Dune watch (and probably dune output in general) causes significant GPU power draw due to unnecessary idle refreshes #7184

Expected Behavior

Do nothing while idle.

Actual Behavior

If I have a crappily implemented terminal open (aka vscode's), dune idling will use up ~20W of my GPU. Playing around a little bit, this seems to be because dune is constantly refreshing the terminal.

However the output is being rendered, I believe this would be fixed by short-circuiting if nothing has changed.

Specifications

  • Version of dune (output of dune --version): 3.6.1
  • Operating system (distribution and version): linux

Does this also happen with Dune 3.5? We tweaked how the console messages are displayed recently, so I am interested in whether or not it is a regression or a general performance issue.

3.6/3.7 seems to have actually improved things a little. Idling, my GPU uses 21W. With dune 3.5 on the Success, waiting for filesystem changes... message, power usage jumps around between 31-42W. With 3.7, it's mostly stable at 28W with a bit of wandering up to 30 and one spike up to 40.

OK then I think it is safe to say that this was a preexisting problem. #7186 should fix this issue.

Thanks for being so quick @rgrinberg!

CHANGES:

- When a rule's action is interrupted, delete any leftover directory targets.
  This is consistent with how we treat file targets. (@rgrinberg, 7564)

- Fix plugin loading with findlib. The functionality was broken in 3.7.0.
  (ocaml/dune#7556, @anmonteiro)

- Introduce a `public_headers` field on libraries. This field is like
  `install_c_headers`, but it allows to choose the extension and choose the
  paths for the installed headers. (ocaml/dune#7512, @rgrinberg)

- Load the host context `findlib.conf` when cross-compiling (ocaml/dune#7428, fixes
  ocaml/dune#1701, @rgrinberg, @anmonteiro)

- Resolve `ppx_runtime_libraries` in the target context when cross compiling
  (ocaml/dune#7450, fixes ocaml/dune#2794, @anmonteiro)

- Use `$PKG_CONFIG`, when set, to find the `pkg-config` binary  (ocaml/dune#7469, fixes
  ocaml/dune#2572, @anmonteiro)

- Preliminary support for Coq compiled intefaces (`.vos` files) enabled via
  `(mode vos)` in `coq.theory` stanzas. This can be used in combination with
  `dune coq top` to obtain fast re-building of dependencies (with no checking
  of proofs) prior to stepping into a file. (ocaml/dune#7406, @rlepigre)

- Fix dune crashing on MacOS in watch mode whenever `$PATH` contains `$PWD`
  (ocaml/dune#7441, fixes ocaml/dune#6907, @rgrinberg)

- Fix `dune install` when cross compiling (ocaml/dune#7410, fixes ocaml/dune#6191, @anmonteiro,
  @rizo)

- Find `pps` dependencies in the host context when cross-compiling,  (ocaml/dune#7410,
  fixes ocaml/dune#4156, @anmonteiro)

- Dune in watch mode no longer builds concurrent rules in serial (ocaml/dune#7395
  @rgrinberg, @jchavarri)

- `dune coq top` now correctly respects the project root when called from a
  subdirectory. However, absolute filenames passed to `dune coq top` are no
  longer supported (due to being buggy) (ocaml/dune#7357, fixes ocaml/dune#7344, @rlepigre and
  @Alizter)

- Added a `--no-build` option to `dune coq top` for avoiding rebuilds (ocaml/dune#7380,
  fixes ocaml/dune#7355, @Alizter)

- RPC: Ignore SIGPIPE when clients suddenly disconnect (ocaml/dune#7299, ocaml/dune#7319, fixes
  ocaml/dune#6879, @rgrinberg)

- Always clean up the UI on exit. (ocaml/dune#7271, fixes ocaml/dune#7142 @rgrinberg)

- Bootstrap: remove reliance on shell. Previously, we'd use the shell to get
  the number of processors. (ocaml/dune#7274, @rgrinberg)

- Bootstrap: correctly detect the number of processors by allowing `nproc` to be
  looked up in `$PATH` (ocaml/dune#7272, @Alizter)

- Speed up file copying on macos by using `clonefile` when available
  (@rgrinberg, ocaml/dune#7210)

- Adds support for loading plugins in toplevels (ocaml/dune#6082, fixes ocaml/dune#6081,
  @ivg, @richardlford)

- Support commands that output 8-bit and 24-bit colors in the terminal (ocaml/dune#7188,
  @Alizter)

