The comment for parsebranch() claims that it avoids generating unnecessary concatenation nodes in the "subre" tree, but it missed some significant cases. Once we've decided that a given atom is "messy" and can't be bundled with the preceding atom(s) of the current regex branch, parseqatom() always generated two new concat nodes, one to concat the messy atom to what follows it in the branch, and an upper node to concatenate the preceding part of the branch to that one. But one or both of these could be unnecessary, if the messy atom is the first, last, or only one in the branch. Improve the code to suppress such useless concat nodes, along with the no-op child nodes representing empty chunks of a branch. Reducing the number of subre tree nodes offers significant savings not only at execution but during compilation, because each subre node has its own NFA that has to be separately optimized. (Maybe someday we'll figure out how to share the optimization work across multiple tree nodes, but it doesn't look easy.) Eliminating upper tree nodes is especially useful because they tend to have larger NFAs. This is part of a patch series that in total reduces the regex engine's runtime by about a factor of four on a large corpus of real-world regexes. Patch by me, reviewed by Joel Jacobson Discussion: https://postgr.es/m/1340281.1613018383@sss.pgh.pa.us |

PostgreSQL Database Management System ===================================== This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL database management system. PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types and functions. This distribution also contains C language bindings. PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here: https://www.postgresql.org/download/ See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install PostgreSQL. That file also lists supported operating systems and hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL system. Copyright and license information can be found in the file COPYRIGHT. A comprehensive documentation set is included in this distribution; it can be read as described in the installation instructions. The latest version of this software may be obtained at https://www.postgresql.org/download/. For more information look at our web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
