evaluator. This was important because the NixOS expressions started to hit 2 MB default stack size on Linux. GCC is really dumb about stack space: it just adds up all the local variables and temporaries of every scope into one huge stack frame. This is really bad for deeply recursive functions. For instance, every `throw Error(format("error message"))' causes a format object of a few hundred bytes to be allocated on the stack. As a result, every recursive call to evalExpr2() consumed 4680 bytes. By splitting evalExpr2() and by moving the exception-throwing code out of the main functions, evalExpr2() now only consumes 40 bytes. Similar for evalExpr(). |