- Speed up rule generation for libraries and executables with many modules
  (ocaml/dune#7187, @jchavarri)

- Add `--watch-exclusions` to Dune build options (ocaml/dune#7216, @jonahbeckford)

- Do not re-render UI on every frame if the UI doesn't change (ocaml/dune#7186, fix
  ocaml/dune#7184, @rgrinberg)

- Make coq_db creation in scope lazy (@ejgallego, ocaml/dune#7133)

- Non-user proccesses such as version control or config checking are now run
  silently. (ocaml/dune#6994, fixes ocaml/dune#4066, @Alizter)

- Add the `--display-separate-messages` flag to separate the error messages
  produced by commands with a blank line. (ocaml/dune#6823, fixes ocaml/dune#6158, @esope)

- Accept the Ordered Set Language for the `modes` field in `library` stanzas
  (ocaml/dune#6611, @anmonteiro).

- dune install now respects --display quiet mode (ocaml/dune#7116, fixes ocaml/dune#4573, fixes
  ocaml/dune#7106, @Alizter)

- Stub shared libraries (dllXXX_stubs.so) in Dune-installed libraries could not
  be used as dependencies of libraries in the workspace (eg when compiling to
  bytecode and/or Javascript).  This is now fixed. (ocaml/dune#7151, @nojb)

- Allow the main module of a library with `(stdlib ...)` to depend on other
  libraries (ocaml/dune#7154, @anmonteiro).

- Bytecode executables built for JSOO are linked with `-noautolink` and no
  longer depend on the shared stubs of their dependent libraries (ocaml/dune#7156, @nojb)

- Added a new user action `(concurrent )` which is like `(progn )` but runs the
  actions concurrently. (ocaml/dune#6933, @Alizter)

- Allow `(stdlib ...)` to be used with `(wrapped false)` in library stanzas
  (ocaml/dune#7139, @anmonteiro).

- Allow parallel execution of inline tests partitions (ocaml/dune#7012, @hhugo)

- Support `(link_flags ...)` in `(cinaps ...)` stanza. (ocaml/dune#7423, fixes ocaml/dune#7416,
  @nojb)

- Allow `(package ...)` in any position within `(rule ...)` stanza (ocaml/dune#7445,
  @Leonidas-from-XIV)

- Always include `opam` files in the generated `.install` file. Previously, it
  would not be included whenever `(generate_opam_files true)` was set and the
  `.install` file wasn't yet generated. (ocaml/dune#7547, @rgrinberg)

- Read `pkg-config` arguments from the `PKG_CONFIG_ARGN` environment variable
  (ocaml/dune#1492, ocaml/dune#7734, @anmonteiro)

  directory of the context. (ocaml/dune#7655, @rgrinberg)

- Allow overriding the `ocaml` binary with findlib configuration (ocaml/dune#7648,
  @rgrinberg)

  pass extra arguments to `coqdoc`. (ocaml/dune#7676, fixes ocaml/dune#7954 @Alizter)

- Resolve `ppx_runtime_libraries` in the target context when cross compiling

- Use `$PKG_CONFIG`, when set, to find the `pkg-config` binary  (ocaml/dune#7469, fixes
  ocaml/dune#2572, @anmonteiro)

- Modules that were declared in `(modules_without_implementation)`,
  `(private_modules)` or `(virtual_modules)` but not declared in `(modules)`
  will cause Dune to emit a warning which will become an error in 3.9. (ocaml/dune#7608,

- Dune in watch mode no longer builds concurrent rules in serial (ocaml/dune#7395
  @rgrinberg, @jchavarri)

- Dune can now detect Coq theories from outside the workspace. This allows for
  composition with installed theories (not necessarily installed with Dune).
  (ocaml/dune#7047, @Alizter, @ejgallego)

- `dune coq top` now correctly respects the project root when called from a
  subdirectory. However, absolute filenames passed to `dune coq top` are no
  longer supported (due to being buggy) (ocaml/dune#7357, fixes ocaml/dune#7344, @rlepigre and

- Coq language versions less 0.8 are deprecated, and will be removed
  in an upcoming Dune version. All users are required to migrate to
  `(coq lang 0.8)` which provides the right semantics for theories
  that have been globally installed, such as those coming from opam

  from 3.7 to 3.8 (ocaml/dune#7665, @jchavarri)
