index_layout.rs

//! One git object index, **three Arrow IPC layouts**, measured against each other.
//!
//! ## The question
//!
//! A git `.pack` carries no index at all. Git derives several *separate* files
//! from it — `.idx` (oid → offset), `.rev` (offset → length), `.bitmap`,
//! `.midx` — and two of the four facts a server actually needs on the hot path
//! are in **none** of them:
//!
//! | fact | where git keeps it |
//! |---|---|
//! | oid | `.idx` |
//! | byte extent (offset, len) | offset in `.idx`, length only via `.rev` or the next offset |
//! | **type** | nowhere — an entry-header parse per object |
//! | **uncompressed size** | nowhere — the same entry-header parse |
//! | **delta base** | nowhere — the same entry-header parse, plus a varint |
//!
//! ## `delta_base` is an OFFSET, and the arms are named for what they were
//!
//! PLAN §13 settles it: `delta_base` is a `u64` **archive offset**, not a row
//! ordinal into this table. An ordinal would be half the width and would index
//! the very table it sits in — and it would break **silently** the first time
//! the table is rebuilt in a different order, which §14 guarantees will happen
//! because the whole index is a droppable cache. An offset is order-independent
//! because the pack it addresses never moves; `PackWalk::rebased` shifts it with
//! one addition and no table to keep in step. `0` is the sentinel for *no base*:
//! archive offset 0 is a pack's `PACK` magic, so no entry can start there.
//!
//! It joined the schema after the three arms were named and measured, so the
//! names now count **sections and tables, which is the variable under test** —
//! not facts. [`FourTables`] is four IPC sections, [`OneTableFourColumns`] is
//! one; both carry **five** payload columns today, and [`PackedPayload`] still
//! carries one. Every ns figure quoted below was taken on the four-fact,
//! 25-byte schema and is marked where that matters.
//!
//! So `cat-file --batch-check` over a pack is a varint decode per object, and a
//! `have` negotiation of 1000 oids is 1000 of them. Consolidating all four facts
//! into one index is the point of this module. The open question is what
//! *shape* that index should have, and this module answers it by building three
//! shapes behind [`ObjectIndex`] and benchmarking them
//! (`examples/index_layout_bench.rs`).
//!
//! | arm | payload columns | buffers a full-row fetch touches |
//! |---|---:|---:|
//! | [`FourTables`] | 5, in four IPC sections | 5 |
//! | [`OneTableFourColumns`] | 5, in one IPC section | 5 |
//! | [`PackedPayload`] | **1**, in one IPC section | **1** |
//!
//! The first two were the original experiment, and they **tied at every size,
//! batch size and hit rate**. The reason is visible in the table: Arrow is
//! columnar, so "one table with five columns" is *not* row-contiguous. Both
//! arms keep `offset`, `len`, `object_type`, `uncompressed_size` and
//! `delta_base` in five separate buffers whose bases are megabytes apart
//! (measured: 1 737 664 bytes between the `offset` and `size` buffers at
//! 100 000 rows), so a full-row fetch costs five unrelated strides either way.
//! **The number of tables was never the variable. The number of columns is** —
//! which is what the third arm changes, and it is the only one that moves the
//! number.
//!
//! ## What is deliberately shared, so the measurement is of the layout
//!
//! All three arms resolve `oid → ordinal` through the **same** [`crate::oid_index`]
//! `stree` (LAW 5: reuse, do not twin — and a third oid index written by
//! accident would have made the arms incomparable anyway). The two columnar arms
//! share one `ColumnarPayload` holding every read path, so they cannot drift
//! apart in the hot loop and the only thing between them is IPC framing.
//!
//! ## Zero-copy is asserted, not assumed
//!
//! All three arms decode with `StreamDecoder::with_require_alignment(true)`,
//! which makes arrow **error** rather than silently allocate-and-copy when a
//! buffer is misaligned. A layout that quietly copied its columns out of the IPC
//! bytes on open would be a different (and much slower to build) thing than the
//! one being claimed, so the reader refuses to be that thing.
//! [`ObjectIndex::ipc_bytes`] plus each arm's `column_is_inside_ipc` let a test
//! prove each array's data pointer actually lies inside the IPC buffer.
//!
//! # Measured
//!
