496: Improve the performances of the flattening subcrate r=irevoire a=Kerollmops
This PR adds some benchmarks to the _flatten-serde-json_ crate, this crate is responsible for transforming the original documents into flat versions that the engine can understand. It can probably be speed-up and this is why I added benchmarks to it.
I make some interesting performance improvements when I replaced the `json!` macro calls.
```
flatten/simple time: [452.44 ns 453.31 ns 454.18 ns]
change: [-15.036% -14.751% -14.473%] (p = 0.00 < 0.05)
Performance has improved.
Found 2 outliers among 100 measurements (2.00%)
2 (2.00%) high mild
Benchmarking flatten/complex: Collecting 100 samples in estimated 5.0007 s (4.9M i flatten/complex time: [1.0101 us 1.0131 us 1.0160 us]
change: [-18.001% -17.775% -17.536%] (p = 0.00 < 0.05)
Performance has improved.
Found 6 outliers among 100 measurements (6.00%)
5 (5.00%) high mild
1 (1.00%) high severe
```

_I removed this particular commit from this PR._ The reason is that the two other commits were enough for this PR to give enough impact and be merged. We will continue to explore where we can get performances later.
But when I changed the flattening function to accept an owned version of the objects, we lost a lot of performances. Yes, I rewrote the benchmarks (locally) to clone the input object (and measured both, previous and new versions, with the cloning benchmarks). Maybe cloning the benchmark inputs is not the right thing to do...
```
Benchmarking flatten/simple: Collecting 100 samples in estimated 5.0005 s (6.7M it flatten/simple time: [746.46 ns 749.59 ns 752.70 ns]
change: [+40.082% +40.714% +41.347%] (p = 0.00 < 0.05)
Performance has regressed.
Benchmarking flatten/complex: Collecting 100 samples in estimated 5.0047 s (2.9M i flatten/complex time: [1.7311 us 1.7342 us 1.7368 us]

Performance has regressed.

a concurrent indexer combined with fast and relevant search algorithms
Introduction
This repository contains the core engine used in Meilisearch.
It contains a library that can manage one and only one index. Meilisearch manages the multi-index itself. Milli is unable to store updates in a store: it is the job of something else above and this is why it is only able to process one update at a time.
This repository contains crates to quickly debug the engine:
- There are benchmarks located in the
benchmarkscrate. - The
http-uicrate is a simple HTTP dashboard to tests the features like for real! - The
infoscrate is used to dump the internal data-structure and ensure correctness. - The
searchcrate is a simple command-line that helps run flamegraph on top of it. - The
helperscrate is only used to modify the database inplace, sometimes.
Compile and run the HTTP debug server
You can specify the number of threads to use to index documents and many other settings too.
cd http-ui
cargo run --release -- --db my-database.mdb -vvv --indexing-jobs 8
Index your documents
It can index a massive amount of documents in not much time, I already achieved to index:
- 115m songs (song and artist name) in ~48min and take 81GiB on disk.
- 12m cities (name, timezone and country ID) in ~4min and take 6GiB on disk.
These metrics are done on a MacBook Pro with the M1 processor.
You can feed the engine with your CSV (comma-separated, yes) data like this:
printf "id,name,age\n1,hello,32\n2,kiki,24\n" | http POST 127.0.0.1:9700/documents content-type:text/csv
Don't forget to specify the id of the documents. Also, note that it supports JSON and JSON
streaming: you can send them to the engine by using the content-type:application/json and
content-type:application/x-ndjson headers respectively.
Querying the engine via the website
You can query the engine by going to the HTML page itself.
Contributing
You can setup a git-hook to stop you from making a commit too fast. It'll stop you if:
- Any of the workspaces does not build
- Your code is not well-formatted
These two things are also checked in the CI, so ignoring the hook won't help you merge your code.
But if you need to, you can still add --no-verify when creating your commit to ignore the hook.
To enable the hook, run the following command from the root of the project:
cp script/pre-commit .git/hooks/pre-commit
