CBitmapCompetition

Description

The goal of this project is to compare on realistic data different C and C++ techniques representing sets of integers.

We start from a collection of sets of sorted integers. For example, we might have 200 sets. This collection of sets is considered immutable (none of the benchmarks are allowed to modify them). For each of these collections of sets, we do the following :

  • We report the memory usage as best we can. Of course, data can always be compressed more or less aggressively to disk, but an important metric is how much RAM the bitmaps are using. It can be difficult to track every byte allocated, but we should do our best to get the memory usage within 1%. In C++, for STL containers, this can be done with a custom memory allocator that tracks memory allocation.
  • Intersections between successive bitmaps, each time generating a new bitmap. Thus if there are 200 bitmaps, we generate 199 temporary bitmaps representing the intersection. We then query and check the cardinality of the each intermediate bitmap (by summing them up).
  • Union between successive bitmaps, each time generating a new bitmap. We then query and check the cardinality of the result by summing them up.
  • We compute the union of the whole set and check the cardinality of the result. This can be done in various ways. A basic way involves doing successive in-place unions which should be the default. In this instance, it is fair to avoid creating temporary bitmaps.
  • Given that the maximal value stored in any bitmap is N, we check whether integers N/4, N/2 and 3N/4 belong to each bitmap (henceforth a quartile query).
  • Differences between successive bitmaps (as with intersections and unions above).
  • Symmetric differences between successive bitmaps (as with intersections and unions above).
  • Iteration through all set values.
  • Computing the intersection size between successive sets without materializing the answer.
  • Computing the union size between successive sets without materializing the answer.
  • Computing the difference size between successive sets without materializing the answer.
  • Computing the symmetric intersection size between successive sets without materializing the answer.

Thus, we output several numbers:

  • The memory usage, expressed as a floating-point numbers representing the number of bits used by value. In practice, this is computed by counting the number of bits used in RAM divided by the total cardinality. The total cardinality is given by the sum of the cardinalities of all sets. Thus if you have 200 sets each containing 10 values, your total cardinality is 2000, if you use 2000 bytes of memory, then your number of bits per value will be 8.0.
  • The number of CPU cycles used to compute the successive intersections, normalized by the number of input values.
  • The number of CPU cycles used to compute the successive unions, normalized by the number of input values.
  • The number of CPU cycles used to compute the total union using a naive algorithm, normalized by the number of input values.
  • The number of CPU cycles used to compute the total union using a heap-based or sort algorithm, normalized by the number of input values. In some cases, there might not be a reasonable heap-based or sort algorithm, but that is ok.
  • The number of CPU cycles to for each quartile query.
  • The number of CPU cycles used to compute the successive differences, normalized by the number of input values.
  • The number of CPU cycles used to compute the successive symmetric differences, normalized by the number of input values.
  • The number of CPU cycles used to iterate through all values, counting them, normalized by the number of input values.
  • The number of CPU cycles used to compute the size of successive intersections, normalized by the number of input values.
  • The number of CPU cycles used to compute the size of successive unions, normalized by the number of input values.
  • The number of CPU cycles used to compute the size of successive differences, normalized by the number of input values.
  • The number of CPU cycles used to compute the size of successive symmetric differences, normalized by the number of input values.

The normalization proceeds as follows. For the total union, we divide by the sum of the cardinality of all sets. For the successive intersections and unions, we divide by the number the sum of the cardinalities of the pairs of sets (so that, effectively, all but the first and last sets count twice).

For each competitive technique, we apply the following recipe:

  • We assume a Linux-like environment.
  • We put any non-standard dependency as a submodule of the project.
  • We put the benchmarking code in a separate executable file in the src directory. Having separate files for each technique introduces redundancies and possibly errors, but it keeps the complexity of the project low. Each executable file is simple and thus easy to examine and debug. If we need to study the performance of one technique with tools like perf, it is much easier of we have several independent executables.
  • The executable should be able to take as the sole parameter a directory name containing text files where each text file is a comma-separated list of sorted integers (e.g., one of these directories: https://github.com/RoaringBitmap/CRoaring/tree/master/benchmarks/realdata). We have a header file in the CRoaring project to help parsing such data files... https://github.com/RoaringBitmap/CRoaring/blob/master/benchmarks/numbersfromtextfiles.h Consider using it. The code should take just one such directory at a time as a parameter.
  • The executable should output the 4 performance numbers (memory usage, number of cycles...) on a single line, separated by spaces. If anything else is outputted, it should be prefixed by the '#' character. It is allowed for the executable to have a verbose flag (-v) that provides more insight into the results.
  • The executable should not try to outsmart the benchmark. Keep your code simple.
  • The Makefile must be such that make will build the executable.
  • The scripts/all.sh script should be modified so that the executable is called (this should only require adding the executable file name to the commands array).

