Explain why inlining default ToString impl#74852

tesuji · 2020-07-28T00:54:25Z

Trying to remove inline attribute from default ToString impl causes regression.
Perf result at #74852 (comment).

tesuji · 2020-07-28T01:01:16Z

Regress in wall-time of debug and check build?

tesuji · 2020-07-28T02:26:19Z

Can I have a perf run, @Mark-Simulacrum ?

Finished benchmarking try commit (afd3e8ab7e3e1c925fc3893aab125617395808c8): comparison url.

Benchmarking this pull request likely means that it is perf-sensitive, so we're automatically marking it as not fit for rolling up. Please note that if the perf results are neutral, you should likely undo the rollup=never given below by specifying rollup- to bors.

Importantly, though, if the results of this run are non-neutral do not roll this PR up -- it will mask other regressions or improvements in the roll up.

@bors rollup=never

tesuji · 2020-07-28T09:07:13Z

The number is ... different than local perf.
Probably because:

I used stage1 compiler
I used incremental build locally.
The machine I used to perf is different:
- Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2660 0 @ 2.20GHz
- 2 sockets, 16 cores, 32 threads
- RAM: 144862 MB
- HDD Drive.

I will try to perf with non-incremental and compare.

tesuji · 2020-07-28T13:47:20Z

I tried 2 approaches with master commit 1f5d69d:

Remove inline attribute from default impl ToString for T: fmt::Display + ?Sized.
Remove all inline attributes from all impl ToString in library/alloc/src/string.rs.

The locally perf result is here: results.db.tar.gz.
Copy it to locally checkout of https://github.com/rust-lang/rustc-perf and run cargo build --release --bin=site ./result.db
to view the result.
There are 3 IDs: master, default-tostring-rm-inline, rm-inline-all.

The perf result is complicated, most are regressions. But I think it is better to be decided by perf experts.

In the case removing inline attribute is unaccepted, I would like to add a comment in the code to explain why.

nnethercote · 2020-07-28T22:27:29Z

I looked at the results, they are clearly regressions. I don't think comments are necessary, because it's not that surprising that marking a hot function as inline would improve performance, and doing the opposite would hurt performance. But if you really want to add comments I won't object.

tesuji · 2020-07-29T03:15:50Z

Updated PR description.

nnethercote · 2020-07-29T05:44:16Z

library/alloc/src/string.rs

s/guide line/guideline/

Is that really a guideline? I'm sure I've seen many generic functions marked with inline.

The guideline is documented here: https://forge.rust-lang.org/libs/maintaining-std.html#is-that-inline-right .
Or I may infer it wrong.

nnethercote · 2020-07-29T05:44:40Z

r=me once the typo is fixed.
