Gather real-world feedback about 2.12.3 performance

[retronym]

Here are instructions to run a comparative benchmark of the performance of the 2.12.2 and 2.12.3-SNAPSHOT compilers over your project sources. We're interested in finding out real-world numbers to complement our automatically run benchmarks.

The instructions below assume sbt as your build tool. Users of other build tools can also benchmark their project, providing they first create an "args file" containing the command line to the compiler.

Create an sbt plugin to export the compiler command line

// ~/.sbt/0.13/plugins/ArgsFile.scala
package io.github.retronym

import sbt._
import Keys._

object SbtArgsFilePlugin extends AutoPlugin {
  override def trigger = allRequirements
  override def requires = sbt.plugins.JvmPlugin
  val argsFileContents = taskKey[String]("Contents of file suitable for `scalac @args.txt`")
  val argsFile = taskKey[Unit]("Write compiler command line into an args file suitable for `scalac @target/compile.args`")
  override lazy val projectSettings = List(Compile, Test).flatMap(c => inConfig(c)(Seq(
    argsFileContents := {
      val sourcesValue = sources.value
      val depdependencyClasspathValue = dependencyClasspath.value
      val cp = if (depdependencyClasspathValue.isEmpty) Nil else ("-classpath" :: depdependencyClasspathValue.map(_.data.toString).mkString(":") :: Nil)
      val result = (scalacOptions.value.toList ::: List("-d", classDirectory.value) ::: cp ::: sourcesValue.distinct.toList).mkString("\n")
      if (sourcesValue.isEmpty) "" else result
    },
    argsFile := {
      val f = target.value / (c.name + ".args")
      val contents = argsFileContents.value
      val log = streams.value.log
      if (!contents.isEmpty) {
        IO.write(f, contents)
        log.info("Wrote compiler comand line to: " + f.getAbsolutePath)
      }
    }
  )))
}

Export compiler command line

We'll use the akka-actor subproject of Akka to demonstrate.

% cd /code

Clone the compiler-benchmark project

% cd /code
% git clone https://github.com/scala/compiler-benchmark.git; cd compiler-benchmark

Configure a SBT resolver to access nightly builds

// ~/.sbt/0.13/resolver.sbt

resolvers ++= (
  if (scalaVersion.value.contains("-bin"))
     List("scala-integration" at "https://scala-ci.typesafe.com/artifactory/scala-integration/")
  else Nil
)

Quiesce your machine

• Close all other applications, check top to see that the machine is idle.
• (for best results) disable CPU frequency scaling with http://www.rugarciap.com/turbo-boost-switcher-for-os-x/ (I use the free version)

Find latest nightly build

% curl https://scala-ci.typesafe.com/job/scala-2.12.x-integrate-bootstrap/lastSuccessfulBuild/artifact/jenkins.properties/*view*/
version=2.12.3-bin-bd6294d
sbtDistVersionOverride=-Dproject.version=2.12.3-bin-bd6294d

Use the first version number in the next step.

Execute the benchmark

I ran the benchmark on the trees module in the scalameta repo. I chose that module because it synthesizes a lot of code with paradise macro annotations. The speedup factor is x0.83 (~12s down to ~10s), which seems consistent with the reported numbers in http://developer.lightbend.com/blog/2017-06-12-faster-scala-compiler/

Results for our proprietary application, ~70 kLoC in a mixture of styles: ~37s down to ~30s again gives a speedup factor of x0.83.

As an additional data point, the cold benchmark shows a x0.87 speedup, ~63s down to ~55s.

sbt core-macros module

I wanted to see the results for macro libraries' code. The new 2.12.3 is 48% faster in percentile 0.99. I have cleaned the environment to make sure the benchmark is reproducible. I have fixed the min and max frequency to 2.5GHz in an Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-6600U CPU whose max CPU is 3.4GHz. At the end of the benchmarks I attach my cpuinfo and meminfo.

sbt main module

With the same environment as before, I've benchmarked the compilation of the main module in sbt (the one that contains lots of calls to sbt macros and has Defaults.scala). The new version 2.12.3 is 22.5% faster in p0.99. This module has 17KLOC.

[retronym]

The new version 2.12.3 is 33% faster in p0.99

@jvican I don't think that's the best way to interpret the results, as you are comparing outliers. I'd say comparing 10089±174. vs 7825.872±110 (the result labelled "HotScalacBenchmark.compile") suggests a 22.5% improvement (compile time reduced by 0.776x)

[jvican]

Sorry, I got the improvement percentage wrong in my last comment. It's actually 22.5% in p99, the same as the average you report.

On a side note, I prefer to use percentiles rather than average times because percentiles give you more precise results. In computers that are running several applications at the same time (browser, other sbt instances, messaging applications, et cetera) hiccups or outliers are more prone to happen. Gil Tene's talk on measuring latency and several other interviews I've read seem to agree with this point. It is my understanding that it's good practice to use high percentiles to compare results safely and with more precision.

30% speedup for https://github.com/mpollmeier/gremlin-scala/ which uses shapeless and a macro!
