From 75f7fda788bd6d22e47cf01a7d254904566003bb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Brummel Date: Sat, 9 May 2026 01:21:15 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] =?UTF-8?q?bench:=2021'f=20=E2=80=94=20explicit-mode=20pai?= =?UTF-8?q?r,=20full=20alloc+dec=20vs=20malloc+free?= MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Closes the apples-to-apples gap from 21'e. Adds: - examples/bench_list_sum_explicit.ailx — same algorithm and sizes as bench_list_sum, fully (borrow)/(own)/(drop-iterative) annotated so codegen emits proper inc/dec instrumentation. - bench/reference/list_sum_explicit_free.c — same algorithm with explicit free() walking the chain after sum. The full alloc+dec vs malloc+free comparison reveals two non- trivial conclusions: 1. AILang's full RC pipeline is only 26% slower than glibc malloc+free on this workload (rc/c = 1.26x). The implicit- mode comparison's 1.42x was misleading — it counted neither pipeline's free path. The fair ratio is 1.26x, materially better than the previous read. 2. RC's dec is cheaper per cell than glibc free(). AILang dec-tax: ~3 ns/cell. C free-tax: ~5.5 ns/cell. Plausible cause: ailang_rc_dec operates on a known-shape cell with a fixed-offset refcount and a static per-type drop fn — no free-list bucketing, no header introspection, no global lock. bump's advantage expresses fully: bench_list_sum_explicit.bump/c = 0.42x means AILang at bump is 2.4x faster than C malloc+free. Sets a useful upper bound on a slab/pool RC allocator's potential. The 21'-family arc — bench-regression infrastructure — is now substantively complete: 21'a (bench/check.py), 21'b (corpus widening), 21'c (compile_check.py), 21'd (pure-compute fixtures + harness hardening), 21'e (cross-language hand-C), 21'f (explicit apples-to-apples). 63 runtime metrics + 18 compile metrics + 25 cross-lang metrics under regression coverage. Any future iter that regresses any axis beyond tolerance gets caught at the next family close. Remaining queue is back to substantive language work — Family 21 (typeclasses / polymorphic ADTs at runtime / pattern-binding generalisation) is now an orchestrator-level fork that needs direct user input. --- bench/baseline.json | 10 ++ bench/baseline_cross_lang.json | 62 ++++++---- bench/cross_lang.py | 9 +- bench/reference/list_sum_explicit_free.c | 76 ++++++++++++ bench/run.sh | 2 +- docs/JOURNAL.md | 140 ++++++++++++++++++++++ examples/bench_list_sum_explicit.ail.json | 1 + examples/bench_list_sum_explicit.ailx | 94 +++++++++++++++ 8 files changed, 369 insertions(+), 25 deletions(-) create mode 100644 bench/reference/list_sum_explicit_free.c create mode 100644 examples/bench_list_sum_explicit.ail.json create mode 100644 examples/bench_list_sum_explicit.ailx diff --git a/bench/baseline.json b/bench/baseline.json index 18782d0..5a1c9cb 100644 --- a/bench/baseline.json +++ b/bench/baseline.json @@ -54,6 +54,16 @@ "gc_rss_kb": { "baseline": 13624, "tolerance_pct": 15 }, "bump_rss_kb": { "baseline": 13860, "tolerance_pct": 15 }, "rc_rss_kb": { "baseline": 13880, "tolerance_pct": 15 } + }, + "bench_list_sum_explicit": { + "gc_s": { "baseline": 