[ruby-core:100524] [Ruby master Feature#17206] Introduce new Regexp option to avoid global MatchData allocations

From: eregontp@...
Date: 2020-10-24 14:51:50 UTC
List: ruby-core #100524
Issue #17206 has been updated by Eregon (Benoit Daloze).


I took a quick look, the logic to set $~ is here:
https://github.com/ruby/ruby/blob/148961adcd0704d964fce920330a6301b9704c25/re.c#L1608-L1623

It does not seem so expensive, but the region is allocated which xmalloc() which is probably not so cheap (there is also a `rb_gc()` call in there, hopefully it's not hit in practice).
`rb_backref_set()` goes through a few indirections (it needs to reach the caller frame typically), but it does not seem too expensive either.
I think it would be valuable to investigate further what's actually expensive for setting `$~` and how can that be optimized.

A hacky Regexp flag to manually optimize `match/=~/===` calls doesn't seem a good way to me.
The caller code knows if it needs $~, etc, not the Regexp literal.

Feature #17206: Introduce new Regexp option to avoid global MatchData allocations
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/17206#change-88146

* Author: fatkodima (Dima Fatko)
* Status: Open
* Priority: Normal
----------------------------------------
Originates from https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/17030

When this option is specified, ruby will not create global `MatchData` objects, when not explicitly needed by the method.

If the new option is named `f`, we can write as `/o/f`, and `grep(/o/f)` is faster than `grep(/o/)`.

This speeds up not only `grep`, but also `all?`, `any?`, `case` and so on.

Many people have written code like this:
```ruby
IO.foreach("foo.txt") do |line|
  case line
  when /^#/
    # do nothing 
  when /^(\d+)/
    # using $1
  when /xxx/
    # using $&
  when /yyy/
    # not using $&
  else
    # ...
  end
end
```

This is slow, because of the above mentioned problem.
Replacing `/^#/` with `/^#/f`, and `/yyy/` with `/yyy/f` will make it faster.

Some benchmarks - https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/17030#note-9 which show `2.5x` to `5x` speedup.
