Phase 83-1 + Allocator Comparison: Switch dispatch fixed (NO-GO +0.32%), PROFILE correction, SCORECARD update
Key changes: - Phase 83-1: Switch dispatch fixed mode (tiny_inline_slots_switch_dispatch_fixed_box) - NO-GO (marginal +0.32%, branch reduction negligible) Reason: lazy-init pattern already optimal, Phase 78-1 pattern shows diminishing returns - Allocator comparison baseline update (10-run SSOT, WS=400, ITERS=20M): tcmalloc: 115.26M (92.33% of mimalloc) jemalloc: 97.39M (77.96% of mimalloc) system: 85.20M (68.24% of mimalloc) mimalloc: 124.82M (baseline) - hakmem PROFILE correction: scripts/run_mixed_10_cleanenv.sh + run_allocator_quick_matrix.sh PROFILE explicitly set to MIXED_TINYV3_C7_SAFE for hakmem measurements Result: baseline stabilized to 55.53M (44.46% of mimalloc) Previous unstable measurement (35.57M) was due to profile leak - Documentation: * PERFORMANCE_TARGETS_SCORECARD.md: Reference allocators + M1/M2 milestone status * PHASE83_1_SWITCH_DISPATCH_FIXED_RESULTS.md: Phase 83-1 analysis (NO-GO) * ALLOCATOR_COMPARISON_QUICK_RUNBOOK.md: Quick comparison procedure * ALLOCATOR_COMPARISON_SSOT.md: Detailed SSOT methodology - M2 milestone status: 44.46% (target 55%, gap -10.54pp) - structural improvements needed 🤖 Generated with Claude Code Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

# Phase 80-1: Inline Slots Switch Dispatch — Results
|
||||
|
||||
## Goal
|
||||
|
||||
Reduce per-op comparison/branch overhead in inline-slots routing for the hot classes by replacing the sequential `if (class_idx==X)` chain with a `switch (class_idx)` dispatch when enabled.
|
||||
|
||||
Scope:
|
||||
- Alloc hot path: `core/box/tiny_front_hot_box.h`
|
||||
- Free legacy fallback: `core/box/tiny_legacy_fallback_box.h`
|
||||
|
||||
## Change Summary
|
||||
|
||||
- New env gate box: `core/box/tiny_inline_slots_switch_dispatch_box.h`
|
||||
- ENV: `HAKMEM_TINY_INLINE_SLOTS_SWITCHDISPATCH=0/1` (default 0)
|
||||
- When enabled, uses switch dispatch for C4/C5/C6 (and excludes C2/C3 work, which is NO-GO).
|
||||
- Reversible: set `HAKMEM_TINY_INLINE_SLOTS_SWITCHDISPATCH=0` to restore the original if-chain.
|
||||
|
||||
## A/B (Mixed SSOT, 10-run)
|
||||
|
||||
Workload:
|
||||
- `ITERS=20000000`, `WS=400`, `RUNS=10`
|
||||
- `scripts/run_mixed_10_cleanenv.sh`
|
||||
|
||||
Results:
|
||||
|
||||
Baseline (SWITCHDISPATCH=0, if-chain):
|
||||
- Mean: `51.98M ops/s`
|
||||
|
||||
Treatment (SWITCHDISPATCH=1, switch):
|
||||
- Mean: `52.84M ops/s`
|
||||
|
||||
Delta:
|
||||
- `+1.65%` ✅ **GO** (threshold +1.0%)
|
||||
|
||||
## perf stat (single-run sanity)
|
||||
|
||||
Key deltas (treatment vs baseline):
|
||||
- Cycles: `-1.6%`
|
||||
- Instructions: `-1.5%`
|
||||
- Branches: `-2.9%` ✅
|
||||
- Cache-misses: `-6.7%`
|
||||
- Throughput (single): `+3.7%`
|
||||
|
||||
Interpretation:
|
||||
- Switch dispatch removes repeated failed comparisons for the hot inline-slot classes, reducing branches/instructions without causing cache-miss explosions.
|
||||
|
||||
## Promotion
|
||||
|
||||
Promoted to Mixed SSOT defaults:
|
||||
- `core/bench_profile.h`: `HAKMEM_TINY_INLINE_SLOTS_SWITCHDISPATCH=1`
|
||||
- `scripts/run_mixed_10_cleanenv.sh`: `HAKMEM_TINY_INLINE_SLOTS_SWITCHDISPATCH=1`
|
||||
|
||||
Rollback:
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
export HAKMEM_TINY_INLINE_SLOTS_SWITCHDISPATCH=0
|
||||
```
