MasterDuke anyone object to rebasing rakuast up to master? i.e., after 2022.03 08:41

Add .rakumod files to compiler id		 09:26
rakudo: 970f1828ca | (Elizabeth Mattijsen)++ | lib/CompUnit/Repository/Staging.rakumod
There's an IO::Path.copy, so use that

That should also take care of any attributes being copied as well.
  hythm++ for spotting		 09:44
rakudo/rakuast: 30902c0d0f | (Daniel Green)++ | 2 files
Add .rakumod files to compiler id

This means a change to them will invalidate precomp files. This wasn't a problem before rakuast because rakudo/src/* didn't have any .rakumod files, but now it does.

lizmat MasterDuke: is the removal of lib/.precomp also done for the rakuast branch ? 09:46
MasterDuke when? it happens during a `make realclean` 09:47
lizmat ah, ok... well there's news: on HEAD, lib/.precomp doesn't even get created anymore 09:58
hmmm... lemme double check that :-) 09:59
yup
c081f32838a863cdb57a6c077c5c26cd6cde0893 took care of that :-) 10:00

lizmat hmmm... it probably shouldn't ? 10:20
hmmm... I guess "make test" needs to be able to run without having run "make install" 10:29
meh 10:30
nine Yes, it is customary to run tests before installing 10:35

Add CUR::Staging.rempove-artefacts method

To hopefully make it easier to cleanup a CURS repo before packaging. Logic lifted from tools/install-dist.raku.		 11:55
lizmat argh, .remove.artefacts of course :-(
MasterDuke hm, don't we usually use american english spellings? 11:56
lizmat I guess :-( didn't realize there as a US spelling for it 11:58

Streamline install-dist to more modern Raku code

  - move pod to end
  - less copy-paste code, more subs
  - more internal documentation

Geth rakudo/install-without-precompile: 1c059c2be6 | (Elizabeth Mattijsen)++ | 2 files
Add :precompile = True flag to CURI.install

The idea behind this is to allow modules to just be installed and have the runtime decide when it should (re-)precompile any compilation units that were not precompiled yet. This would e.g. allow the DateTime::TimeZone distribution to be installed within a second, rather than on 4+ minutes. And only precompile those timezones that are actually used at runtime.
Also add the --/precompile flag to install-dist.raku		 13:37

MasterDuke nice 14:22
[Tux]: do you have test-t-20 graphed over similar timespans? 14:23
14:27 _ed joined
japhb wonders what sped things up that much 14:32
MasterDuke probably just a lucky hash randomization. even with MVM_SPESH_BLOCKING i've seen thing where the timing will be pretty consistent between most runs, but with noticeable outliers in either direction 14:35
japhb Wow, the drop in Q4 for test-t-20 is even more dramatic than for test-t 14:36
MasterDuke: interesting
Meanwhile sadly "test-t --race" still isn't back to where it was in Q4 *2018* 14:39
Makes me wonder why not
MasterDuke werem 14:41
14:41 _ed left
japhb ? 14:41
MasterDuke *weren't some massive stability problems with race/hyper fixed around then?
japhb Ah, interesting.
It looks like the "fixed" version of early 2019 forms a hard performance baseline -- some changes made "test-t --race" slower, but none slower. You could almost draw a horizontal line below the last 3 years. 14:44
*but none faster
14:48 carlmasak left 14:50 carlmasak joined 14:54 _ed joined
[Tux] I repeat that test-t --race is an interesting showcase, but *only* for valid CSV as in this test: the --race version will FAIL on any more complex CSV 14:54
MasterDuke: tux.nl/Talks/CSV6/speed.log - graph all you like 14:55
japhb I'm not sure what you mean by "valid" versus "complex" ... could you explain a bit more?
[Tux] embedded newlines will cause the race version to parse incomplete lines 14:56
japhb MasterDuke: if you have the Terminal::Quickcharts repo: `wget tux.nl/Talks/CSV6/speed-all.log; raku -I. examples/csv-timings "test-t --race"` 14:57
[Tux]: Huh. 14:58
15:00 vrurg_ is now known as vrurg 15:02 _ed left
dogbert11 has a vague memory seeing a valgrind error in one of the CSV tests relating to newlines 15:08
[Tux] japhb, IIRC Liz created the race version where each "line" in a file is passed to a parser instance. Multiple parsers then each finish their work, but this will fail on e.g. `1,2,"foo\nbar",3,4"`, as parser 1 gets `1,2,"foo\n` and parser 2 gets `bar",3,4` both being invalid CSV 15:19
japhb [Tux]: AH! That makes sense now

MasterDuke japhb: test-t-20 --race does show a drop at new-disp merge 16:26
japhb MasterDuke: Nod, but "test-t --race" does not. 16:28
MasterDuke right, it's currently dominated by startup (process + threads) time 16:29
japhb That's a lot of startup time ....
MasterDuke well, overhead in general is probably a better word 16:33
japhb Fair. 16:36

Create separate methods so we don't need to check things all the time. And make the RAKUDO_MODULE_DEBUG output a bit less noisy.
