Changelog category (leave one):

  • Performance Improvement

Changelog entry (a user-readable short description of the changes that goes to CHANGELOG.md):

An improvement which takes place when cache is full and there are big reads. Also improves memory usage of the cache in case of big reads.

Successful checks
Check nameDescriptionStatus
AST fuzzerRuns randomly generated queries to catch program errors. The build type is optionally given in parenthesis. If it fails, ask a maintainer for help✅ success
ClickHouse build checkBuilds ClickHouse in various configurations for use in further steps. You have to fix the builds that fail. Build logs often has enough information to fix the error, but you might have to reproduce the failure locally. The cmake options can be found in the build log, grepping for cmake. Use these options and follow the general build process✅ success
Compatibility checkChecks that clickhouse binary runs on distributions with old libc versions. If it fails, ask a maintainer for help✅ success
Docker image for serversThe check to build and optionally push the mentioned image to docker hub✅ success
Fast testNormally this is the first check that is ran for a PR. It builds ClickHouse and runs most of stateless functional tests, omitting some. If it fails, further checks are not started until it is fixed. Look at the report to see which tests fail, then reproduce the failure locally as described here✅ success
Flaky testsChecks if new added or modified tests are flaky by running them repeatedly, in parallel, with more randomization. Functional tests are run 100 times with address sanitizer, and additional randomization of thread scheduling. Integrational tests are run up to 10 times. If at least once a new test has failed, or was too long, this check will be red. We don't allow flaky tests, read the doc✅ success
Install packagesChecks that the built packages are installable in a clear environment✅ success
Mergeable CheckChecks if all other necessary checks are successful✅ success
Performance ComparisonMeasure changes in query performance. The performance test report is described in detail here. In square brackets are the optional part/total tests✅ success
Push to DockerhubThe check for building and pushing the CI related docker images to docker hub✅ success
SQLTestThere's no description for the check yet, please add it to tests/ci/ci_config.py:CHECK_DESCRIPTIONS✅ success
SQLancerFuzzing tests that detect logical bugs with SQLancer tool✅ success
SqllogicRun clickhouse on the sqllogic test set against sqlite and checks that all statements are passed✅ success
Stateful testsRuns stateful functional tests for ClickHouse binaries built in various configurations -- release, debug, with sanitizers, etc✅ success
Stress testRuns stateless functional tests concurrently from several clients to detect concurrency-related errors✅ success
Style CheckRuns a set of checks to keep the code style clean. If some of tests failed, see the related log from the report✅ success
Unit testsRuns the unit tests for different release types✅ success
Upgrade checkRuns stress tests on server version from last release and then tries to upgrade it to the version from the PR. It checks if the new server can successfully startup without any errors, crashes or sanitizer asserts✅ success
Check nameDescriptionStatus
CI runningA meta-check that indicates the running CI. Normally, it's in success or pending state. The failed status indicates some problems with the PR⏳ pending
Integration testsThe integration tests report. In parenthesis the package type is given, and in square brackets are the optional part/total tests❌ failure
Stateless testsRuns stateless functional tests for ClickHouse binaries built in various configurations -- release, debug, with sanitizers, etc❌ failure

The goal of this PR is to limit the output of getOrSet method, e.g. we request a certain range and get a holder of file segments from it. But if the range is big, we could request really a lot of file segments. Here we can have two problems as a result:

  1. We put an unlimited number of file segments into FileSegmentsHolder, e.g. make them unreleasable, but we increase priority of a file segment in the priority queue only right before we process it, and given that file segments from FileSegmentsHolder are processed one by one, there can be a lot of file segments which are unreleasable but still on the lowest part of the priority queue, e.g. when cache is full and we want to release something, we will encounter those unreleasable file segments at the lowest priority part of the queue. This slows down eviction especially because of the fact that the number of such file segment is unlimited.

  2. It often happens that we request a big range but do not read it fully (because of seeks, LIMIT in query, etc). getOrSet returns a continuous range of file segments without holes, e.g. we create empty file segments on the place of uncached holes and stores them as potential future downloaded file segment in cache. So if we do not download them after that - they must be removed from cache. But here in case of very big queries we might end up with a huge number of unused zero size file segments which need to be removed. I have seen a case where there were more than 10 thousand such zero size unused and removed from cache file segments, in a single query. What makes it a bit worse - when we erase a file segment, even though its size is known to be 0, we nevertheless check if the corresponding file on the filesystem does not exist. Which makes this removal not as cheap as it could seem.
