Performance of tests on MacOS has been atrocious for a while, and a lot of that is fsync, so we're trying to make that optional. To test all of this, I modified RBF to panic if anything tried to open an RBF database without disabling fsync, and ran the tests that way, and tracked down the various places this could still happen. There's a lot of places in our tree where we were creating test holders which were not getting created with fsync disabled, which results in a surprisingly large number of points at which we end up calling fsync in tests, which makes tests much slower than they need to be. There's also a bunch of places where the flags don't get propagated correctly; for instance, storage.fsync didn't propagate to the RBFConfig. We add an "fsync enabled" flag to OpenTranslateStoreFunc, so we can tell translation stores that we don't need syncing, so the server's config can be passed on appropriately. More of the test code that sets things up is correctly configuring that flag by default. We also change the barely-used bolt storage backend to support this as well. With this done, the only calls to fsync left in a run of `go test -short` in the top-level directory are from the zap logger in etcd, and consumed around 0.03 seconds. The overall impact is that `go test -short` went from "takes enough more than 10 minutes that i don't know how long it takes" to about 2.5 minutes. |
