  1. Inside Treasure Data “API” Treasure Data Tech Talk 201706 @k0kubun

    Extra: CRuby and ERB optimization at TD Hackathon
  2. Who are you? • Takashi Kokubun (@k0kubun) • "API" team

    at Treasure Data • Ruby committer (New!) • Maintainer of ERB
  3. Agenda • What does "API" do at Treasure Data? •

    The architecture of our Rails application • Extra: Optimization of CRuby & ERB at TD Hackathon
  4. “API” team @uu59 Team Lead Embulk Integration @kamipo Tech Lead

    Infrastructure, DBA @crzrcn Frontend @k0kubun Backend middleware API team’s main task is developing Rails app called “API”. The latter explanation is additional roles other than API.
  5. "Senior APIs Engineer"? • In Treasure Data, "API" means Rails

    app serving public and internal REST APIs • But it also does many other things…
  6. The Rails app does • Import data sent from Fluentd

    • Integrate with other systems by Embulk • Schema management of "PlazmaDB" • Manage Hive and Presto queries
  7. We should call not just "API" but... • "Treasure Data

    hosted analytics platform” • Actually the phrase is written in description • It's related to almost every system in TD • Let's look into its internals

  15. Import data sent from Fluentd • This part is under

    high loads and bottleneck • Data import part will be replaced by @tagomoris's project • Maybe he'll publish its architecture in the future • I'm developing one of its middlewares in Java
  16. l"1*z Integrate with other systems by Embulk $VTUPNFS Browser opening

  29. What should we improve? • Scalability • It's multi-tenant system

    and every part must be scalable • Productivity • Splitting monolith to proper size to reduce communication cost • Release cost is high but it can be improved • Reliability • To avoid unexpected errors, we need a developer with great Rails understanding
  30. Why you should join us • Our Rails application is

    integrated with many interesting things which normal ones aren’t • Fluentd, Embulk, Digdag, Hive, Presto, Hadoop, perfectqueue, PlazmaDB, other Java workers and middlewares… • Treasure Data is a company that solves customer’s highly technical difficult problems • Since the problems are complex, building platform for them is hard and interesting
  31. TD Hackathon • Treasure Data’s internal hackathon for 2 days

    • Free theme, but no TD usual work • I joined it with @nalsh to optimize something in CRuby Not all of following contents are done in TD Hackathon. We did SSE and researched about ERB optimization idea 1 & 2 at TD Hackathon. But others are just my hobby.
  32. Optimize CGI.escapeHTML using SSE • In template engine performance on

    Rails, HTML escaping is the bottleneck • We can search target characters in a batch using SSE instruction • I created "hescape gem" as PoC in the past • Can we improve and introduce it to CRuby?
  33. CGI.escapeHTML w/ PCMPESTRI (k0kubun/ruby @ 5f9b4e2) PCMPESTRI: Packed Compare Explicit

    Length Strings, Return Index Create escaped characters mask Compare 16 chars in the same time, return 1st found index
  34. • In this version, hescape's problems are fixed • Interface

    problem is already solved, no page faults, reduced number of variables • 3.74x faster on no HTML escaped chars • When many escaped characters are found, it's slow • Can we improve this using PCMPESTRM? CGI.escapeHTML w/ PCMPESTRI (k0kubun/ruby @ 5f9b4e2) PCMPESTRI: Packed Compare Explicit Length Strings, Return Index
  35. CGI.escapeHTML w/ PCMPESTRM (k0kubun/ruby @ 4aea42c) PCMPESTRM: Packed Compare Explicit

    Length Strings, Return Mask Load found indices in 16bit mask Compare 16 chars in the same time, return found mask
  36. CGI.escapeHTML w/ PCMPESTRM (k0kubun/ruby @ 4aea42c) PCMPESTRM: Packed Compare Explicit

    Length Strings, Return Mask Before After With all characters escaped (worst case for SSE): 87.3% of old ver. 95.2% of old ver.
  37. • Much improved with escaped characters • 0% escaped: 3.74x

    → 3.10x • 1% escaped: 1.53x → 1.57x • 5% escaped: 1.30x → 1.28x • 10% escaped: 1.18x → 1.16x • 20% escaped: 0.97x → 0.98x • 100% escaped: 0.87x → 0.95x • Looks reasonable, but not so good enough to spoil readability… CGI.escapeHTML w/ PCMPESTRM (k0kubun/ruby @ 4aea42c) PCMPESTRM: Packed Compare Explicit Length Strings, Return Mask
  38. CGI.escapeHTML future works? • With SSE, for length < 16

