Bug 64862

Created attachment 101448 [details] Switch isFixedSize virtual function to inline one. The number of variables created during the test. m_isFixedSize 725 The max number of variables in the memory during the test. m_isFixedsize 57

Comment on attachment 101448 [details] Switch isFixedSize virtual function to inline one. Please respond to Dave Hyatt. Again, memory hit.

I believe there are some wasted bits that could be put to good use for a perf enhancement without increasing the memory overhead. Please give a chance to upload an RFC patch and some repeatable numbers.

View in context: https://bugs.webkit.org/attachment.cgi?id=101448&action=review Does this change result in a measurable performance progression? After cleaning up, try PerformanceTests/Parser/html5-full-render.html with 20 runs on tip of tree (ToT) with and without the patch. > Source/WebCore/css/CSSCanvasValue.h:52 > + m_isFixedSize = true; I believe the preference is for a protected setter. > Source/WebCore/css/CSSImageGeneratorValue.h:31 > +#include <wtf/AlwaysInline.h> As mentioned on the related bugs, no need for AlwaysInline because the accessors are trivial functions. > Source/WebCore/css/CSSImageGeneratorValue.h:52 > - virtual bool isFixedSize() const { return false; } > + ALWAYS_INLINE bool isFixedSize() const { return m_isFixedSize; } Ditto. > Source/WebCore/css/CSSImageGeneratorValue.h:71 > RefPtr<StyleGeneratedImage> m_image; > bool m_accessedImage; > + bool m_isFixedSize; > As with https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=64865 there is almost a whole word of wasted bits in this structure already. I suggest amending this patch to ensure that the bools are part of the same bitfield.

Unfortunately, the variance also seems to have increased now swamping any minor performance increment. The progression between ToT and this patch is just 0.3% or 0.2 stdevs, so it is not a clear winner. It is worth noting that the only consumer of CSSImageGeneratorValue::isFixedSize() is CSSImageGeneratorValue::generatedImage(). I would not expect it to be called often enough to produce a measurable penalty.
