pennae 61a9d16d5c don't strdup tokens in the lexer
every stringy token the lexer returns is turned into a Symbol and not
used further, so we don't have to strdup. using a string_view is
sufficient, but due to limitations of the current parser we have to use
a POD type that holds the same information.

gives ~2% on system build, 6% on search, 8% on parsing alone

pennae 6401e443a4 move strings in derivationStrict
the temporary will be discarded anyway, so we can move out of it and save many
small allocations and copies.

pennae ef45787aae avoid string copies in attrNames sort comparison
symbols can also be cast to string_view, which compares the same but doesn't
require a copy of both symbol names on every comparison.

pennae 1bebb1095a cache more often-used symbols for primops
there's a few symbols in primops we can create once and pick them out of
EvalState afterwards instead of creating them every time we need them. this
gives almost 1% speedup to an uncached nix search.
2022-01-13 13:58:33 +01:00
pennae 44c92a1667 use more string_view in utils
there's a couple places that can be easily converted from using strings to using
string_views instead. gives a slight (~1%) boost to system eval.

pennae 73fcc40fa4 use boost::lexical_cast for string2*
this avoids one copy from `s` into `str`, and possibly another copy needed to
construct `s` at the call site. lexical_cast is also more efficient in general.

pennae 5838354d34 optimize ExprConcatStrings::eval
constructing an ostringstream for non-string concats (like integer addition) is
a small constant cost that we can avoid. for string concats we can keep all the
string temporaries we get from coerceToString and concatenate them in one go,
which saves a lot of intermediate temporaries and copies in ostringstream. we
can also avoid copying the concatenated string again by directly allocating it
in GC memory and moving ownership of the concatenated string into the target
value.

saves about 2% on system eval.

Guillaume Maudoux e9a4abdb5d Make --repair-path also repair corrupt optimised links
There already existed a smoke test for the link content length,
but it appears that there exists some corruptions pernicious enough
to replace the file content with zeros, and keeping the same length.

--repair-path now goes as far as checking the content of the link,
making it true to its name and actually repairing the path for such
coruption cases.

pennae 26a8b220eb avoid ostream sentries per json string character
we don't have to create an ostream sentry object for every character of a JSON
string we write. format a bunch of characters and flush them to the stream all
at once instead.

this doesn't affect small numbers of string characters, but larger numbers of
total JSON string characters written gain a lot. at 1MB of total string written
we gain almost 30%, at 16MB it's almost a factor of 3x. large numbers of JSON
string characters do occur naturally in a nixos system evaluation to generate
documentation (though this is now somewhat mitigated by caching the largest part
of nixos option docs).

pennae 00c993f48b add zipAttrsWith primop
nixpkgs can save a good bit of eval memory with this primop. zipAttrsWith is
used quite a bit around nixpkgs (eg in the form of recursiveUpdate), but the
most costly application for this primop is in the module system. it improves
the implementation of zipAttrsWith from nixpkgs by not checking an attribute
multiple times if it occurs more than once in the input list, allocates less
values and set elements, and just avoids many a temporary object in general.

nixpkgs has a more generic version of this operation, zipAttrsWithNames, but
this version is only used once so isn't suitable for being the base of a new
primop. if it were to be used more we should add a second primop instead.
