      syscall: remove nacl srpc helper · de786965
      Dave Cheney authored
      Fixes #11961
      
      Minux removed the use of SRPC in 003dccfa, but the SRPC name service
      code was left in the tree. SRPC was removed in pepper_42 making the
      code, which ran on startup, fail, even though it was not used.
      
      Removing srpc_nacl.go for a total diff of -822 lines has got to count
      as one of the easiest nacl fixes we've had to date.

      compress/bzip2: make decoding faster · 6403c957
      Alberto Donizetti authored
      Issue 6754 reports that Go bzip2 Decode function is much slower
      (about 2.5x in go1.5) than the Python equivalent (which is
      actually just a wrapper around the usual C library) on random data.
      
      Profiling the code shows that half a dozen of CMP instructions in a
      tight loop are responsibile for most of the execution time.
      
      This patch reduces the number of branches of the loop, greatly
      improving performance on random data and speeding up decoding of
      real data.
      
      name            old time/op    new time/op    delta
      DecodeDigits-4    9.28ms ± 1%    8.05ms ± 1%  -13.18%  (p=0.000 n=15+14)
      DecodeTwain-4     28.9ms ± 2%    26.4ms ± 1%   -8.57%  (p=0.000 n=15+14)
      DecodeRand-4      3.94ms ± 1%    3.06ms ± 1%  -22.45%  (p=0.000 n=15+14)
      
      name            old speed      new speed      delta
      DecodeDigits-4  4.65MB/s ± 1%  5.36MB/s ± 1%  +15.21%  (p=0.000 n=13+14)
      DecodeTwain-4   4.32MB/s ± 2%  4.72MB/s ± 1%   +9.36%  (p=0.000 n=15+14)
      DecodeRand-4    4.27MB/s ± 1%  5.51MB/s ± 1%  +28.86%  (p=0.000 n=15+14)
      
      I've run some benchmark comparing Go bzip2 implementation with the
      usual Linux bzip2 command (which is written in C). On my machine
      this patch brings go1.5
        from ~2.26x to ~1.50x of bzip2 time (on 64MB  random data)
        from ~1.70x to ~1.50x of bzip2 time (on 100MB english text)
        from ~2.00x to ~1.88x of bzip2 time (on 64MB  /dev/zero data)
      
      Fixes #6754