//! oden, 32 cores, 2026-08-07, `--release --no-default-features`, sha1 oids,
//! 100 000 lookups per cell, 5 runs per cell, 4 sizes × 3 hit rates × 7 access
//! paths + 2 column scans. `/proc/loadavg` 0.96–2.98 (1-min) across the three
//! sweeps — the first rotation started at 2.98, the other two at 1.53 and 1.35,
//! and the reported figures are the geometric mean of all three, so no arm sat
//! disproportionately in the busier one.
//!
//! Position is cancelled by **rotation**: the sweep is run three times with the
//! arm order rotated, so each arm occupies each position exactly once. This
//! matters — in the earlier two-arm work the arm timed second was measurably
//! 1.1% slower at N ≥ 1e6 whichever layout it was, which is enough to invent a
//! result out of nothing.
//!
//! **Noise band: median 8.9% run-to-run spread, p90 32.3%** over 270 cells
//! (excluding the 1e3 scans, whose ns-per-row is below timer resolution). The
//! p90 is carried almost entirely by the 100 000-object rows, where the index
//! fits in L3; at 1e3 and 4e6 the bands are 2–20%. **Nothing below is claimed
//! unless it clears its own cell's band.**
//!
//! ## First: the harness really does read all four facts
//!
//! This has to be established before any of the rest means anything. A harness
//! that resolved the oid and threw the row away would measure the `stree` and
//! nothing else, and would produce a tie no matter what the layouts did.
//!
//! [`ObjectIndex::ordinals_batch`] exists for exactly this: it resolves
//! `oid → ordinal` and stops, touching no payload byte, and it is the same code
//! in all three arms. Subtracting it from the full-row path isolates the payload
//! gather — the only part any of these layouts can change:
//!
//! | objects | mix | stree floor | A payload | B payload | **C payload** | C/B |
//! |---:|---|---:|---:|---:|---:|---:|
//! | 1e3 | 100% hit | 50.3 | 6.3 | 6.1 | **1.5** | 0.24 |
//! | 1e3 | 10% hit | 39.1 | 5.3 | 5.1 | **1.8** | 0.34 |
//! | 1e5 | 50% hit | 58.6 | 15.0 | 14.0 | **10.6** | 0.76 |
//! | 1e6 | 100% hit | 195.8 | 45.0 | 46.2 | **27.7** | 0.60 |
//! | 1e6 | 10% hit | 113.4 | 11.4 | 11.1 | **7.2** | 0.65 |
//! | 4e6 | 100% hit | 247.2 | 39.2 | 43.1 | **29.8** | 0.69 |
//! | 4e6 | 50% hit | 199.6 | 30.9 | 27.9 | **20.9** | 0.75 |
//! | 4e6 | 10% hit | 141.3 | 25.1 | 21.7 | **17.7** | 0.81 |
//!
//! ns per lookup, batch 1000, position-cancelled. The payload column is nowhere
//! near zero and it differs between arms, so the facts are being read. It is
//! **9–28% of a full-row lookup**; the shared `stree` is the other 72–91%.
//!
//! ## The owner was right: one column IS faster to fetch than four
//!
//! On the part of the work the layout controls, `PackedPayload` cuts the payload
//! gather by **19–76%**, and by **25–40% at every size from 1e6 up**. One
//! 25-byte stride against four strides megabytes apart, exactly as predicted.
//! The single cell that does not show it (1e5, 100% hit, C/B 1.06) sits in the
//! noisiest regime in the sweep, band 44%.
//!
//! Those cells are the **four-fact** schema. `delta_base` makes the packed
//! record 33 bytes and gives the columnar arms a fifth stride, so the mechanism
//! points the same way and the magnitudes are stale until re-measured. See
//! "What the fifth column costs" below for the measurement that was actually
//! taken after the column landed.
//!
//! **But the win is capped by Amdahl**, and this is the honest headline: the
//! payload gather is only 9–28% of a lookup, so a 31% cut in it is a **4–8% cut
//! end to end**. At 4e6 objects, 100% hit, position-cancelled `C/B`:
//!
