perf(bench): add a fixed-iteration Ir/op gate for the hot paths (LAB-7802) - #106
Conversation
…7802) Wall clock cannot gate a 1% CPU regression on a shared machine, and the Criterion suite picks its iteration count from wall time, so its total under valgrind cannot be divided by a known count. benches/perf_ir.rs runs each case in its own process under cachegrind, once with 1,000 calls and once with none, after the same setup and one warm-up call: Ir/op = (Ir[1000] - Ir[0]) / 1000. Cases cover ByteStorage store/retrieve, the envelope pre-scan, AES-256-GCM encrypt/decrypt, the keyring decrypt (HKDF per call), the tenant keyring decrypt, and HKDF, at 64 B, 1 KiB and 64 KiB. `make perf-ir` compares against benches/perf_ir_baselines.json (fail at +1%, warn from +0.2%); `make perf-ir-update` ratchets budgets down, never up without --allow-increase. Two runs of one build agree exactly; between builds, heap alignment moves encrypt/1024 by up to 0.19% and every other case by at most 0.02%. The target is `bench = false`, so a plain `cargo bench` does not need valgrind, and `clippy --all-targets` still compiles it. hot_path's realistic payload generator moves to benches/common so both targets measure the same bytes. No new dependency.

…802) A budget set gates only the instrument that recorded it. Two ways let `--update` mix instruments: - Budgets were keyed by architecture and OS only. A build with `-C target-cpu=x86-64-v3` measures hkdf at 23,913 Ir/op against the default build's 29,047, so ratcheting from it lowered the shared set and then failed every default build of unchanged code. The key now appends any compiled-in CPU features, so such a build records its own set. - `--update` stamped the current rustc and valgrind on every run, including a `--case` subset and a run whose regression stayed over budget, so budgets it never measured carried the new versions and the mismatch note went silent. On a toolchain other than the recorded one, `--update` now refuses unless it re-records every case with `--allow-increase`.

make perf-ir: a per-op instruction count (Ir/op) for each hot path, a committed budget per case, and a gate that fails at +1% and ratchets budgets down. Closes LAB-7802.Why
Wall clock on a shared machine moves by far more than 1% between identical runs, so it cannot gate a small CPU regression. The Criterion suite (
hot_path) also picks its iteration count from wall time, so its total under valgrind cannot be divided by a known count. A fixed iteration count under cachegrind is exact.What
benches/perf_ir.rsruns each case in its own process undervalgrind --tool=cachegrind --cache-sim=no. It runs once with 1,000 calls and once with none, after the same setup and one warm-up call, soIr/op = (Ir[1000] - Ir[0]) / 1000and process start, setup and exit cancel. The measured process gets an empty environment.store,retrieve,prescan,encrypt,decrypt,keyring_decryptandtenant_keyring_decrypt, each at 64 B, 1 KiB and 64 KiB, plushkdf, which takes no payload.benches/perf_ir_baselines.json, keyed by architecture and OS, with the rustc and valgrind versions they were recorded with.
