xdiff: reduce indent heuristic overhead...
xdiff: reduce indent heuristic overhead Adds some threshold to avoid expensive cases, like: ``` #!python open('a', 'w').write(" \n" * 1000000) open('b', 'w').write(" \n" * 1000001) ``` The indent heuristic is O(N * 20) (N = 1000000) for the above case, and makes diff much slower. Before this patch (system git 2.14.2): ``` git diff --no-indent-heuristic a b 0.21s user 0.03s system 100% cpu 0.239 total git diff --indent-heuristic a b 0.77s user 0.02s system 99% cpu 0.785 total ``` After this patch (git 2fc74f41, with xdiffi.c patched): ``` # with the changed xdiffi.c git diff --indent-heuristic a b 0.16s user 0.01s system 90% cpu 0.188 total git diff --no-indent-heuristic a b 0.18s user 0.01s system 99% cpu 0.192 total ``` Now turning on indent-heuristic has no visible impact on performance.
