match: sort patterns before compiling them into a regex While investigating cripping performance for `hg cat` in some context, I discovered that, for large inputs, building a regex from out of order patterns result may result in a *much* slower regex and a much slower associated matcher's performance. So we are now sorting the patterns to help the regex engine. There is more to the story as we rely on regexp more than we should. See the next changeset for details. Benchmarks ========== In the following benchmark we are comparing the `hg cat` and `hg files` run time when matching against the full list of files in the repository. They are run: - without the rust extensions - with the standard python enfine (so without re2) sort vs non-sorted - Before this changeset (3f5137543773) --------------------------------------------------------- ###### hg files ############################################################### ### mercurial-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog sorted: 0.230092 seconds shuffled: 0.234235 seconds (+1.80%) ### pypy-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog sorted: 0.613567 seconds shuffled: 0.801880 seconds (+30.69%) ### mozilla-central-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog sorted: 62.474221 seconds shuffled: 1364.180218 seconds (+2083.59%) ### netbeans-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog sorted: 21.541828 seconds shuffled: 172.759857 seconds (+701.97%) ###### hg cat ################################################################# ### mercurial-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog sorted: 0.764407 seconds shuffled: 0.768924 seconds ### pypy-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog sorted: 2.065220 seconds shuffled: 2.276388 seconds (+10.22%) ### netbeans-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog sorted: 40.967983 seconds shuffled: 216.388709 seconds (+428.19%) ### mozilla-central-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog sorted: 105.228510 seconds shuffled: 1448.722784 seconds (+1276.74%) sort vs non-sorted - With this changeset ---------------------------------------- ###### hg files ############################################################### ### mercurial-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog all-list-pattern-sorted: 0.230069 all-list-pattern-shuffled: 0.231165 ### pypy-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog all-list-pattern-sorted: 0.616799 all-list-pattern-shuffled: 0.616393 ### netbeans-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog all-list-pattern-sorted: 21.586773 all-list-pattern-shuffled: 21.908197 ### mozilla-central-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog all-list-pattern-sorted: 61.279490 all-list-pattern-shuffled: 62.473549 ###### hg cat ################################################################# ### mercurial-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog sorted: 0.763883 seconds shuffled: 0.765848 seconds ### pypy-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog sorted: 2.070498 seconds shuffled: 2.069197 seconds ### netbeans-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog sorted: 41.392423 seconds shuffled: 41.648689 seconds ### mozilla-central-2018-08-01-zstd-sparse-revlog sorted: 103.315670 seconds shuffled: 104.369358 seconds
