this gives about 20% performance improvements on pure parsing. obviously it'll be less on full eval, but depending on how much parsing has to be done (eg whether nixpkgs haskell modules are included or not) it ranges anywhere from 4% to 10% in our tests. this has been tested with thousands of core hours of fuzz testing to ensure that the ASTs produced by the new parser are exactly the same as the ones produced by the old parser. error messages will change (sometimes a lot) and are currently not perfect, but we'd rather leave that open for improvement than having this work rot forever. |
