The Tramp tests are the slowest tests in Emacs's test suite, even when
they aren't set up to access a remote machine.

After a little investigation I think the cause of the slowness is
excessive memory allocation. I modified ert-run-tests to print
memory statistics after each test and found that tramp-tests.el, which
takes 100 seconds to run on my machine, is spending 39 seconds doing
garbage collection, and by the end of the test run has allocated and
freed 27 million strings.

Here is a log file with memory statistics:

Hi Gemini,

Tramp tests are expensive, by design. For example, at the beginning of
every single test the Tramp connection is cleared, including cache
cleanup. 55 tests, this takes time to reestablish the
connection. Furthermore, for all remote process related tests there are
timeouts in order to receive proper response.

Therefore, in the normal "make check" run of Emacs, some of Tramp tests
are skipped.

If you start "make -C test tramp-tests", all Tramp tests run, which
lasts 3:17 min on my laptop (Lenovo T500, 7 years old). You could
restrict this to the non-expensive tests by calling "make
SELECTOR='$(SELECTOR_DEFAULT)' -C test tramp-tests". This reduces the
runtime to 34 sec on my laptop. See test/README for explanation.

For normal use, the non-expensive Tramp tests are sufficient.

Thanks for this. My experience with Tramp is, that most of the time is
spent in process communication.

Anyway, I'll see, whether I could optimize Tramp somehow, but
functionality comes first.

Best regards, Michael.

Was there a reason to defmacro instead of defun here?  If it's
performance, perhaps defsubst could work instead?

(also, the let-binding seems redundant)

Here's a new patch which uses defun and doesn't have the let binding.
Performance is not noticably different.

Looks good to me, thanks a lot! You could apply this to master.

`tramp-prefix-method-regexp-alist' might be renamed to
`tramp-method-regexp-alist'.

And `tramp-*-regexp-alist' might be derived from `tramp-*-format-alist',
as the docstring says. Otherwise, you would use the same string literals
twice, which is always good for errors during maintenance. Something like

(defconst tramp-prefix-regexp-alist
  (mapcar (lambda (x) (cons (car x) (concat "^" (regexp-quote (cdr x)))))
          tramp-prefix-format-alist)
  "Alist of regexps matching the beginnings of Tramp file names.
Keyed by Tramp syntax. Derived from `tramp-prefix-format-alist'.")

Best regards, Michael.

Construct Tramp syntax strings and regular expressions once instead
of every time they are used, and store them in alists keyed by Tramp
syntax.