//! | path | A ns | B ns | C ns | C/B | band | |
//! |---|---:|---:|---:|---:|---:|---|
//! | ordinals only (the floor) | 247.2 | 245.1 | 244.6 | 0.998 | 4.9% | tie, as it must be |
//! | full row, serial `lookup` | 464.8 | 471.8 | 435.2 | **0.922** | 7.7% | **C faster** |
//! | full row, batch 1 | 824.2 | 811.9 | 757.4 | 0.933 | 11.4% | inside band |
//! | full row, batch 100 | 298.6 | 299.0 | 283.4 | **0.948** | 5.2% | **C faster** |
//! | full row, batch 1000 | 286.4 | 288.3 | 274.4 | **0.952** | 2.8% | **C faster** |
//! | full row, batch 10000 | 284.4 | 283.3 | 271.5 | 0.959 | 4.8% | inside band |
//! | extents only, batch 1000 | 261.5 | 263.0 | 264.2 | 1.005 | 4.0% | tie |
//!
//! Three of the four full-row cells clear their band; the direction is the same
//! in all seven and at every size. At 1e3 the win is larger and cleaner (C/B
//! 0.898–0.931 at batch ≥ 100, bands 1.8–2.8%) because there the `stree` floor
//! is small enough not to swamp it.
//!
//! **`extents` is a tie, and that is the mechanism confirming itself.** A
//! partial-row fetch of two facts lets the columnar arms read two columns
//! instead of four, while the packed arm reads the same 25 bytes it always
//! reads. The advantage is exactly proportional to how much of the row you want,
//! and at half a row it is gone.
//!
//! ## What the fifth column costs
//!
//! **Footprint: exactly 8 bytes per object, in every arm.** This is arithmetic,
//! not an estimate, and the byte-exact guards below hold it there: the packed
//! record goes 25 → 33 B, and each columnar arm gains one `u64` buffer of `8n`
//! bytes. 800 kB per 100 000 objects; 32 MB at 4e6. The only *relative* change
//! between arms is that `PackedPayload` now saves four per-column IPC buffers
//! instead of three — MEASURED 50 560 B at 100 000 rows against the 38 016 B it
//! saved before (`the_packed_arm_holds_the_same_payload_but_a_smaller_section`,
//! which asserts the scaling law rather than the constant).
//!
//! **Latency: NOT re-measured, and no claim is made.** Two reasons, and the
//! second is the one that will still be true tomorrow.
//!
//! Load was the first: the harness refuses above 1-minute load 4.0 and oden was
//! carrying another agent's build at 9–26 for most of this change. That one
//! cleared on its own (it fell to 2.1), so it is not the reason this is still
//! unmeasured.
//!
//! **A before/after of a znippy change cannot be built in this tree, and that is
//! structural.** A before/after needs the old and the new source resolved at the
//! same time, which needs two znippy checkouts, and there is nowhere to put the
//! second one — MEASURED by trying all three placements:
//!
//! | where the second checkout goes | what happens |
//! |---|---|
//! | anywhere under `~/git` | `package collision in the lockfile: znippy-common v0.9.13 (…/znippy-pre-deltabase) and znippy-common v0.9.13 (…/znippy) are different` |
//! | anywhere outside it | `failed to read …/znippy-zoomies/lbzip2/Cargo.toml` |
//!
//! The cycle is the cause, not the placement: znippy's `xtask` and `tests`
//! depend on `../../nornir`, and `nornir` depends back on
//! `../znippy/znippy-common` — an absolute reference to *the* canonical
//! checkout. So a second checkout drags the canonical one into its own resolve
//! and two different copies of one version land in one lockfile. Move it out of
//! `~/git` to escape that and it loses the `../../znippy-zoomies/…`
//! path dependencies instead. Symlinking the siblings back does not help: cargo
//! canonicalises, so `nornir` resolves to the real one and points at the real
//! znippy again.
//!
//! Anyone wanting this number should therefore plan on **one checkout, timed
//! twice** — build the bench, `git checkout` the other revision of these files
//! in place, build again — and should not spend the hour discovering the above.
//! That mutates a shared checkout for as long as it takes to compile, which is
//! why it was not done here while another agent was working in this crate.
//!
//! What can be said without measuring, and is deliberately weaker than a
//! number: the payload gather is 9–28% of a lookup, a columnar full-row fetch
//! goes from four strides to five, and the packed record goes from ~1.4 cache
//! lines to ~1.5. Both arms get slightly worse and the packed arm's *relative*
//! advantage on full-row fetches should narrow a little. An 8-byte-per-row
//! effect is in any case inside the 8.9% median / 32.3% p90 band this sweep
//! already reports, so the honest expectation is a null result rather than a
//! regression. **Re-run `examples/index_layout_bench.rs` on a quiet box before
//! quoting any of the ns tables above as current.**
//!
