Hi Guix!

This is the second patch I created in my exploration of our Python
package. Here, I noticed that our Python was very slow compared to
other distros and I tried to find which options they used. I found some
hints from Fedora. In this patch, I enable a few options and add a C/LD
flag to make python run faster.

I also attached a report of timing running the benchmark from
pyperformance on my Fedora machine. For comparison, I have also added
the results for Fedora's python3, which is somewhere in between.

I noticed that this increases the size of the python package by 20MB,
which is due entirely to --with-lto option, which also accounts for
half of the speedup. Overall, this python is almost twice as fast on
some benchmarks, and always faster on all of them. It's about 1.5 times
faster on average.

Strangely, the python package from Alpine is twice as small as this
package, and they use the --with-lto option. I wonder how they achieve
that.

Note that I modified python-2, as its flags are inherited by python-3
(and also the bootstrap python from commencement.scm).

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] gnu: python: Enable optimizations.

As a result, python execution time of scripts is decreased by 6 to 40%.

gnu/packages/python (python-2.7)[arguments]: Add configure and make flags to
optimize the resulting python.

LGTM!  Great that you found about these options.

I wonder what can be done to reduce the package size.  On
‘core-updates’, we’re already stripping ELF binaries a bit more than on
‘master’.

What does ‘size …/bin/python’ say?  Could it be there’s GIMPLE left in
the executable or in libpython.so as a result of using -flto?

Thanks,
Ludo’.

Sorry for the late reply, I didn't see your message, and never received
the pings I see on issues.guix.gnu.org.

Here is the output of size on bin/python:

text	   data	    bss	    dec   hex	filename
2072	    704	      8   2784	    ae0
   /gnu/store/bcggflp7zszpazgk8qa4sr0kmp5a67pg-python-minimal-3.9.5/bin/python3

Same, for lib/libpython3.so:

text	   data	    bss	    dec hex filename
 1154	    576	      8	   1738 6ca
/gnu/store/bcggflp7zszpazgk8qa4sr0kmp5a67pg-python-minimal-3.9.5/lib/libpython3.so

Same for lib/libpython3.9.so.1.0:

text	   data	    bss	    dec   hex	filename
3614304	 254928	 139896	4009128	 3d2ca8
/gnu/store/bcggflp7zszpazgk8qa4sr0kmp5a67pg-python-minimal-3.9.5/lib/libpython3.9.so.1.0

But I noticed another file gained a lot of weight:
lib/python3.9/config-3.9-x86_64-linux-gnu/libpython3.9.a weighs 39MB,
whereas on master (for 3.8.2) it weighs 6MB. Here is what size has to
say:

   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex
    298	      0	     52	    350	    15e
   2642	      0	      0	   2642	    a52

I had to remove the file name it comes from, because of width issue
in email, but I don't really understand what size does, so I don't know
if that's relevant or not. Do we need to keep that static library
around?

Yeah, the .o files in there likely contain serialized GIMPLE, as a
result of compiling with ‘-flto’.

How about removing *.a altogether in a separate patch?  Or moving it to
a “static” output?  This would be consistent with what’s done in other
packages.

Thanks,

Right, this is a good idea. I wrote the attached patches to: enable
optimizations, prevent building and installing the static library and
to install idle to a separate output, as it is not required in general.

With the patch from https://issues.guix.gnu.org/47214, python 3.9 on
coreupdates is ~1.7x faster than python 3.8 on master, and is ~25MB
smaller than 3.8 on master (I haven't measured the speedup for python2,
and it is ~10MB smaller with these changes than on master).

Subject: [PATCH 2/4] gnu: python: Enable optimizations.

As a result, python execution time of scripts is decreased by 6 to 40%.

Subject: [PATCH 3/4] gnu: python: Do not install static libraries.

This is something Fedora already does since 2010, so it should be safe,
and saves a lot of space.

* gnu/packages/patches/python-2.7-no-static-lib.patch: New file.
* gnu/packages/patches/python-3-no-static-lib.patch: New file.
* gnu/local.mk (dist_patch_DATA): Add them.
* gnu/packages/python.scm (python-2.7, python-3): Use them.

Subject: [PATCH 4/4] gnu: python: Move idle to a separate output.

idle is a programming environment that is not useful for building
packages, but it is still useful for end users. This saves 5MB in the
default output.

* gnu/packages/python.scm (python-2.7)[outputs]: Add `idle'.
[arguments]: Move idle files in the new output.
(wrap-python): Do not wrap idle since it is in a different output.

Could you add a comment for ‘-fno-semantic-interposition’?  Also, please
make sure that setting CFLAGS does not override useful defaults (for
Autoconf-based build systems, CFLAGS defaults to ‘-O2 -g’ and overriding
it means you lost both -O2 and -g; if we lose ‘-g’, ‘--with-debug-info’
won’t have any effect).
