Yeah, me too! There should be an update of libapt-front soonish, once we finish implementing the different way of running debtags update. > > output 18910ms 7740ms 50ms > What does this output? Only the package names and the tags, or also the > package information? It outputs the entire contents of the collection (item names and their tags). Those numbers are very high, and that's because the benchmarks calls that function 500 times, and there are 10000 items in the collection, which is quite a lot. The high numbers compared to TDBIndexer are (IMO) overhead due to converting int IDs to strings; but that function isn't the kind of function you'd call in a very inner loop, so I wouldn't bother optimizing it too much. > > outputHavingTags 1330ms 90ms 200ms > What does this output? Packages having a given set of tags? Yes: like output, but only output those items who have at least all the tags in a given set. > Which tags did you choose for your tests? The selection of tags might > influence the test results. I create a random dataset through questionable use of possibly badly implemented statistical distributions, but I make it deterministic by calling srand with a fixed value at the beginning of the benchmark. The idea is to generate a distribution where few items have lots of tags and normally items have 5 or 6 tags, and where few tags are really popular and normally tags are used every now and then. But I'm dead rusty with simulation code, and I wouldn't mind someone giving a look at that code (svn+ssh://svn.debian.org/svn/debtags/tagcoll/trunk/bench/collection.cc) Ciao, Enrico -- GPG key: 1024D/797EBFAB 2000-12-05 Enrico Zini <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
