To `QuerySystem`, next to `query_vtables`. It's a better spot for it.

Overall result: ❌ regressions - please read:

Benchmarking means the PR may be perf-sensitive. It's automatically marked not fit for rolling up. Overriding is possible but disadvised: it risks changing compiler perf.

Next, please: If you can, justify the regressions found in this try perf run in writing along with @rustbot label: +perf-regression-triaged. If not, fix the regressions and do another perf run. Neutral or positive results will clear the label automatically.

Gee whiz, doing tcx.sess.prof instead of tcx.prof is a measurable slowdown. I'll take out that change.

Zalathar is not on the review rotation at the moment.
They may take a while to respond.

nnethercote · 2026-08-19T08:39:31Z

LLM disclosure: the suggestions for these changes came from an LLM's analysis. I made all the code and text changes myself.

Zalathar · 2026-08-19T10:54:10Z

Yeah, these all look good.

r=me with or without my suggested comment.

This commit moves the eight cache fields in `GlobalCtxt` into a single type, just to provide some logical grouping and to reduce the number of fields within `GlobalCtxt`.

It makes sense next to `QuerySystem::side_effects`, and this enables the use of `DepNodeIndex` for the values instead of the type-erased `u32`.
