When the inline cache is written, the iv table will contain an entry for
the instance variable. If we get an inline cache hit, then we know the
iv table must contain a value for the index written to the inline cache.
If the index in the inline cache is larger than the list on the object,
but *smaller* than the iv index table on the class, then we can just
eagerly allocate the iv list to be the same size as the iv index table.
This avoids duplicate work of checking frozen as well as looking up the
index for the particular instance variable name.
Execute gem install benchmark_driver and run a command like:
# Run a benchmark script with the ruby in the $PATH
benchmark-driver benchmark/app_fib.rb
# Run benchmark scripts with multiple Ruby executables or options
benchmark-driver benchmark/*.rb -e /path/to/ruby -e '/path/to/ruby --jit'# Or compare Ruby versions managed by rbenv
benchmark-driver benchmark/*.rb --rbenv '2.5.1;2.6.0-preview2 --jit'# You can collect many metrics in many ways
benchmark-driver benchmark/*.rb --runner memory --output markdown
# Some are defined with YAML for complex setup or accurate measurement
benchmark-driver benchmark/*.yml

Usage: benchmark-driver [options] RUBY|YAML...
-r, --runner TYPE Specify runner type: ips, time, memory, once (default: ips)
-o, --output TYPE Specify output type: compare, simple, markdown, record (default: compare)
-e, --executables EXECS Ruby executables (e1::path1 arg1; e2::path2 arg2;...)
--rbenv VERSIONS Ruby executables in rbenv (x.x.x arg1;y.y.y arg2;...)
--repeat-count NUM Try benchmark NUM times and use the fastest result or the worst memory usage
--repeat-result TYPE Yield "best", "average" or "worst" result with --repeat-count (default: best)
--bundler Install and use gems specified in Gemfile
--filter REGEXP Filter out benchmarks with given regexp
--run-duration SECONDS Warmup estimates loop_count to run for this duration (default: 3)
-v, --verbose Verbose mode. Multiple -v options increase visilibity (max: 2)
make benchmark
Using make benchmark, make update-benchmark-driver automatically downloads
the supported version of benchmark_driver, and it runs benchmarks with the downloaded
benchmark_driver.
# Run all benchmarks with the ruby in the $PATH and the built ruby
make benchmark
# Or compare with specific ruby binary
make benchmark COMPARE_RUBY="/path/to/ruby --jit"# Run vm benchmarks
make benchmark ITEM=vm
