Jean Boussier 9e9f1d9301 Precompute embedded string literals hash code
With embedded strings we often have some space left in the slot, which
we can use to store the string Hash code.

It's probably only worth it for string literals, as they are the ones
likely to be used as hash keys.

We chose to store the Hash code right after the string terminator as to
make it easy/fast to compute, and not require one more union in RString.

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
make benchmark ITEM=vm_bigarray OPTS="-r peak"
