl.t to the changegroup part size.
This is because revision 6 in the changegroup had a delta chain of
length 2 before and after this patch the base revision is nullrev.
When the base revision is nullrev, cg2packer.deltaparent() hardcodes
the *previous* revision from the changegroup as the delta parent.
This caused the delta in the changegroup to switch base revisions,
the delta to change, and the size to change accordingly. While the
size increased in this case, I think sizes will remain the same
on average, as the delta base for changelog revisions doesn't matter
too much (as this patch shows). So, I don't consider this a regression.
