Subject: [PATCH v3 1/6] test-lib: introduce test_commit_bulk
Date: Fri, 19 Jul 2019 17:56:01 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190719215601.GA32188@sigill.intra.peff.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190719215417.GA31841@sigill.intra.peff.net>

Some tests need to create a string of commits. Doing this with
test_commit is very heavy-weight, as it needs at least one process per
commit (and in fact, uses several).

For bulk creation, we can do much better by using fast-import, but it's
often a pain to generate the input. Let's provide a helper to do so.

We'll use t5310 as a guinea pig, as it has three 10-commit loops. Here
are hyperfine results before and after:

  [before]
  Benchmark #1: ./t5310-pack-bitmaps.sh --root=/var/ram/git-tests
    Time (mean ± σ):      2.846 s ±  0.305 s    [User: 3.042 s, System: 0.919 s]
    Range (min … max):    2.250 s …  3.210 s    10 runs

  [after]
  Benchmark #1: ./t5310-pack-bitmaps.sh --root=/var/ram/git-tests
    Time (mean ± σ):      2.210 s ±  0.174 s    [User: 2.570 s, System: 0.604 s]
    Range (min … max):    1.999 s …  2.590 s    10 runs

So we're over 20% faster, while making the callers slightly shorter. We
added a lot more lines in test-lib-function.sh, of course, and the
helper is way more featureful than we need here. But my hope is that it
will be flexible enough to use in more places.
