(Improvements) Rune operations optimization by pl752 · Pull Request #1252 · FirebirdSQL/NETProvider

pl752 · 2025-12-29T07:07:41Z

Decided to split up my previous pull request (#1247) to multiple PRs due to it having set of changes too broad in my opinion. Ran tests as usual for fb3 server and embedded. Updated to current master branch state.

TLDR: Small set of optimizations, improving speed and alloc volumes of string methods tenfold (up to 3x if including I/O and real db engine for select queries containing char100 field in my case) and also including ability to better utilize modern processors SIMD instructions for BMP-only (single char per rune) strings.

Synthetic (serverless, no I/O) benchmarks

Implemented rune ops:

Synthetic benchmarks demonstrate order of magnitude (or two in case of BMP-only and AVX512 in theory) improvements for methods themselves, also count and span truncation itself are alloc-free now.

Practical benchmarks (3 int and 1 char100 columns, real I/O with fb3 server on localhost and nvme)

In practice differences are still noticiable, up to 3x in terms of speed, tenfold in memory volume and ~100x in allocation events reduction can be observed (profiling of real run, not in benchmark).

UPD: Fixed duplicated enumeration and found out, I somehow missed few places of old way of counting while splitting commits

Hey @pl752! Great work!

I’ve been working on a refactor for this project’s benchmarks on #1203

Do you think we could combine some of your benchmark changes with it?

I’d really appreciate any thoughts or suggestions you have 😄.

… leverage simd for BMP-only strings

pl752 · 2026-05-21T09:54:38Z

@fdcastel Hello, I am sorry that I haven't replied initially, I was busy and forgot about the notification. I unfortunately don't have any particular suggestions about benchmarks, because my tests are either written specific to my project queries or they are very local synthetic tests of the thing I was working with and not very representative. I appreciate your changes for benchmarks as currently there is a lack of convenient tools of performance assesment here.

pl752 · 2026-05-21T09:55:42Z

Also recent force push was due to addition of gpg signatures to my commits.

fdcastel · 2026-05-23T22:27:00Z

@pl752 two minor suggestions for this PR (found while investigating #1272):

After the PR, EnumerateRunesToChars (Extensions.cs) is dead code -- could be removed.
PR adds classic this ReadOnlySpan<char> extension methods; current master refactored Extensions.cs to C# extension(...) blocks.

pl752 · 2026-05-24T11:54:15Z

@fdcastel Thank you, applied your suggestions (new syntax and dead helper removal), I think PR is ready for review
