Today someone asked me the (reasonable) question of how much performance impact there is from synching tags to maildir flags. It turns out it is noticeable, about a 50% overhead compared to non-synched tags (according to these tests). In practice I don't know if it's a big problem for users, since I don't know what fraction of tagging operations involve "special" tags. --- performance-test/T02-tag.sh | 9 +++++++++ 1 file changed, 9 insertions(+) diff --git a/performance-test/T02-tag.sh b/performance-test/T02-tag.sh index 9c895d6a..47fdb0c2 100755 --- a/performance-test/T02-tag.sh +++ b/performance-test/T02-tag.sh @@ -11,4 +11,13 @@ time_run 'tag * +existing_tag' "notmuch tag +new_tag '*'" time_run 'tag * -existing_tag' "notmuch tag -new_tag '*'" time_run 'tag * -missing_tag' "notmuch tag -new_tag '*'" +time_run 'tag * +maildir_flag F' "notmuch tag +flagged '*'" +time_run 'tag * -maildir_flag F' "notmuch tag -flagged '*'" +time_run 'tag * +maildir_flag P' "notmuch tag +passed '*'" +time_run 'tag * -maildir_flag P' "notmuch tag -passed '*'" +time_run 'tag * +maildir_flag D' "notmuch tag +draft '*'" +time_run 'tag * -maildir_flag D' "notmuch tag -draft '*'" +time_run 'tag * +maildir_flag S' "notmuch tag -unread '*'" +time_run 'tag * -maildir_flag S' "notmuch tag +unread '*'" + time_done -- 2.40.1 _______________________________________________ notmuch mailing list -- notmuch@notmuchmail.org To unsubscribe send an email to notmuch-leave@notmuchmail.org
