    runtime: reduce linear search through pcvalue cache · 7d6b5e34
    Josh Bleecher Snyder authored
    This change introduces two optimizations together,
    one for recursive and one for non-recursive stacks.
    
    For recursive stacks, we introduce the new entry
    at the beginning of the cache, so it can be found first.
    This adds an extra read and write.
    While we're here, switch from fastrandn, which does a multiply,
    to fastrand % n, which does a shift.
    
    For non-recursive stacks, split the cache from [16]pcvalueCacheEnt
    into [2][8]pcvalueCacheEnt, and add a very cheap associative lookup.
    
    name                old time/op  new time/op  delta
    StackCopyPtr-8       118ms ± 1%   106ms ± 2%  -9.56%  (p=0.000 n=17+18)
    StackCopy-8         95.8ms ± 1%  87.0ms ± 3%  -9.11%  (p=0.000 n=19+20)
    StackCopyNoCache-8   135ms ± 2%   139ms ± 1%  +3.06%  (p=0.000 n=19+18)
    
    During make.bash, the association function used has this return distribution:
    
    percent count  return value
     53.23% 678797 1
     46.74% 596094 0
    
    It is definitely not perfect, but it is pretty good,
    and that's all we need.