0.139, "tolerance_pct": 10 }, + "bump_s": { "baseline": 0.048, "tolerance_pct": 10 }, + "rc_s": { "baseline": 0.152, "tolerance_pct": 10 }, + "gc_over_bump": { "baseline": 2.89, "tolerance_pct": 8 }, + "rc_over_bump": { "baseline": 3.14, "tolerance_pct": 8 }, + "gc_rss_kb": { "baseline": 103772, "tolerance_pct": 5 }, + "bump_rss_kb": { "baseline": 97636, "tolerance_pct": 5 }, + "rc_rss_kb": { "baseline": 142424, "tolerance_pct": 8 } } }, diff --git a/bench/baseline_cross_lang.json b/bench/baseline_cross_lang.json index 3eb6f6f..357e6ac 100644 --- a/bench/baseline_cross_lang.json +++ b/bench/baseline_cross_lang.json @@ -6,89 +6,111 @@ "fixtures": { "bench_list_sum": { "ail_rc_s": { - "baseline": 0.141597, + "baseline": 0.138906, "tolerance_pct": 15 }, "ail_bump_s": { - "baseline": 0.048038, + "baseline": 0.050245, "tolerance_pct": 15 }, "c_s": { - "baseline": 0.095312, + "baseline": 0.09749, "tolerance_pct": 15 }, "rc_over_c": { - "baseline": 1.485614, + "baseline": 1.42483, "tolerance_pct": 12 }, "bump_over_c": { - "baseline": 0.504003, + "baseline": 0.515393, "tolerance_pct": 12 } }, "bench_tree_walk": { "ail_rc_s": { - "baseline": 0.097028, + "baseline": 0.100173, "tolerance_pct": 15 }, "ail_bump_s": { - "baseline": 0.038905, + "baseline": 0.038673, "tolerance_pct": 15 }, "c_s": { - "baseline": 0.037159, + "baseline": 0.036567, "tolerance_pct": 15 }, "rc_over_c": { - "baseline": 2.611185, + "baseline": 2.739449, "tolerance_pct": 12 }, "bump_over_c": { - "baseline": 1.046998, + "baseline": 1.057606, "tolerance_pct": 12 } }, "bench_compute_intsum": { "ail_rc_s": { - "baseline": 0.00044, + "baseline": 0.000362, "tolerance_pct": 15 }, "ail_bump_s": { - "baseline": 0.000393, + "baseline": 0.000371, "tolerance_pct": 15 }, "c_s": { - "baseline": 0.000374, + "baseline": 0.000361, "tolerance_pct": 15 }, "rc_over_c": { - "baseline": 1.177715, + "baseline": 1.002676, "tolerance_pct": 12 }, "bump_over_c": { - "baseline": 1.050856, + "baseline": 1.028255, "tolerance_pct": 12 } }, "bench_compute_collatz": { "ail_rc_s": { - "baseline": 0.056878, + "baseline": 0.057994, "tolerance_pct": 15 }, "ail_bump_s": { - "baseline": 0.056547, + "baseline": 0.057159, "tolerance_pct": 15 }, "c_s": { - "baseline": 0.05748, + "baseline": 0.05776, "tolerance_pct": 15 }, "rc_over_c": { - "baseline": 0.989523, + "baseline": 1.00405, "tolerance_pct": 12 }, "bump_over_c": { - "baseline": 0.983756, + "baseline": 0.989593, + "tolerance_pct": 12 + } + }, + "bench_list_sum_explicit": { + "ail_rc_s": { + "baseline": 0.150754, + "tolerance_pct": 15 + }, + "ail_bump_s": { + "baseline": 0.0495, + "tolerance_pct": 15 + }, + "c_s": { + "baseline": 0.119204, + "tolerance_pct": 15 + }, + "rc_over_c": { + "baseline": 1.264667, + "tolerance_pct": 12 + }, + "bump_over_c": { + "baseline": 0.415253, "tolerance_pct": 12 } } diff --git a/bench/cross_lang.py b/bench/cross_lang.py index 2f48495..683a135 100755 --- a/bench/cross_lang.py +++ b/bench/cross_lang.py @@ -47,10 +47,11 @@ OUTDIR = ROOT / "target" / "cross_lang" # (ailang fixture stem, C reference stem) — both must exist as # `examples/.ail.json` and `bench/reference/.c`.
