pack-objects: fix performance issues on packing large deltas Let's start with some background about oe_delta_size() and oe_set_delta_size(). If you already know, skip the next paragraph. These two are added in 0aca34e826 (pack-objects: shrink delta_size field in struct object_entry - 2018-04-14) to help reduce 'struct object_entry' size. The delta size field in this struct is reduced to only contain max 1MB. So if any new delta is produced and larger than 1MB, it's dropped because we can't really save such a large size anywhere. Fallback is provided in case existing packfiles already have large deltas, then we can retrieve it from the pack. While this should help small machines repacking large repos without large deltas (i.e. less memory pressure), dropping large deltas during the delta selection process could end up with worse pack files. And if existing packfiles already have >1MB delta and pack-objects is instructed to not reuse deltas, all of them will be dropped on the floor, and the resulting pack would be definitely bigger. There is also a regression in terms of CPU/IO if we have large on-disk deltas because fallback code needs to parse the pack every time the delta size is needed and just access to the mmap'd pack data is enough for extra page faults when memory is under pressure. Both of these issues were reported on the mailing list. Here's some numbers for comparison. Version Pack (MB) MaxRSS(kB) Time (s) ------- --------- ---------- -------- 2.17.0 5498 43513628 2494.85 2.18.0 10531 40449596 4168.94 This patch provides a better fallback that is - cheaper in terms of cpu and io because we won't have to read existing pack files as much - better in terms of pack size because the pack heuristics is back to 2.17.0 time, we do not drop large deltas at all If we encounter any delta (on-disk or created during try_delta phase) that is larger than the 1MB limit, we stop using delta_size_ field for this because it can't contain such size anyway. A new array of delta size is dynamically allocated and can hold all the deltas that 2.17.0 can. This array only contains delta sizes that delta_size_ can't contain. With this, we do not have to drop deltas in try_delta() anymore. Of course the downside is we use slightly more memory, even compared to 2.17.0. But since this is considered an uncommon case, a bit more memory consumption should not be a problem. Delta size limit is also raised from 1MB to 16MB to better cover common case and avoid that extra memory consumption (99.999% deltas in this reported repo are under 12MB; Jeff noted binary artifacts topped out at about 3MB in some other private repos). Other fields are shuffled around to keep this struct packed tight. We don't use more memory in common case even with this limit update. A note about thread synchronization. Since this code can be run in parallel during delta searching phase, we need a mutex. The realloc part in packlist_alloc() is not protected because it only happens during the object counting phase, which is always single-threaded. Access to e->delta_size_ (and by extension pack->delta_size[e - pack->objects]) is unprotected as before, the thread scheduler in pack-objects must make sure "e" is never updated by two different threads. The area under the new lock is as small as possible, avoiding locking at all in common case, since lock contention with high thread count could be expensive (most blobs are small enough that delta compute time is short and we end up taking the lock very often). The previous attempt to always hold a lock in oe_delta_size() and oe_set_delta_size() increases execution time by 33% when repacking linux.git with with 40 threads.

pack-objects: reuse on-disk deltas for thin "have" objects When we serve a fetch, we pass the "wants" and "haves" from the fetch negotiation to pack-objects. That tells us not only which objects we need to send, but we also use the boundary commits as "preferred bases": their trees and blobs are candidates for delta bases, both for reusing on-disk deltas and for finding new ones. However, this misses some opportunities. Modulo some special cases like shallow or partial clones, we know that every object reachable from the "haves" could be a preferred base. We don't use all of them for two reasons: 1. It's expensive to traverse the whole history and enumerate all of the objects the other side has. 2. The delta search is expensive, so we want to keep the number of candidate bases sane. The boundary commits are the most likely to work. When we have reachability bitmaps, though, reason 1 no longer applies. We can efficiently compute the set of reachable objects on the other side (and in fact already did so as part of the bitmap set-difference to get the list of interesting objects). And using this set conveniently covers the shallow and partial cases, since we have to disable the use of bitmaps for those anyway. The second reason argues against using these bases in the search for new deltas. But there's one case where we can use this information for free: when we have an existing on-disk delta that we're considering reusing, we can do so if we know the other side has the base object. This in fact saves time during the delta search, because it's one less delta we have to compute. And that's exactly what this patch does: when we're considering whether to reuse an on-disk delta, if bitmaps tell us the other side has the object (and we're making a thin-pack), then we reuse it.

We do spend more CPU time on the client side, because it has to reconstruct more deltas. But that's the right tradeoff to make, since clients tend to outnumber servers. It just means the thin pack mechanism is doing its job. From the user's perspective, the end-to-end time of the operation will generally be faster. E.g., in the 128-day case, we saved 15s on the server at a cost of 16s on the client. Since the resulting pack is 34MB smaller, this is a net win if the network speed is less than 270Mbit/s. And that's actually the worst case. The 64-day case saves just over 11s at a cost of just under 11s. So it's a slight win at any network speed, and the 40MB saved is pure bonus. That trend continues for the smaller fetches. The implementation itself is mostly straightforward, with the new logic going into check_object(). But there are two tricky bits. The first is that check_object() needs access to the relevant information (the thin flag and bitmap result). We can do this by pushing these into program-lifetime globals. The second is that the rest of the code assumes that any reused delta will point to another "struct object_entry" as its base. But of course the case we are interested in here is the one where don't have such an entry! I looked at a number of options that didn't quite work: - we could use a flag to signal a reused delta, but it's not a single bit. We have to actually store the oid of the base, which is normally done by pointing to the existing object_entry. And we'd have to modify all the code which looks at deltas. - we could add the reused bases to the end of the existing object_entry array. While this does create some extra work as later stages consider the extra entries, it's actually not too bad (we're not sending them, so they don't cost much in the delta search, and at most we'd have 2*N of them). But there's a more subtle problem. Adding to the existing array means we might need to grow it with realloc, which could move the earlier entries around. While many of the references to other entries are done by integer index, some (including ones on the stack) use pointers, which would become invalidated. This isn't insurmountable, but it would require quite a bit of refactoring (and it's hard to know that you've got it all, since it may work _most_ of the time and then fail subtly based on memory allocation patterns). - we could allocate a new one-off entry for the base. In fact, this is what an earlier version of this patch did. However, since the refactoring brought in by ad635e82d6 (Merge branch 'nd/pack-objects-pack-struct', 2018-05-23), the delta_idx code requires that both entries be in the main packing list. So taking all of those options into account, what I ended up with is a separate list of "external bases" that are not part of the main packing list. Each delta entry that points to an external base has a single-bit flag to do so; we have a little breathing room in the bitfield section of object_entry. This lets us limit the change primarily to the oe_delta() and oe_set_delta_ext() functions. And as a bonus, most of the rest of the code does not consider these dummy entries at all, saving both runtime CPU and code complexity.
