This xslt build  takes  8+ minutes, compared to barely 1 minute for
'oldhtml'.

I'd say that is a strong disadvantage.

I hope 'for a while' will mean 'for a long time to come' or even
'forever.'

I'm just discovering the same.

I'd say that is flat out unacceptable.  I won't ever use this toolchain
if it's that much slower than the old way.  What was the improvement
we were hoping for, again?

On the buildfarm crake has gone from about 2 minutes to about 3.5 
minutes to run "make doc". That's not good but it's not an eight-fold 
increase either.

Gosh, and I thought the existing toolchain was already ridiculously
slow.  Couldn't somebody write a Perl script that generated the HTML
documentation from the SGML in, like, a second?  I mean, we're
basically just mapping one set up markup tags to another set of markup
tags.  And splitting up some files for the HTML version.  And adding
some boilerplate.  But none of that sounds like it should be all that
hard.

I am reminded of the saying that XML is like violence -- if it doesn't
solve your problem, you're not using enough of it.

On my MacBook, "time make docs" as of e36ddab11735052841b4eff96642187ec9a8a7bc:

real    2m17.871s

sys    0m2.238s

And as of 4ecd1974377ffb4d6d72874ba14fcd23965b1792:

I have committed another patch to improve the build performance a bit.
Could you check again?

On my machine and on the build farm, the performance now almost matches
the DSSSL build.

Get off an ancient and unmaintained tool chain.

It is indeed better (three minutes off, nice) but still:
real    5m21.348s  -- for 'make -j 8 html'
versus
real    1m8.502s   -- for 'make -j 8 oldhtml'

Centos 6.6 - I suppose it's getting a bit old, I don't know if that's 
the cause of the discrepancy with other's measurements.

Obviously as long as 'oldhtml' is possible I won't complain.

thanks,

Erik Rijkers

After the optimization, on my laptop it takes 2:31 with the new system
and 1:58 with the old one.  If it can be made faster, all the better,
but at this level I'm okay.

Now admittedly this conversion didn't do one bit towards the goal I
wanted to achieve: that each doc source file ended up as a valid XML
file that could be processed separately with tools like xml2po.  They
are still SGML only -- in particular no doctype declaration and
incomplete closing tags.

Yeah, I get about the same.

... and on the same toolchain.  Probably the answer is "install a newer
toolchain", but from what I understand, there's a whole lot of work there
if your platform vendor doesn't supply it already packaged.

Yes, that is one of the upcoming steps.  But we need to do the current
thing first.

I tested the build on a variety of operating systems, including that
one, with different tool chain versions and I am getting consistent
performance.  So the above is unclear to me at the moment.

For the heck of it, run this

xsltproc --nonet --stringparam pg.version '10devel'  stylesheet.xsl
postgres.xml

to make sure it's not downloading something from the network.

$ time xsltproc --nonet --stringparam pg.version '10devel'  
stylesheet.xsl postgres.xml
real    5m43.776s

$ ( cd /home/aardvark/pg_stuff/pg_sandbox/pgsql.HEAD/doc/src/sgml; time 
make oldhtml )
real    1m14.152s

(I did clean out in between)

Anyone who is still getting terrible performance (>2x slower) from the
html build, please send me the output of

xsltproc --profile --timing --stringparam pg.version '10devel'
stylesheet.xsl postgres.xml 2>profile.txt

so I can look into it.

(It will be big, so feel free to paste it somewhere or send privately.)

Still sucks for me on an up-to-date RHEL6 box: about 1m5s to build oldhtml,
about 4m50s to build html, both starting after "make maintainer-clean" in
the doc/src/sgml/ subdirectory.

BTW, I notice the "make check-tabs" step isn't getting run with the new
target; is that intentional?

It wasn't that big, so attached.

However, speed may be the least of its problems.  I just noticed that it's
inserting commas at random places in syntax summaries :-(.  For instance,
the "overlay" entry in table 9.8 looks like

overlay(string, placing
string, from int [for int])

Neither comma belongs there according to the SGML source, and I don't see
them in guaibausaurus' rendering of the page:
https://www.postgresql.org/docs/devel/static/functions-string.html

So I'm forced to the conclusion that I need a newer version of the
toolchain and/or style sheets.  If you've got any idea of just what
needs to be updated, that would be real helpful.  xsltproc itself
is from "libxslt-1.1.26-2.el6_3.1.x86_64" but I'm unsure what packages
contain relevant style sheets.

OK, I got it.  The component of concern is the DocBook XSL stylesheets,
called docbook-style-xsl on RH-like systems (docbook-xsl on Debian).  If
it runs too slow, it's probably too old.

Here you can see a list of available versions:
http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/

I noticed a significant slow-down with versions older than 1.76.1.  And
indeed CentOS/RHEL 6 comes with 1.75.2.

Also, the issue with the extra commas mentioned above goes away with 1.78.0.

Here is the trick why this isn't reproducible for some:

The local stylesheet file stylesheet.xsl references
http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/xhtml/chunk.xsl.  If
you have the docbook-style-xsl package installed, then this URL gets
redirected to your local installation through the XML catalog mechanism.If you don't have the package installed
locally,then xsltproc will
 
download the stylesheet files from that actual URL and cache them
locally.  So if you have an old docbook-style-xsl version, you get old
and slow behavior.  If you uninstall it or just never installed it, you
get the latest from the internet.

If you don't want to mess with your local packages, you can also prevent
the use of the XML catalog by setting the environment variable
XML_CATALOG_FILES to empty (e.g., XML_CATALOG_FILES='' make html).

There is some work to be done here to document this and make sure we
wrap releases with appropriate versions and so on, but I hope this
information can keep everyone moving for now.

OK, I updated docbook-style-xsl to 1.79.1 from Fedora rawhide (building
and installing that was quite painless btw, didn't need a pile of build
dependencies like I'd feared it would take).  The extraneous commas are
gone, and the speed is better but still not really up to DSSSL speed:
1m44s (vs 1m5s with old toolchain).  So there's some additional piece
that needs fixing, but that's certainly the worst of it.

It does much more intensive work with IO - I have feeling like there are intensive fsync.

You could prove that, by running "make html" under "strace -f -e
trace=fsync" etc.  I just tried that, and I don't see any fsync.  I
guess you could try other syscalls, or simply "-e trace=file".  Doing
the latter I noticed an absolutely stupid number of attempts to open
file
/usr/lib/libxslt-plugins/nwalsh_com_xslt_ext_com_nwalsh_saxon_UnwrapLinks.so
which deserves a WTF.

Hello Alvaro,

It's caused by the condition
<xsl:when test="function-available('suwl:unwrapLinks')">...
in the simple.xlink template 
(docbook/stylesheet/docbook-xsl/xhtml/inline.xsl). (This test executed 
for each xlink (~ 90000 times)).
Yes, it's inefficient but it doesn't affect build time (for me).
You can try to apply the attached patch and measure the time with it.
So If the performance is rather acceptable now I'd continue switch to 
XML, and get back to the performance issues after the switch.
(epub generation is much more slow, and I have developed a patch to 
speed up it too.)

Best regards,
Alexander

For me, that reduces the "make html" time from 1m44s to 1m43s.

I've done a few more tweaks, and now it actually runs faster for me than
the old build.

For me it's now 1m35s, which is better than the last round but not
quite up to the old speed.  It's tolerable though.  Thanks for hacking
on it.
