From 318a284906f0e594f7c70c6fe72f234923fb6153 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Max Kellermann Date: Fri, 29 Aug 2008 09:38:37 +0200 Subject: tag: added a pool for tag items The new source tag_pool.c manages a pool of reference counted tag_item objects. This is used to merge tag items of the same type and value, saving lots of memory. Formerly, only the value itself was pooled, wasting memory for all the pointers and tag_item structs. The following results were measured with massif. Started MPD on amd64, typed "mpc", no song being played. My music database contains 35k tagged songs. The results are what massif reports as "peak". 0.13.2: total 14,131,392; useful 11,408,972; extra 2,722,420 eric: total 18,370,696; useful 15,648,182; extra 2,722,514 mk f34f694: total 15,833,952; useful 13,111,470; extra 2,722,482 mk now: total 12,837,632; useful 10,626,383; extra 2,211,249 This patch set saves 20% memory, and does a good job in reducing heap fragmentation. --- src/tag_pool.h | 31 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 31 insertions(+) create mode 100644 src/tag_pool.h (limited to 'src/tag_pool.h') diff --git a/src/tag_pool.h b/src/tag_pool.h new file mode 100644 index 000000000..4f063d1ed --- /dev/null +++ b/src/tag_pool.h @@ -0,0 +1,31 @@ +/* the Music Player Daemon (MPD) + * Copyright (C) 2008 Max Kellermann + * This project's homepage is: http://www.musicpd.org + * + * This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify + * it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by + * the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or + * (at your option) any later version. + * + * This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, + * but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of + * MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
