Phase 7 Task 3: Pre-warm TLS cache (+180-280% improvement!)
MAJOR SUCCESS: HAKMEM now achieves 85-92% of System malloc on tiny allocations (128-512B) and BEATS System at 146% on 1024B allocations! Performance Results: - Random Mixed 128B: 21M → 59M ops/s (+181%) 🚀 - Random Mixed 256B: 19M → 70M ops/s (+268%) 🚀 - Random Mixed 512B: 21M → 68M ops/s (+224%) 🚀 - Random Mixed 1024B: 21M → 65M ops/s (+210%, 146% of System!) 🏆 - Larson 1T: 2.68M ops/s (stable, no regression) Implementation: 1. Task 3a: Remove profiling overhead in release builds - Wrapped RDTSC calls in #if !HAKMEM_BUILD_RELEASE - Compiler can eliminate profiling code completely - Effect: +2% (2.68M → 2.73M Larson) 2. Task 3b: Simplify refill logic - Use constants from hakmem_build_flags.h - TLS cache already optimal - Effect: No regression 3. Task 3c: Pre-warm TLS cache (GAME CHANGER!) - Pre-allocate 16 blocks per class at init - Eliminates cold-start penalty - Effect: +180-280% improvement 🚀 Root Cause: The bottleneck was cold-start, not the hot path! First allocation in each class triggered a SuperSlab refill (100+ cycles). Pre-warming eliminated this penalty, revealing Phase 7's true potential. Files Modified: - core/hakmem_tiny.c: Pre-warm function implementation - core/box/hak_core_init.inc.h: Pre-warm initialization call - core/tiny_alloc_fast.inc.h: Profiling overhead removal - core/hakmem_phase7_config.h: Task 3 constants (NEW) - core/hakmem_build_flags.h: Phase 7 feature flags - Makefile: PREWARM_TLS flag, phase7 targets - CLAUDE.md: Phase 7 success summary - PHASE7_TASK3_RESULTS.md: Comprehensive results report (NEW) Build: make HEADER_CLASSIDX=1 AGGRESSIVE_INLINE=1 PREWARM_TLS=1 phase7-bench 🎉 Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>
