v0.42.0 — parser efficiency and representative PGO
v0.42.0 banks the latest authenticated parser-efficiency tranche while preserving 206/206 grammar parity.
Highlights:
- narrows automatic forest routing to corpus-certified exact and beneficial routes
- avoids a redundant external-scanner retry ladder for the exact built-in Crystal and Matlab grammars
- reduces compact-scheduler defer overhead with panic-safe cleanup
- refreshes the opt-in PGO artifact with deterministic, hash-verified representative inputs
- carries the accumulated selected-store consumer and instrumentation work recorded in the changelog
Scoped receipts include a 4.19% equal-fixture geomean improvement in compact canonical parse plus public-node materialization, 24.62% and 40.99% aggregate wall-time reductions in the certified Crystal and Matlab retry corpora, and a 4.01% selected-store geomean improvement from the refreshed PGO profile versus the previous profile. The existing production PGO workload remains statistically indistinguishable.
The compact selected-store measurements remain diagnostic and are not presented as public Parser.Parse throughput. See the changelog for exact gates, corpus sizes, oracle relations, and caveats.
