Hi,
I’ve noticed that `guix environment` can be very very slow for some packages.Whereas usually a call like
time guix environment --ad-hoc <package> -- true
takes 600ms to 1.5s, it takes 8.4s for the package r-learnr on my Ryzen 5 3600with NVMe SSD, 32G of RAM and a warm cache. This seems to accumulate whentrying to install multiple unrelated “slow” packages into the same environment,i.e. jupyter (2.9s) + r-rlearnr (8.4s) + r-stm (2.9s) = 12.1s. What thesepackages seem to have in common is a deep chain of propagated inputs.
And in fact, if I create artificial test packages where test-999 propagatestest-998, test-998→test-997 and so on the command above takes 1m 9s. A singlepackage propagating 999 packages takes 4.5s.
Instrumenting guix-environment’s with-store call with statprof I see a lot oftime is spent in the garbage collector:
Total time: 24.672604202 seconds (19.431122691 seconds in GC)./pre-inst-env guix environment --ad-hoc r-learnr -- true 25,18s user 0,24s system 308% cpu 8,248 total
More specifically in an anonymous function and reap-pipes, which is a gc hook,I believe:
% cumulative selftime seconds seconds calls procedure 33.41 14.49 8.24 anon #xbb8480 27.95 6.90 6.90 ice-9/popen.scm:145:0:reap-pipes 4.37 1.08 1.08 anon #xbbdcd8 3.28 0.86 0.81 ice-9/vlist.scm:539:0:vhash-assq 2.40 2.37 0.59 guix/grafts.scm:202:22
Not sure if that helps tracking the issue down though.
Cheers,Lars

Notice that the same command with ‘--no-grafts’ takes 2s instead of 11s.
The patch below arranges so that ‘cumulative-grafts’ processesdependencies in a batch, such that the derivation’s dependency graph istraversed once for all, which makes a difference for derivations withlots of inputs.
Here’s the before/after comparison:

There’s still room for improvement, but it’s much better.

that’s awesome and brings me much closer to my goal of running all applicationsinside a `guix environment` container for reproducibility. Including theprotocol fixes from #41720 I’m now down to ~30s from ~50s, which may be calledsomewhat usable. Obviously I’d be very interested in further speedups.

That’s over SSH, right?
Probably what’s killing us is the round-trip time for all these smallRPCs. We would need pipelining but the RPC protocol is not designed tomake that easy.
Perhaps you could “strace -Tt” the thing to check whether thishypothesis is correct by looking at the time we spend waiting forreplies?
As for the CPU cost (i.e., going below the 4.6s above), we should keepprofiling just like you did.
Thanks,Ludo’.

correct, the worst possible case: Inside two VM’s on a Laptop, SSH transportbetween them and /gnu+/var/guix on an NFS share (nfsd is in the same VM asguix-daemon).

That would have been my best guess too, but it does not seem to be the biggestproblem right now. Looking at the numbers again (both patches applied) with theattached manifest[1], I see that:

So I would conclude:
1) Grafting still takes a lot of time and needs more work2) Linux optimizes localhost networking pretty well3) Our SSH transport is terribly slow
Moving to non-localhost communication between two VM’s:

I’m not sure this will yield meaningful data for SSH, so I analyzet it forguix://localhost vs. guix://remote-host. Takeaway is, yes, of course there is astatistically significant difference and it’s about 40%±50%, which means thismethod is pretty useless, because we can’t bin RPC’s by type.
So, I guess it would make sense for me to look at the SSH transport itselfagain and see if there are any other low-hanging fruit. Not sure how much I canhelp with profiling guile/guix itself. A different/better RPC protocol isprobably GSoC/v2.0-worthy?

Yes, I noticed that there’s still redundant work being done, so we mayneed global caching in addition to what58bb833365db4e8934a386497d5b00a063cfd27d did.

Yes.
The patch below is a noticeable improvement for me. On my laptop,
GUIX_DAEMON_SOCKET=ssh://localhost ./pre-inst-env guix build libreoffice -n
goes from 5.8s to 3.3s. It just does the same thing as we do forguix://.
Could you check what results it gives you?

There’s a project to rewrite the daemon in Scheme, started by CalebRistvedt (reepa) as part of GSoC a few years ago.  This could be anopportunity to add a new version of the protocol that would supportpipelining.

Given how much improvement you’ve achieved so far I’d say we can (for now)probably get away with the current protocol. Still, what’s the status of thisdaemon?

The problem with this approach is that ‘open-connection’ is past the rawhost name; aliases, proxy commands, etc. from ~/.ssh/config are ignored.
So it cannot go in as is. :-/
What we need is Guile-SSH bindings for ‘ssh_get_fd’, which would allowus to get at the actual file descriptor after the connection has beenopened, and to set TCP_NODELAY there:
http://api.libssh.org/stable/group__libssh__session.html#gafe509fcea47714b5cd277d1e35e83276
It’s not 100% clear though if it returns that “right” FD when there’s aproxy command.

wouldn’t it be easier to add the SSH_OPTIONS_NODELAY option (see [1]) toguile-ssh (should be trivial[2]) and let guile-ssh handle all the connectionstuff without touching the socket? Or do we need the raw socket elsewhere?

Good idea, I had overlooked that possibility.

Hi (again),
and the attached patch uses the new nodelay option, if we don’t want to waitfor another guile-ssh release.

I’d rather wait; perhaps you can ask Artyom whether they’re planning fora new release soonish?
If there’s no plan for a release within two weeks, we can go ahead withthe patch you propose.

If we take this route, the two patches (guile-ssh changes, then (guixssh) changes) should be separate.
Also #:nodelay will cause a hard failure for people using an olderGuile-SSH. I wonder how to guard against that; configure check, orrun-time Guile-SSH version check?

It would be good to include the URL of the upstream issue
Thanks!

“I'll see if I can fix some random test failures with Guile 2.2 that sometimesoccur, and then I'll prepare a new release.”

Alright, I’ll prepare a new patch if either of the two events happen.

Hi Ludo,
a new version has been released, so here is the updated patchset. I’m not sureif it’s possible to make the #:nodelay optional somehow, i.e. retainingcompatibility with guile-ssh<0.13.0. For now there’s a hard feature check.

I adjusted the commit log and pushed.
I think it’s okay to use the new Guile-SSH feature right away becauseit’s not central, and ‘guix pull’ gives people the ability to get thenew Guile-SSH version.
Thanks!

Judging from the above, it seems this issue has been resolved.

Agreed. The fix in 58bb833365db4e8934a386497d5b00a063cfd27d isincomplete: we’re still potentially doing things several times.