    • To avoid page fault, current patch just skips the last fragment • We can solve that problem by adjusting scan position first • Reduce memory allocation times • houdini (and hescape) allocates extra (sometimes unnecessary) memory on buffer extension, and it’s fast • If we can predict exact result length WITH SOME MAGIC, it'd be fairly fast
  39. ERB rendering optimization • With Ruby 2.4’s ERB, rendering is

    slower than Erubi • Note: Erubi is Rails’ default template engine for erb • Can we improve ERB's rendering time, mostly for Sinatra? • For one-time rendering like Chef usage, we also need to care about compiling time • Usually optimizing rendering without slowing down compiling is hard
  40. ERB optimization idea 1: opt_ltlt • In YARV, there are

    instructions that can bypass method call overhead for some methods • ex) +, -, *, /, <, >, ==, <<, … • ERB generates _erbout.concat instead of _erbout <<, so there was optimization chance
  41. ERB optimization idea 1: opt_ltlt See ruby/ruby#1612 for benchmark details

    Optimized 77%, but why? Ruby method call is so slow? (explained later)
  42. ERB optimization idea 2: opt_tos • If bypassing method call

    is fast, would it be fast to bypass #to_s calls too? • It’s not registered as opt_* instruction now • Note: tostring instruction doesn’t check String#to_s redefinition, so they’re different • Since I made some effort to omit #to_s calls in Hamlit, it would be happy if it’s fast
  43. ERB optimization idea 2: opt_tos In average, 2.103s → 2.022s.

    So only improved 4%. What’s different from <<?
  44. ERB optimization idea 2: opt_tos • String#concat was made slower

    in Ruby 2.4 • It’s changed to take multiple arguments and create a temporary buffer in Feature#12333. • In Ruby 2.4+, String#<< is just faster than String#concat
  45. ERB optimization idea 2: opt_tos • I got back String#concat’s

    performance (1.44x) and didn’t introduce opt_tos instruction
  46. ERB optimization idea 3: skip force encoding • Formerly generated

    code included both magic comment and force_encoding I wanted to skip fetching __ENCODING__ and calling #force_encoding
  47. ERB optimization idea 3: skip force encoding • To remove

    it, we need to utilize magic comment properly • String.new • It’s not affected by magic comment since it’s not a literal • '' (two single quotes) • It’s affected by magic comment since it’s a literal
  48. ERB optimization idea 3: skip force encoding • ruby/ruby#1147 This

    patch doesn’t increase compiling cost .dup is to support frozen_string_literal support
  49. ERB optimization idea 3: skip force encoding • Possible effects:

    • Gem that uses ERB#src as part of string eval to define method may return wrong encoding if non-script-encoding one is given to ERB • My opinion: • If you modify the result of ERB#src or depend on its internals, own your risk and fix it in third-party layer • If you use ERB#result or #def_method, it won’t be broken • In that case, you can pull magic comment to the first of evaluated string. I’ll fix it if I find such case.
  50. • For a long time, I’ve wanted to freeze string

    literals generated by ERB • But I couldn’t do that without increasing compiling cost… ERB optimization idea 4: opt_str_uminus For multiple newlines, it needs concatenation here and it’s slow
  51. • Unary plus/minus operators are introduced at Ruby 2.3 (String#+@,

    String#-@) • And String#-@ is optimized like String#freeze at trunk (Ruby 2.5) on 2017/03/27 • ERB can immediately use it because it’s standard library!!! ERB optimization idea 4: opt_str_uminus
  52. ERB optimization idea 4: opt_str_uminus No compilation overhead because we

    can put the operator here String allocation is reduced, so it’s faster
  53. ERB optimization idea 5: str_uplus If string is not frozen,

    String#+@ skips rb_str_dup. So it’s faster than String#dup if not frozen. Very convenient!!!
  54. ERB optimization result (compiling & rendering) About 1.000s → 0.700s,

    1.43x faster in total of compiling & rendering No performance regression in total of compiling & rendering
  55. ERB optimization result (compiling & rendering) Not only Feature#12333 (String#concat),

    but also Feature#11936 (I proposed) was bad for compiling performance. The bottleneck of 2.4’s large drawback is actually Feature#11936 and I fixed it as Bug#12074. For compiling, I just did match pomp. Ruby 2.4’s features were bad for compiling, but it’s fixed at 2.5
  56. ERB optimization result (rendering only) ruby/benchmark/bm_erb_render.rb (Ruby 2.5.0 is trunk:

    1542ab670e) w/ Erubi: Erubi::Engine.new(data).src, Erubis: Erubis::Eruby.new(data).src 5JNFUPSFOEFSNUJNFT T      ERB Ruby 2.5.0 Erubis 2.7.0 Ruby 2.5.0 ERB Ruby 2.3.4 Erubi 1.6.0 Ruby 2.5.0 ERB Ruby 2.4.1      In Ruby 2.5, ERB became the fastest erb implementation in the world, and 2.21x faster than Ruby 2.4 (actually, 1.12x faster than Ruby 2.3)
