This nice optimization was discussed on emacs-devel here
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2022-10/msg02174.html

The thread is 3 months old at this point and nobody still picked that
change up. I mentioned in the thread that I'm going to send the patch a
day ago (it won't show up in the web-interface though, because
apparently it's unable to show a thread from more than a single month),
and now in absence of any opposition here's the patch.

Originally discovered by Tyler Dodge in his article "Significant Garbage
Collection Improvement For Emacs".

While testing this change on Archlinux system with Intel i5-7200U CPU,
average time of garbage collection gets reduced by ≈25%. While
monitoring PSS of emacs with and without customizations loaded before
and after the patch, no statistically significant differences were
discovered. So overall, this change is a win.

Idk if it's a feature (bugtracker is an odd way of managing the patches in
general, so who knows), but for the safe case I'll mention that debbugs created
for the cover-letter email a separate page bug#61490

You should never change the Subject of a bug report, unless you want a
new bug created by the tracker.

Thank you. But, how one sends a patch series then?

FTR, I vaguely remember this problem has been discussed, probably on the mailing list. I recall someone said this shouldn't happen while sending a series with `git-send-email`, then someone (me or not) mentioned that with debuggs `git-send-email` exactly result like this; and after that I don't remember anything. It probably has been discussed as part of the thread about git forges, so it's possible the discussion just moved on then.

You send your cover letter to bug-gnu-emacs, which creates a bug
<bugnumber>. You then send the rest of the series to
<bugnumber>@debbugs.gnu.org (for extra credit, you put the bug number
in the commit message before doing this).

But this won't work, because every patch has a different title. So if debbugs
creates a new report per title, this means the problem will still persist.

Oh, sorry, I'm being stupid. Right, there's no report will be created because I send the series to the existing report. Sorry.

Alternatively, send all of the patches in a single email message as
attachments, then you don't need to wait for the bug tracker to
allocate a number.  Whether this is convenient enough for you depends
on your workflows vis-a-vis Git and "git format-patch", and also what
is your MUA and how it is configured.

See e.g. bug#48592 for an example of Robert's procedure (modulo amending
the commit messages with the bug number):

https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=48592
https://yhetil.org/emacs-bugs/20210522202519.32549-1-jonas@bernoul.li/

GUIX documents this in more detail:

https://guix.gnu.org/manual/en/html_node/Sending-a-Patch-Series.html#Multiple-Patches-1

IIUC we have bug#15361 open to make debbugs understand this kind of
submission without this workaround.

Thanks for proposing a useful optimization.

For the Emacs sources, including the commit messagss, please stick to
ASCII.  Emacs itself supports UTF-8, but not all terminals can display
all of Unicode.  In particular, Linux ttys can't display those two
diamonds.

Originally discovered by Tyler Dodge in his article "Significant Garbage
Collection Improvement For Emacs".

While testing this change on Archlinux system with Intel i5-7200U CPU,
average time of garbage collection gets reduced by ≈25%. Other users
report improvements up to 50%. While monitoring PSS of emacs with and
without customizations loaded before and after the patch, no
statistically significant differences were discovered. So overall, this
change is a win.

I havenʼt tested it yet, but it looks reasonable.

Procedural nit: if you put the bug number in the commit message rather
than the Subject, then 'git am' will strip the [PATCH v2] prefix for
us.

I am not sure I understood. I did not put the bug number in the subject at all,
it is probably done by debbugs. E.g. if you look at this v2 patch in a browser
https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=61490#20 the "Subject" line
displayed there does not contain a bug number.

I can add a bug number to the body the next time, but I'm not sure it would make
debbugs stop adding the prefix.

Which kind of makes sense btw, because debbugs is a bugtracker, I don't think
its developers supposed that it will be used as a replacement to a mailing list
for patch submissions. To track patches the old-fashioned way people usually
combine a mailing list with `patchwork` interface. Linux-kernel are doing that
for a long time. Freedesktop were doing that too. These days projects are
typically just using git forges.

Youʼre right, this was because I was reading the report via
debbugs-gnus, which adds the prefix. Sorry about that, although this
is one reason why attaching patches is sometimes better.

It was debbugs-gnus, not debbugs, so putting it in the body is fine.

You're talking about a different mode of use (with fbterm), not the
mode that I use.

So, it's been a week since version 2 was posted and 10-11 days since I started
using the change locally. Everything has been nice and dandy, and in absence of
further comments, I wonder if somebody with write permissions could merge this
patch?

P.S.: since there's a duplicate issues (one for the cover letter of the patch
and another for the patch itself, I decided to add the second issue to CC).

Iʼve had no issues with it. Eli? Does this require 'Copyright-paperwork-exempt: yes'?

We can close 61489 or merge it with 61490. Probably the latter is best.

No, I have a copyright assignment with GNU for Emacs, it's just that I don't write permissions :)

OK. I canʼt find any commits in your name using 'hi-angel@yandex.ru>'
as the email address, is it under a different one?

Well, the "Hi-Angel" is my old nickname, so I typically upcase it, including
inside the email address. So my email inside git config is "email =
Hi-Angel@yandex.ru", and similarly to find my commits with `git-log` you gotta
use a:

	git log --author="Hi-Angel@yandex.ru"

TIL that I havenʼt turned on enough case-insensitivity in my git

Sorry, you are right.  Ignore my previous message where I said the
Copyright-paperwork-exempt thingy is necessary.

There was no opposition in any of the answers, so I presume it is ready…?

Note: this change breaks the unexec build, see bug#61960.

Oh, I see, thanks! I'll try to build Emacs with sanitizer, it's usually pretty good at that kind of bugs. Will see if there's anything obvious

FTR: it might take longer than I expected, because for unknown reason Emacs built with sanitizer isn't built with sanitizer. Yeah, lol. I passed the `-fsanitize=address,undefined` to CFLAGS, and `./configure …` output even confirmed it registered them. However, after everything was built, it does not make use of sanitizer.

I also realised I forgot to pass `-lasan` to LDFLAGS, so the build should've failed at link-stage. Apparently there are some bugs in the build system related to passing cflags through to the actual compiler.

Are you saying that the advice in etc/DEBUG how to set this up and how
to run the resulting Emacs is inaccurate or incorrect or outdated?
