Slide info is parsed and applied on the main thread, below the
SharedCache
constructor, when a shared cache is opened. Time spent applying the slide is time that the main thread is blocked.These changes eliminate some unnecessary overhead so what work remains is dominated by kernel work (paging in data, copying pages when the first modification is made).
The changes are:
ReadULong
rather than the variable-lengthRead
method. The compiler isn't able to eliminate the call tomemcpy
in the variable-lengthRead
function, and the function call overhead is noticeable given the small size of the read and number of times it is called.MappingInfo
. Slide info is applied for a single file at a time so there's no reason to track the file it belongs to. This removes unnecesssary reference counting on thestd::shared_ptr
that holds theMMappedFileAccessor
.
