perf: add command to benchmark bundle reading...
perf: add command to benchmark bundle reading Upcoming commits will be refactoring bundle2 I/O code. This commit establishes a `hg perfbundleread` command that measures how long it takes to read a bundle using various mechanisms. As a baseline, here's output from an uncompressed bundle1 bundle of my Firefox repo (7,098,622,890 bytes): ! read(8k) ! wall 0.763481 comb 0.760000 user 0.160000 sys 0.600000 (best of 6) ! read(16k) ! wall 0.644512 comb 0.640000 user 0.110000 sys 0.530000 (best of 16) ! read(32k) ! wall 0.581172 comb 0.590000 user 0.060000 sys 0.530000 (best of 18) ! read(128k) ! wall 0.535183 comb 0.530000 user 0.010000 sys 0.520000 (best of 19) ! cg1 deltaiter() ! wall 0.873500 comb 0.880000 user 0.840000 sys 0.040000 (best of 12) ! cg1 getchunks() ! wall 6.283797 comb 6.270000 user 5.570000 sys 0.700000 (best of 3) ! cg1 read(8k) ! wall 1.097173 comb 1.100000 user 0.400000 sys 0.700000 (best of 10) ! cg1 read(16k) ! wall 0.810750 comb 0.800000 user 0.200000 sys 0.600000 (best of 13) ! cg1 read(32k) ! wall 0.671215 comb 0.670000 user 0.110000 sys 0.560000 (best of 15) ! cg1 read(128k) ! wall 0.597857 comb 0.600000 user 0.020000 sys 0.580000 (best of 15) And from an uncompressed bundle2 bundle (6,070,036,163 bytes): ! read(8k) ! wall 0.676997 comb 0.680000 user 0.160000 sys 0.520000 (best of 15) ! read(16k) ! wall 0.592706 comb 0.590000 user 0.080000 sys 0.510000 (best of 17) ! read(32k) ! wall 0.529395 comb 0.530000 user 0.050000 sys 0.480000 (best of 16) ! read(128k) ! wall 0.491270 comb 0.490000 user 0.010000 sys 0.480000 (best of 19) ! bundle2 forwardchunks() ! wall 2.997131 comb 2.990000 user 2.270000 sys 0.720000 (best of 4) ! bundle2 iterparts() ! wall 12.247197 comb 10.670000 user 8.170000 sys 2.500000 (best of 3) ! bundle2 part seek() ! wall 11.761675 comb 10.500000 user 8.240000 sys 2.260000 (best of 3) ! bundle2 part read(8k) ! wall 9.116163 comb 9.110000 user 8.240000 sys 0.870000 (best of 3) ! bundle2 part read(16k) ! wall 8.984362 comb 8.970000 user 8.110000 sys 0.860000 (best of 3) ! bundle2 part read(32k) ! wall 8.758364 comb 8.740000 user 7.860000 sys 0.880000 (best of 3) ! bundle2 part read(128k) ! wall 8.749040 comb 8.730000 user 7.830000 sys 0.900000 (best of 3) We already see some interesting data. Notably that bundle2 has significant overhead compared to bundle1. This matters for e.g. stream clone bundles, which can be applied at >1Gbps.

Most Mercurial commands accept various flags.
Flag names
==========
Flags for each command are listed in :hg:`help` for that command.
Additionally, some flags, such as --repository, are global and can be used with
any command - those are seen in :hg:`help -v`, and can be specified before or
after the command.
Every flag has at least a long name, such as --repository. Some flags may also
have a short one-letter name, such as the equivalent -R. Using the short or long
name is equivalent and has the same effect.
Flags that have a short name can also be bundled together - for instance, to
specify both --edit (short -e) and --interactive (short -i), one could use::
hg commit -ei
If any of the bundled flags takes a value (i.e. is not a boolean), it must be
last, followed by the value::
hg commit -im 'Message'
Flag types
==========
Mercurial command-line flags can be strings, numbers, booleans, or lists of
strings.
Specifying flag values
======================
The following syntaxes are allowed, assuming a flag 'flagname' with short name
'f'::
--flagname=foo
--flagname foo
-f foo
-ffoo
This syntax applies to all non-boolean flags (strings, numbers or lists).
Specifying boolean flags
========================
Boolean flags do not take a value parameter. To specify a boolean, use the flag
name to set it to true, or the same name prefixed with 'no-' to set it to
false::
hg commit --interactive
hg commit --no-interactive
Specifying list flags
=====================
List flags take multiple values. To specify them, pass the flag multiple times::
hg files --include mercurial --include tests
Setting flag defaults
=====================
In order to set a default value for a flag in an hgrc file, it is recommended to
use aliases::
[alias]
commit = commit --interactive
For more information on hgrc files, see :hg:`help config`.
Overriding flags on the command line
====================================
If the same non-list flag is specified multiple times on the command line, the
latest specification is used::
hg commit -m "Ignored value" -m "Used value"
This includes the use of aliases - e.g., if one has::
[alias]
committemp = commit -m "Ignored value"
then the following command will override that -m::
hg committemp -m "Used value"
Overriding flag defaults
========================
Every flag has a default value, and you may also set your own defaults in hgrc
as described above.
Except for list flags, defaults can be overridden on the command line simply by
specifying the flag in that location.
Hidden flags
============
Some flags are not shown in a command's help by default - specifically, those
that are deemed to be experimental, deprecated or advanced. To show all flags,
add the --verbose flag for the help command::
hg help --verbose commit
