New SeaMonkey builds
« on: June 09, 2018, 07:59:33 am »
So I've built 3 SeaMonkey packages based on the latest (and probably last) code from Bitwise. Each is built with different optimizations, curious what works best for people.
All target i686 for now. i686 is the minimum requirement as Mozilla uses some atomic instructions that are not available in earlier CPU's.
This one is built with straight -O3 optimization, should be the fastest, also the most memory use <url>https://bitbucket.org/dryeo/dry-comm-esr31/downloads/seamonkey-2.42.9esr_r3.en-US.os2.zip</url>
This one is built the same as the latest Firefox, with the JavaScript engine using -O3 and the rest using -Os for minimal size. This is also what other platforms such as Linux use, <url>https://bitbucket.org/dryeo/dry-comm-esr31/downloads/seamonkey-2.42.9esr_r3_s.en-US.os2.zip</url> xul.dll is almost 10 MB smaller.
Rich pointed out that using -O3 is likely to expose GCC bugs, so I also built one using straight -O2, which is what we traditionally used until late in the 10ESR cycle. May be the most stable but worst performing. Firefox built with this often had a timing issue and failed to play Youtube videos, getting stuck at the loading phase. <url>https://bitbucket.org/dryeo/dry-comm-esr31/downloads/seamonkey-2.42.9esr_r3_O2.en-US.os2.zip</url>

There's also a build of Thunderbird with straight -O3 optimization that I'm using, <url>https://bitbucket.org/dryeo/dry-comm-esr31/downloads/thunderbird-45.8.0_r3.en-US.os2.zip</url> If requested, I can build with different optimizations.

I'll probably delete the exp builds so if anyone wants to save them... and will build for other CPU's.

I've built 3 SeaMonkey packages based on the latest (and probably last) code from Bitwise. Each is built with different optimizations, curious what works best for people.

First off, let me thank you for your responsiveness. :)

I d/l'd all 3 as soon as I saw this post and put icons for each on my Desktop so I could test them side-by-side. My first stop for each was YouTube - a site I seldom use because I can only take so much frustration. Let me tell you, regardless of which build I tried, this was the best YouTube experience I've ever had. Certainly there were some dropped frames with both HTML5/H264 and WEBM/VPX, but only once did the browser become momentarily unresponsive (I think it was with -Os and VPX). Using the -O3 version, I was surprised to find that VPX put less of a strain on my quad-core than h264 - but both performed well.

Of course, there's only so much that mere optimization tweaks can fix. I'm posting this using the -O3 build, and after watching several Sam Smith videos, one core keeps spiking to 100% every few seconds. I'll keep testing but my initial impression is that -Os is a noticeably weaker performer than the others. (Update: that -O3 build failed to terminate when I closed it and left the WPS unresponsive - had to kill it.)

BTW... which compiler did you use?

Yes, this -O3 build seems to have problems terminating, a new problem with SM but one that Firefox had until switched to the -Os.

I'm currently using Paul's build of 5.10. Not sure what, but something seems to have broken in my environment with 4.92, the browser built with it seemed fine until going to YouTube, where VP9 videos would just display static with a message that something went wrong.
Newer compilers fail due to changes in how they parse the C++ code, which is a shame as Paul says he fixed the alignment issues at some point.

Testing... Will take a while.

First results: seamonkey-2.42.9esr_r3.en-US.os2.zip (65945436 bytes) works with a (single core) Pentium 4 2.8 GHz. No adjusted settings, no disabled extras. The CPU load still is 100%, BUT ... it's no longer a honest 100%. Almost as if it's executing NOPs until the CPU load is 100%. So it's usable. Repsonsive. I'll try this with a Pentium III and a T42p too, and all other SM releases based on the same FF release.

is it possible to build with AVX optimization ?

It is, at least where assembly is used. For example in xul.map I see
Code: [Select]
0001:00798bb3  _ARGBCopyAlphaRow_SSE2
0001:00798c13  _ARGBCopyAlphaRow_AVX2
0001:00798c56  _ARGBCopyYToAlphaRow_SSE2
0001:00798cba  _ARGBCopyYToAlphaRow_AVX2
...
0001:0079a67b  _ARGBShuffleRow_AVX2
0001:0079a6bd  _ARGBShuffleRow_Any_AVX2
...
0002:00099d11  __ZN2js3jit7CPUInfo10avxPresentE
0002:00099d10* __ZN2js3jit7CPUInfo10avxEnabledE

The last is the JavaScript jit engine which has various AVX code paths but I'm not sure if all are enabled by default, js.cpp seems to imply they're not while config.status and the map file implies they are.
There's also the supporting libraries, libavcodec and libvpx, that'll use AVX if the CPU and OS support it.

Note that our compiler has problems aligning SSE and SSE2 instructions and I assume AVX as well so targeting newer CPU's is likely to result in crashes so we're mostly stuck with assembler use of these instructions.

@André, it may be worth testing with a different theme. Firefox in particular has high CPU load, especially when minimized, with the standard theme. Luckily we have SeaMonkey Modern under View.
There's also a problem with ChatZilla that causes high CPU, it's worth disabling if you don't need it.

