From be1e3d3eab0af2a140463757a1ba3977167551af Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tom Tromey Date: Wed, 4 Mar 2020 16:34:49 -0700 Subject: Introduce objfile::intern This introduces a string cache on the per-BFD object, replacing the macro and filename caches. Both of these caches just store strings, so this consolidation by itself saves a little memory (about the size of a bcache per objfile). Then this patch switches some allocations on the objfile obstack to use this bcache instead. This saves more space; and turns out to be a bit faster as well. Here are the before and after "maint time" + "maint space" results of "file ./gdb": Command execution time: 4.664021 (cpu), 4.728518 (wall) Space used: 39190528 (+29212672 for this command) Command execution time: 4.216209 (cpu), 4.107023 (wall) Space used: 36667392 (+26689536 for this command) The main interface to the string cache is a new pair of overloaded methods, objfile::intern. gdb/ChangeLog 2020-03-04 Tom Tromey * symmisc.c (print_symbol_bcache_statistics) (print_objfile_statistics): Update. * symfile.c (allocate_symtab): Use intern. * psymtab.c (partial_symtab::partial_symtab): Use intern. * objfiles.h (struct objfile_per_bfd_storage) : Remove. : New member.