//! ## …and it loses the scans, by a lot
//!
//! ns per row, full column scan, position-cancelled:
//!
//! | objects | scan | A | B | **C** | C/B |
//! |---:|---|---:|---:|---:|---:|
//! | 4e6 | `sum_uncompressed` (uses 8 B of every row) | 0.36 | 0.36 | **1.19** | **3.3×** |
//! | 4e6 | `count_type` (uses 1 B of every row) | 0.09 | 0.09 | **1.32** | **14.4×** |
//! | 1e6 | `count_type` | 0.09 | 0.09 | **1.27** | **14.0×** |
//! | 1e5 | `count_type` | 0.09 | 0.09 | **0.51** | **5.5×** |
//!
//! The 4e6 rows clear their bands (4.5% and 34.7%) with room to spare, and the
//! direction is identical at every size. This is the trade stated in
//! [`PackedPayload`]'s docs, landing exactly where predicted: `count_type` drags
//! 25 bytes through cache to use one, so it pays ~14× for the privilege of the
//! 5% it won on full-row fetches. A quota gate or a type histogram over a
//! 4-million-object repository is 5 ms on the columnar arms and 5 ms × 3–14 on
//! this one.
//!
//! ## The other figures
//!
//! | | FourTables | OneTableFourColumns | PackedPayload |
//! |---|---:|---:|---:|
//! | resident (IPC + stree), 4e6 | 326.635 MiB | 326.634 MiB | 325.203 MiB |
//! | build, 4e6 objects | 3.956 s | 4.052 s | 3.975 s |
//!
//! * **A vs B is still a tie**, now confirmed with a harness that provably reads
//!   the payload: `A/B` ranges 0.96–1.06 and every cell is inside its band. Four
//!   sections cost exactly **1048 bytes more than one, constant at every size** —
//!   the framing of three extra IPC streams, 0.0003% at 4e6.
//! * **`PackedPayload` is the smallest on disk**, by three per-column IPC
//!   buffers: 38 016 B at 100 000 rows, 75 456 B at 200 000, i.e. `3 · n/8`. Its
//!   *payload* is byte-identical (25 = 8 + 8 + 1 + 8).
//! * **Build is a tie across all three** — within 2.5% at 4e6, inside the band.
//!   Build is the oid sort and the `stree`, not the framing or the packing.
//!
//! ## What this means for the shape of the index
//!
//! Neither the packed arm nor the columnar ones is right everywhere, and the
//! measurement says which is which rather than leaving it to taste:
//!
//! * The negotiation path (`want`/`have`, full row) is **5% faster packed**, and
//!   the ceiling on that is the `stree`, not the payload — the next real win on
//!   that path is in the oid step, not here.
//! * The wire path (`extents`) is **indifferent**.
//! * Analytics (quota gates, type histograms) are **3–14× slower packed**.
//! * The packed arm gives up being four typed Arrow columns. A
//!   `FixedSizeBinary(25)` is opaque to DuckDB / Polars / DataFusion, which can
//!   query the other two arms straight off the IPC bytes with no consumer code.
//!   That is a real cost and it is not a performance one.
//!
//! ## The stree header was the next experiment, and it was a negative result
//!
//! What this sweep *can* say, which the two-arm version could not, is that
//! **the oid step is where the remaining time is**: the `ordinals_batch` floor is
//! 72–91% of every full-row lookup, and it is identical in all three arms. The
//! floor itself grows 39 ns → 247 ns from 1e3 to 4e6 objects, which is cache and
//! TLB behaviour in the `stree`, not in any payload column.
//!
//! That pointed at `oid_index`'s 24-byte header (24 mod 64 = 24, so the key
//! array is off-line by construction). It has now been built and measured —
//! [`crate::oid_index::OidLayout`] and `examples/oid_align_bench.rs`, three arms
//! separating the header offset from the allocator. **A 64-aligned keyspace
//! takes 5.2% off cache-misses, reproducibly, and does not move the clock at
//! all**: 0 of 24 cells clear their band, and 0 of 6 clear it again at 4e6 with
//! the band tightened to 5%. The header is not where the oid step's time is, and
//! the reason is instructive — `stree`'s internal nodes live in the tree's own
//! `Vec`, not in this section, so the header could only ever move the leaf
//! touch, and the pipelined batch walk was already hiding it. The full numbers
//! and the mechanism are in [`crate::oid_index`].
