From ffcd59ea1c51404567e4418ca228c46201a658c3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ryan Carniato Date: Thu, 10 Sep 2026 23:54:39 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] perf(signals): narrow store writes clone by spread; overlay only for wide owned backings Part one of #3360. Per write+commit on a one-key store: rc.7 629 ns -> 340 ns steady state; a fresh store's first write+commit 3x cheaper (the reporter's 100k-store shape ~265 -> ~90 ms). - cloneRaw spreads plain-data containers (Object.prototype, every own key an enumerable data property) instead of the descriptor walk: same result, ~1/50th the cost. The one-time accessor scan grades the container (sc 0/1/2) and records its own-key count (kc, bumped by set-trap writes of new keys so a record that grows from {} still graduates). - The #3044 prototype overlay is taken only for WIDE (>32 keys) containers over an OWNED backing. Narrow ones clone cheaper than they overlay (Object.create turns the backing into a V8 prototype and every flatten writes into that prototype); an unowned backing had to be privatize-cloned at commit anyway, so the overlay there paid create + clone + per-key copy. - Grade-2 containers flatten and take overlay first-writes by bare assignment; a non-plain defineProperty through the draft downgrades the grade so descriptor-bearing keys keep the descriptor paths. The remaining per-write cost is the weak-collection registration of each pending backing (~190 ns); that is part two.
