# HG changeset patch # User Boris Feld # Date 1542916922 -3600 # Node ID 3c842749debc149fe3eac8692b5b88232d953d12 # Parent ce401300f981330db9fe95124ec84b3595468d21 match: avoid translating glob to matcher multiple times for large sets For hgignore with many globs, the resulting regexp might not fit under the 20K length limit. So the patterns need to be broken up in smaller pieces. Before this change, the logic was re-starting the full process from scratch for each smaller pieces, including the translation of globs into regexp. Effectively doing the work over and over. If the 20K limit is reached, we are likely in a case where there is many such glob, so exporting them is especially expensive and we should be careful not to do that work more than once. To work around this, we now translate glob to regexp once and for all. Then, we assemble the resulting individual regexp into valid blocks. This raises a very significant performance win for large `.hgignore file`: Before: ! wall 0.153153 comb 0.150000 user 0.150000 sys 0.000000 (median of 66) After: ! wall 0.059793 comb 0.060000 user 0.060000 sys 0.000000 (median of 100) diff -r ce401300f981 -r 3c842749debc mercurial/match.py --- a/mercurial/match.py Thu Nov 22 17:25:49 2018 +0100 +++ b/mercurial/match.py Thu Nov 22 21:02:02 2018 +0100 @@ -1185,6 +1185,7 @@ return regex, lambda f: any(mf(f) for mf in matchfuncs) MAX_RE_SIZE = 20000 +_BASE_SIZE = len('(?:)') - 1 def _joinregexes(regexps): """gather multiple regular expressions into a single one""" @@ -1203,20 +1204,31 @@ OverflowError """ try: - regex = _joinregexes([_regex(k, p, globsuffix) - for (k, p, s) in kindpats]) - if len(regex) <= MAX_RE_SIZE: - return regex, _rematcher(regex) - # We're using a Python with a tiny regex engine and we - # made it explode, so we'll divide the pattern list in two - # until it works - l = len(kindpats) - if l < 2: - # TODO: raise error.Abort here - raise OverflowError - regexa, a = _buildregexmatch(kindpats[:l//2], globsuffix) - regexb, b = _buildregexmatch(kindpats[l//2:], globsuffix) - return regex, lambda s: a(s) or b(s) + allgroups = [] + regexps = [_regex(k, p, globsuffix) for (k, p, s) in kindpats] + fullregexp = _joinregexes(regexps) + + startidx = 0 + groupsize = _BASE_SIZE + for idx, r in enumerate(regexps): + piecesize = len(r) + if (piecesize + 4) > MAX_RE_SIZE: + raise OverflowError + elif (groupsize + 1 + piecesize) > MAX_RE_SIZE: + group = regexps[startidx:idx] + allgroups.append(_joinregexes(group)) + startidx = idx + groupsize = _BASE_SIZE + groupsize += piecesize + 1 + + if startidx == 0: + func = _rematcher(fullregexp) + else: + group = regexps[startidx:] + allgroups.append(_joinregexes(group)) + allmatchers = [_rematcher(g) for g in allgroups] + func = lambda s: any(m(s) for m in allmatchers) + return fullregexp, func except re.error: for k, p, s in kindpats: try:
