  1. fanquake commented at 11:26 am on March 14, 2022: member

    We don’t use the serialization or archiving facilities of multi_index. So globally disable support, which gives a minor improvement in build time, i.e less preprocessing work, given we don’t link any Boost libs.

    See: https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_78_0/libs/multi_index/doc/tutorial/creation.html

    Serialization capabilities are automatically provided by just linking with the appropriate Boost.Serialization library module: it is not necessary to explicitly include any header from Boost.Serialization, apart from those declaring the type of archive used in the process. If not used, however, serialization support can be disabled by globally defining the macro BOOST_MULTI_INDEX_DISABLE_SERIALIZATION. Disabling serialization for Boost.MultiIndex can yield a small improvement in build times, and may be necessary in those defective compilers that fail to correctly process Boost.Serialization headers.

    Concept ACK on being explicit about used features.

    I haven’t the foggiest clue why, but this breaks the build entirely for me (for both GCC and Clang):

    Upon further research, this is a bug in 0.21 up to and including master. Fixing in #24633

    Rebased now that #24633 has been merged.

    @mzumsande when you were discussing a new serialization format, I assume you weren’t planning on using Boost Multi Index Serialization?

    no such plans, Concept ACK on disabling it.

    No objections, but I don’t get a speedup locally.

    but I don’t get a speedup locally.

    The speedup is basically a rounding error, but exists in the reduced amount of preprocessing work. i.e:

    0// txmempool.h
    1#include <boost/multi_index/hashed_index.hpp>
    2#include <boost/multi_index/ordered_index.hpp>
    3#include <boost/multi_index/sequenced_index.hpp>
    4#include <boost/multi_index_container.hpp>
    5
    6int main() {
    7	return 0;
    8}
    
    0time clang++ -E boost.cpp | wc -l
    1   98416
    

    vs

    0time clang++ -E boost.cpp -DBOOST_MULTI_INDEX_DISABLE_SERIALIZATION | wc -l
    1   94947
    

    The main goal is to explicitly opt-out of things we don’t use.
