Recently, I notice messages like this when doing profile operations:

[...]

The file in question is a symlink:

This find-files (used in the manual-database hook) message is caused by the
fact the gimp-console-2.8.1.gz file doesn`t exist (IOW, the gimp-console.1
symlink is broken). It would be nice to investigate is this Gimp problem
comes from upstream or as a result of our build process.

FWIR it is CPU bound, so your mileage will vary; in my case on an old
low-power laptop it can take a few seconds for ~65 packages.
I wonder why the odd package count mismatch (23 vs 22) ? I don't recall
observing this while testing (maybe it only happens when using the -m
option) ?

It is taking more like 50 seconds on my 3.4 Ghz server for 33 packages.

That's my fault. I cut and pasted from two different runs. SORRY! ;-)

No, I get the same effect w/ 'guix package -r foo.

OK! No problem; thanks for clarifying it!

50 seconds for 33 packages on such a powerful machine seems abnormal,
unless you have a specific package(s) which would install an unusually
large amount of manual pages (which would take more time to be indexed).

Ludovic had a way to time the generation of the manual-database
derivation; he was using something like [0]:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
time guix build --check /gnu/store/rkri628apz2a2i2jvav11ylv2736fvv3-manual-database.drv
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Notice that you need the derivation (.drv) of manual-database rather
than the store item ending by manual-database. Unfortunately I'm not
aware of how we can easily find the derivation of the corresponding
manual-database store item used by the profile (as can be found by: guix
gc -R $(realpath $HOME/.guix-profile) | grep manual-database).

Maybe Ludovic can enlight us?

If you are interested in digging into this further, you could enable
debug output for the man-db command used by manual-database profile hook
defined in (guix profiles) by replacing the "--quiet" option by
--debug. This way you'd see everything man-db might be complaining about.

You can see those .drv names when building the profile.  So you just
need to copy/paste them and run “guix build --check” above.

If you have the profile but not its .drv, you can find out what the .drv
for that profile was but there’s no command-line interface for that (you
have to use ‘valid-derivers’ from (guix store).)

HTH,
Ludo’.

Thanks Ludovic; that was helpful.

I did a small test and it takes about 40 s on my system, with 60
packages or so in my profile. I removed the "--quiet" flag of mandb in
the profile hook (guix profile) to see the output of mandb while it was
indexing the manual pages:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---

As you can see, mandb stumbled more than once with some of our packages'
manpages. Those failures are probably attributable to bad packages
manual pages. For example, the gcc manual pages are known to be broken
for example. [0]

By looking at the output as it was generated, it seemed as if those
failures caused mandb to take more time.

Another reason could be that mandb is just inefficient. There's an old
bug about mandb's use of processes being less than optimal ("strace
indicates that mandb is forking on the order of four processes per
page") [1]. It seems that Colin Watson had a good idea of how to improve
things but didn't get around to implementing it yet.

Hi Maxim and Ludo’,

I hacked profiles.scm (please see git diff below) so that start and end
seconds appear in the message like this:

creating manual page database for 23 packages...1494773268...1494773275 DONE

I tested a few cases and man-db typically takes only a few seconds.  It
only _appears_ to take a long time because other processing occurs after
the man-db command.

So, I suggest either ...

1) delete the message altogether, or
2) close the message with a "DONE"

SORRY for the run-around. In my defense, when I first raised the
question I did suggest the idea of closing the message:

Not good!

That would be surprising no?

Yeah, I noticed that it was forking a lot by looking at the process
graph in gkrellm.  That’s not good.

The database creation is probably not rocket science, so I wonder if we
could implement it more efficiently in Guile using the appropriate gdbm
or bdb bindings.  Certainly we could avoid the forks.

Alternately we optimize mandb itself directly and contribute it
upstream, which would be benefit everyone but might be trickier.

Thoughts?

You're right. The output just tricked me into thinking that. But in the
end it's just the sheer numbers of manpages in my profile which takes
time to get indexed (I have almost 4000). The package which the biggest
collection that I know of is 'libx11', which comes with more than 2000
packages itself!

It can be used as a good test for the manual database profile hook:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
guix environment --ad-hoc libx11

It'd be nice as a first to check with Colin if he still thinks fixing it
in mandb would be easy. Colin pointed to improving the pipeline with
coroutines or generators [0], which would potentially go in
"libpipeline".

If this stuff is not easy to implement there, then yes, an
implementation in Guile with bindings to gdbm (which is what we are
using currently) would make sense since Guile already comes which
coroutines and generators, IIUC.
