Perfloop Agent updated CASSANDRA-21492:
---------------------------------------
Description:
h3. Problem
On every memtable write carrying a range tombstone,
{{BTreePartitionUpdater.merge}} -> {{DeletionInfo.mutableCopy()}} ->
{{RangeTombstoneList.copy()}} unconditionally {{Arrays.copyOf}}s all four
parallel arrays ({{starts}}, {{ends}}, {{markedAts}},
{{delTimesUnsignedIntegers}}) regardless of insert position. N successive
range-tombstone merges into one unflushed partition therefore pay 1+2+...+N =
*O(N^2^)* array copying and discarded allocation on the mutation write path.
This bites under range-DELETE-heavy or superseding-partition-delete traffic
concentrated on a single partition between flushes.
h3. Fix
Make {{copy()}} copy-on-write: the copy shares the four backing arrays with the
original and both are marked {{shared}}; every in-place mutation ({{add}},
{{addAll}}, {{updateAllTimestamp}}, {{updateAllTimestampAndLocalDeletionTime}},
{{insertFrom}}) calls {{isolate()}} to reallocate the arrays before its first
write. Amortized *O(N^2^) -> O(N)*.
h3. Measured impact
JMH {{AverageTime}}, co-measured baseline vs patched on the same benchmarks:
||Benchmark||Baseline||Patched||Reduction||
|RangeTombstoneListBench.benchCopyOnly (size=1000)|~2935 ns/op|~7.8
ns/op|~99.7% (O(1) vs O(N))|
|RangeTombstoneListBench.benchCopyOnly (size=10)|~48 ns/op|~7.6 ns/op|~84%|
|RangeTombstoneListBench.benchCopyAndAdd (guardrails)| | |~33-38% faster|
|allocation, N=4096|421,953,645 B/op|2,475,362 B/op|-99.4%|
The growth curve confirms O(N^2^) -> O(N).
h3. Correctness
* Full {{RangeTombstoneListTest}} passes, including a new
{{testCopyIndependence}} that asserts isolation across every mutating pathway
(mutations to either the original or the copy never corrupt the other's shared
arrays).
* A differential stress harness -- the candidate vs a true deep-copy reference
run against identical randomized {{add}}/{{copy}}/{{addAll}}/{{updateAll}} op
sequences over deeply-shared lists -- ran ~300k ops with zero divergence.
* Concurrency is unchanged: {{BTreePartitionUpdater.merge}} mutates a
thread-local copy (isolate-on-write), while the live shared list is only read
before a new holder is CAS-published.
h3. Code
Reference implementation + benchmarks on a {{trunk}} snapshot (public fork).
The full patch is the *diff below* -- not any single commit (the branch tip is
only a microbenchmark add):
* Full patch (baseline..patched, RangeTombstoneList.java + the
copy-independence test + the JMH microbenchmarks): [compare
