Great job narrowing this down Jay!! Feels like we are pretty close to
the culprit here.

Further narrowing down has focused on the revision series r982.1.1
through r982.1.5. Attached is the diff for that, and somewhere in there
is the regression.
Note that the goal here is not necessarily to undo Padraig's work on
standardizing Bitset, but to look into why/where specifically we're
seeing that regression on concurrency loads >128. Remember, no shame,
no blame, many hands make light work. :)
Eyeballs please! :)

A benchmark of 971.1.62 did *not* show the regression, so somewhere in
the bitset patch is our regression. I'll be digging further down into
that subtree shortly, but it's good to know where the regression has
been introduced.
Cheers!

Hi!
A few places to look:
971.1.47 (replication)
Hi again! OK, so I had to make a few quick changes to the automation
suite to support non-integer revisions, but those have been made and I
am happy (and relieved) to report that replication (r971.1.47) is NOT
the cause of the regression... yeah, Jay! \o/

971.1.63 (first introduction of Bitmap)
Running this rev now...it may turn out to be the cause, and if so, I
will dig down into Padraig and Monty's Bitmap changes to see which
specific revision contains the culprit :)
/me loves automated benching...

Hi!
Somewhere in r990, we have had a significant regression, most evident in
concurrency levels greater than 128 concurrent connections:

The above TPS column is the average of 3 iterations of a readonly
sysbench workload for the revision/concurrency pair.
Unfortunately, r990 was a very big revision with a lot of changes:
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~drizzle-developers/drizzle/development/revision/990
This makes it very difficult to tell what precisely has caused the
regression. I'd like to suggest that going forward, we really try to
keep the size of merges and commits small so that it is easier to tell
where regressions occur.
Anyone interested in looking through the commit diff above is welcome to
suggest ideas where regression may have occurred...but it might be, like
Brian says, death by a thousand cuts...
Cheers!
Jay
