Subject: [PATCH v3 07/10] test-wildmatch: add "perf" command to compare wildmatch and fnmatch

From: Nguyễn Thái Ngọc Duy <[email-masked]>
Date: Tue, 1 Jan 2013 09:44:08 +0700

It takes a text file, a pattern, a number <n> and pathname flag. Each
line in the text file is matched against the pattern <n> times. If
"pathname" is given, FNM_PATHNAME is used.

test-wildmatch is built with -O2 and tested against glibc 2.14.1 (also
-O2) and compat/fnmatch. The input file is linux-2.6.git file list.
<n> is 2000. The complete command list is at the end.

wildmatch is beaten in the following cases. Apparently it needs some
improvement in FNM_PATHNAME case:

glibc, '*/*/*' with FNM_PATHNAME:
wildmatch 8s 1559us
fnmatch   1s 11877us or 12.65% faster

compat, '*/*/*' with FNM_PATHNAME:
wildmatch 7s 922458us
fnmatch   2s 905111us or 36.67% faster

compat, '*/*/*' without FNM_PATHNAME:
wildmatch 7s 264201us
fnmatch   2s 1897us or 27.56% faster

compat, '[a-z]*/[a-z]*/[a-z]*' with FNM_PATHNAME:
wildmatch 8s 742827us
fnmatch   0s 922943us or 10.56% faster

compat, '[a-z]*/[a-z]*/[a-z]*' without FNM_PATHNAME:
wildmatch 8s 284520us
fnmatch   0s 6936us or 0.08% faster