Results

GCC 6.2, Skylake processor (3.4 GHz), CRoaring 0.2.3 (Sept. 9 2016).

For the first column of numbers, smaller is better (it is memory usage) whereas for all other columns, smaller is better (they are CPU cycles per operation).

First column is memory usage per value in bits. Second column is 2-by-2 intersection time (with cardinality computation). Third column is 2-by-2 union time (with cardinality computation). Fourth and fifth columns are wide unions times (unions of many sets) using either a naive or a heap-based approach depending on the column. Last column is random access time.

Where it appears, the "-r" flag means "with better compression". The "-c" flag means "copy-on-write".

$ make test
./scripts/all.sh
# For each data set, we print data size (in bits per value), successive intersections, successive unions and total unions [we compute the total  union first naively and then (if supported) using a heap-based approach], followed by quartile point queries (in cycles per input value), successive differences, successive symmetric differences, iterations through all values, then we have pairwise count aggregates for successive intersections, successive unions, successive differences, successive symmetric differences

# For each data set, we print data size (in bits per value), successive intersections, successive unions and total unions [we compute the total  union first na

symmetric differences, iterations through all values, then we have pairwise count aggregates for successive intersections, successive unions, successive differ

Usage

This project uses submodules as dependencies.

To pull all the submodules:

git pull && git submodule init && git submodule update && git submodule status

This needs to be done once at the beginning, and whenever the project has updated a submodule.

make
make test

There are additional tests. To benchmark with a large synthetic dataset, do :

make bigtest

To find "hot" functions in roaring, do:

make hottest

Be aware that if you call git pull while in a submodule, you are updating the project for everyone. Try to stick as much as possible with the git pull && git submodule init && git submodule update && git submodule status as it is safest (it only impacts your local copy).

If one of the submodules changes and you need to update it and update the project (for everyone, not just yourself):

git submodule foreach git pull origin master
make clean
make
make test
git commit -a
git push

Warning: issuing the command git submodule foreach git pull origin master while in the main directory or simply the command git pull origin master while in a submodule will change the repository because submodules are fixed to a given version, and you are updating the version to the latest available.

Using perf for analysis

Example:

$ perf record --call-graph dwarf ./hot_roaring_benchmarks -r  -m  wideunion CRoaring/benchmarks/realdata/census1881_srt
$ perf report --call-graph

Use Dmalloc

Some users would prefer to rely on Dmalloc to monitor memory usage. You can get the desired result by first building Dmalloc:

wget http://dmalloc.com/releases/dmalloc-5.5.2.tgz
tar xzf dmalloc-5.5.2.tgz
cd ./dmalloc-5.5.2
./configure
make
cd ..

(On some older systems you might need the -m64 flag. If that is needed, you can type export CFLAGS=-m64; export LDFLAGS=-m64;.)

Then you can copy the current Makefile to a file named makefile (it will have priority over Makefile) and replace the malloced_roaring_benchmarks target by the following:

malloced_roaring_benchmarks : src/roaring.c src/roaring_benchmarks.c
	$(CC) $(CFLAGS) -I./dmalloc-5.5.2/ -o malloced_roaring_benchmarks src/roaring_benchmarks.c -DDMALLOC -DDMALLOC_FUNC_CHECK -L./dmalloc-5.5.2/ -ldmalloc ;
	@echo ''
	@echo '   Note malloced_roaring_benchmarks is linked with ./dmalloc-5.5.2/libdmalloc.a' ;
	@echo '   to generate a logfile when running malloced_roaring_benchmarks quixk example:' ;
	@echo '      setenv DMALLOC_OPTIONS log-stats,log=logfile,check-heap,log-non-free,check-fence' ;
	@echo '   Then inspect the new log called 'logfile' after the run (ref: http://dmalloc.com/' ;
	@echo ''
