When an inline cache misses, it is very likely that the stale shape_id and the current instance shape_id have a close common ancestor. For example if the instance variable is sometimes frozen sometimes not, one of the two shape will be the direct parent of the other. Another pattern that commonly cause IC misses is "memoization", in such case the object will have a "base common shape" and then a number of close descendants. In addition, when we find a common ancestor, we store it in the inline cache instead of the current shape. This help prevent the cache from flip-flopping, ensuring the next lookup will be marginally faster and more generally avoid writing in memory too much. However, now that shapes have an ancestors index, we only check for a few ancestors before falling back to use the index. So overall this change speeds up what is assumed to be the more common case, but makes what is assumed to be the less common case a bit slower. ``` compare-ruby: ruby 3.3.0dev (2023-10-26T05:30:17Z master 701ca070b4) [arm64-darwin22] built-ruby: ruby 3.3.0dev (2023-10-26T09:25:09Z shapes_double_sear.. a723a85235) [arm64-darwin22] warming up...... | |compare-ruby|built-ruby| |:------------------------------------|-----------:|---------:| |vm_ivar_stable_shape | 11.672M| 11.679M| | | -| 1.00x| |vm_ivar_memoize_unstable_shape | 7.551M| 10.506M| | | -| 1.39x| |vm_ivar_memoize_unstable_shape_miss | 11.591M| 11.624M| | | -| 1.00x| |vm_ivar_unstable_undef | 9.037M| 7.981M| | | 1.13x| -| |vm_ivar_divergent_shape | 8.034M| 6.657M| | | 1.21x| -| |vm_ivar_divergent_shape_imbalanced | 10.471M| 9.231M| | | 1.13x| -| ``` Co-Authored-By: John Hawthorn <john@hawthorn.email>
ruby/benchmark
This directory has benchmark definitions to be run with benchmark_driver.gem.
Normal usage
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
See also:
Usage: benchmark-driver [options] RUBY|YAML...
-r, --runner TYPE Specify runner type: ips, time, memory, once, block (default: ips)
-o, --output TYPE Specify output type: compare, simple, markdown, record, all (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)
--alternate Alternate executables instead of running the same executable in a row with --repeat-count
--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)
--timeout SECONDS Timeout ruby command execution with timeout(1)
-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
# Run some limited benchmarks in ITEM-matched files
make benchmark ITEM=vm OPTS=--filter=block
# You can specify the benchmark by an exact filename instead of using the default argument:
# ARGS = $$(find $(srcdir)/benchmark -maxdepth 1 -name '*$(ITEM)*.yml' -o -name '*$(ITEM)*.rb')
make benchmark ARGS=benchmark/erb_render.yml
# You can specify any option via $OPTS
make benchmark OPTS="--help"
# With `make benchmark`, some special runner plugins are available:
# -r peak, -r size, -r total, -r utime, -r stime, -r cutime, -r cstime
