Compiler instrumentation shows that the cap of the stores slice in the storeOrder function is almost always 64 or less. Since the slice does not escape, pre-allocating on the stack a 64-elements one greatly reduces the number of allocations performed by the function. name old time/op new time/op delta Template 289ms ± 5% 283ms ± 3% -1.99% (p=0.000 n=19+20) Unicode 140ms ± 6% 136ms ± 6% -2.61% (p=0.021 n=19+20) GoTypes 915ms ± 2% 895ms ± 2% -2.24% (p=0.000 n=19+20) Compiler 4.15s ± 1% 4.04s ± 2% -2.73% (p=0.000 n=20+20) SSA 10.0s ± 1% 9.8s ± 2% -2.13% (p=0.000 n=20+20) Flate 189ms ± 6% 186ms ± 4% -1.75% (p=0.028 n=19+20) GoParser 229ms ± 5% 224ms ± 4% -2.25% (p=0.001 n=20+19) Reflect 584ms ± 2% 573ms ± 3% -1.83% (p=0.000 n=18+20) Tar 265ms ± 3% 261ms ± 3% -1.33% (p=0.021 n=20+20) XML 328ms ± 2% 321ms ± 2% -2.11% (p=0.000 n=20+20) name old user-time/op new user-time/op delta Template 408ms ± 4% 400ms ± 4% -1.98% (p=0.006 n=19+20) Unicode 216ms ± 9% 216ms ± 7% ~ (p=0.883 n=20+20) GoTypes 1.25s ± 1% 1.23s ± 3% -1.32% (p=0.002 n=19+20) Compiler 5.77s ± 1% 5.69s ± 2% -1.47% (p=0.000 n=18+19) SSA 14.6s ± 5% 14.1s ± 4% -3.45% (p=0.000 n=20+20) Flate 252ms ± 7% 251ms ± 7% ~ (p=0.659 n=20+20) GoParser 314ms ± 5% 310ms ± 5% ~ (p=0.165 n=20+20) Reflect 780ms ± 2% 769ms ± 3% -1.34% (p=0.004 n=19+18) Tar 365ms ± 7% 367ms ± 5% ~ (p=0.841 n=20+20) XML 439ms ± 4% 432ms ± 4% -1.45% (p=0.043 n=20+20) name old alloc/op new alloc/op delta Template 38.9MB ± 0% 38.8MB ± 0% -0.26% (p=0.000 n=19+20) Unicode 29.0MB ± 0% 29.0MB ± 0% -0.02% (p=0.001 n=20+19) GoTypes 115MB ± 0% 115MB ± 0% -0.31% (p=0.000 n=20+20) Compiler 492MB ± 0% 490MB ± 0% -0.41% (p=0.000 n=20+19) SSA 1.40GB ± 0% 1.39GB ± 0% -0.48% (p=0.000 n=20+20) Flate 24.9MB ± 0% 24.9MB ± 0% -0.24% (p=0.000 n=20+20) GoParser 30.9MB ± 0% 30.8MB ± 0% -0.39% (p=0.000 n=20+20) Reflect 77.1MB ± 0% 76.8MB ± 0% -0.32% (p=0.000 n=17+20) Tar 39.1MB ± 0% 39.0MB ± 0% -0.23% (p=0.000 n=20+20) XML 44.7MB ± 0% 44.6MB ± 0% -0.30% (p=0.000 n=20+18) name old allocs/op new allocs/op delta Template 385k ± 0% 382k ± 0% -0.99% (p=0.000 n=20+19) Unicode 336k ± 0% 336k ± 0% -0.08% (p=0.000 n=19+17) GoTypes 1.20M ± 0% 1.18M ± 0% -1.11% (p=0.000 n=20+18) Compiler 4.66M ± 0% 4.59M ± 0% -1.42% (p=0.000 n=19+20) SSA 11.6M ± 0% 11.5M ± 0% -1.49% (p=0.000 n=20+20) Flate 237k ± 0% 235k ± 0% -1.00% (p=0.000 n=20+19) GoParser 319k ± 0% 315k ± 0% -1.12% (p=0.000 n=20+20) Reflect 960k ± 0% 952k ± 0% -0.92% (p=0.000 n=18+20) Tar 394k ± 0% 390k ± 0% -0.87% (p=0.000 n=20+20) XML 418k ± 0% 413k ± 0% -1.18% (p=0.000 n=20+20) Change-Id: I01b9f45b161379967d7a52e23f39ac30dd90edb0 Reviewed-on: https://go-review.googlesource.com/104415 Reviewed-by: Brad Fitzpatrick <bradfitz@golang.org> Reviewed-by: Cherry Zhang <cherryyz@google.com>