I find with both Dave's initial SeaMonkey build (O3, I believe) and the official Firefox, I constantly have to delete the 'startupCache' directory manually from my profile otherwise it will fail to start.

In Firefox I seem to have mostly eliminated it by disabling the NoScript addon.  However, I don't have that enabled in SeaMonkey and I still get fairly frequent problems starting.  I disabled all my addons and am now gradually re-enabling them to see if one of them triggers it.  (Currently rikaichan is a prime suspect.)

Incidentally I tried installing AdBlock in Firefox, but that renders it completely unstartable.

Hey Dave,

Newer compilers fail due to changes in how they parse the C++ code, which is a shame as Paul says he fixed the alignment issues at some point.

If it's of value, perhaps I should update the 5.x build to 5.5.0 - might fix some compiler bugs? I do already have a 5.3.0 build - http://smedley.id.au/tmp/gcc-5.3.0-os2-20160107.zip

I could also try and backport the alignment fixes?

Cheers,

Paul

Hi Paul, wouldn't hurt to try the 5.5.0 as there may well be compiler bugs, not that I've noticed any but they're probably subtle if existing.
The alignment bugs would really be nice to have fixed. Mozilla is using more and more SSE2 stuff and after 52 dropped support for CPU's without SSE2 (minimum requirement Pentium M). Dmik just disabled SSE and SSE2 to build his P4 Firefox build.
There's also a bug with GCC finding the correct stdc++.lib. I have 510 installed in @UNIXROOT/usr/local510 with a script to load it ahead of 4.9.2 and it'll try to use the stdc++.lib in /usr/lib first. Currently I have to move the one in /usr/lib out of the way to compile C++, C code works fine.
Thanks.
Edit, now testing 5.3.0, will report if anything is different.

H Alex, never had a problem with startup.cache, I'd guess you're right about an add-on.
I'm using no-script with both SM and FF without problems. Adblock is known to cause high CPU on our builds, uBlock is a good alternative, on all platforms as they don't take money for ads to bypass the blocker.
Sometimes it's only certain combinations of add-ons that cause issues.
Personally I find that NoScript combined with a hosts file works well to block ads and other crap as well. I use the hosts file available at http://winhelp2002.mvps.org/hosts.htm, just need to manually install it into \mptn\etc, merging if needed.

A FF45 for i686+ would be nice-to-have. I'm not using FF45. Installing two different FF versions is possible, packaged and installed, but there's no way to solve the disk full-errors of that route.


Test 1 (out of 4). No reply expected, I'm just reporting. YMMV. A.o. no video tests, due to a lack of relevancy. Grab a dual core machine, visit YouTube, and smile when the difference is that CPU load peaks have dropped from a honest 100% to 98%. 



IBM ThinkPad 600E, Pentium II, CPU 500 MHz, RAM 224 (expected: above 256!?) MiB:


SM 2.35:

Start-up time until <Ctrl-O> menu is actually being displayed: 3'10"
CPU load: not that relevant, no improvements expected, almost anything is acceptable


SM 2.42, r3, second time to account for initial profile checks. Updated add-on, no updated langpack to save a few hours, no changes (AdBlock Plus, ChatZilla) because the CPU load is not that relevant:

Start-up time until <Ctrl-O> (file open) menu is actually being displayed: 3'34"
Stability: not relevant and not tested, doing anything may result in a Microsoft Harddisk Torture- and/or disk-full-related crash anyway.
CPU load: ~100%, responsive, may have been 2-6%'ish before the add-on update.
Works as expected, including the possible and known 100%-issue and causes.

SM 2.42, r3_O2, no changes:

Start-up time until <Ctrl-O> menu is actually being displayed: 3'12"


SM 2.42, r3_s, no changes:

Start-up time until <Ctrl-O> menu is actually being displayed: 2'19"


If results are WTF'ish weird, then swapping or other human errors may have been involved somehow...

5.3.0 seemed to work the same as 5.1.0
Thanks

BTW, should I be updating binutils?

Feed-back part 2 (out of 4). Same original SM 2.35 profile. No need to reply, I'm still just reporting results. YMMV.


IBM ThinkPad 600X, (common) Pentium III, CPU 500 MHz, RAM 576 MiB:


SM 2.35:

Start-up time until <Ctrl-O> menu is actually being displayed: 11'44"
CPU load: 100% (may be a weird machine or broken optimizations (posibly of Java or add-ons)) with a responsive OS, improvements hoped for but not expected


SM 2.42, r3, no updates to save a few hours, no changes (AdBlock Plus, ChatZilla) because the CPU load benchmark is a honest 100%:

Start-up time until <Ctrl-O> menu is actually being displayed: test aborted after 5 minutes, omni.ja couldn't be deleted afterwards for a while


SM 2.42, r3_O2, no changes:

Start-up time until <Ctrl-O> menu is actually being displayed: test aborted after 5 minutes


SM 2.42, r3_s, no changes:

Start-up time until <Ctrl-O> menu is actually being displayed: test aborted after 5 minutes




With an excluded Pentium III 500 MHz desktop I'd expect better, normal results and an usable browser. The odd one out? So far the winner is r3_s, but only because of the earlier fastest load time. So far any other type of performance played no role. Now I'll switch to Pentium 4-test results.
