Readme for hw-dsv-0.4.1.2

[back to package description]

hw-dsv

CircleCI Travis

Unbelievably fast streaming DSV file parser that reads based on succinct data structures.

This library will use support for some BMI2 or AVX2 CPU instructions on some x86 based CPUs if compiled with the appropriate flags on ghc-8.4.1 or later.

Compilation & Installation

Pre-requisites:

  • cabal-install-3.0.0.0
  • ghc-8.4.4 or higher

It is sufficient to build, test and benchmark the library as follows for basic performance. The library will be compiled to use broadword implementation of rank & select, which has reasonable performance.

cabal v2-configure --enable-tests --enable-benchmarks --disable-documentation
cabal v2-build
cabal v2-test
cabal v2-bench
cabal v2-install --overwrite-policy=always --installdir="$HOME/.local/bin"

Ensure that $HOME/.local/bin is in your path if you are using intending to use the hw-dsv binary.

For best performance, add the bmi2 and avx2 flags to target the BMI2 and AVX2 instruction are specified in the cabal.project file.

For slightly older CPUs, remove avx2 flags from the cabal.project file to target only the BMI2 instruction set.

Stack support

It should be possible to install hw-dsv via stack:

stack install --flag bits-extra:bmi2 --flag hw-rankselect-base:bmi2 --flag hw-rankselect:bmi2 --flag hw-simd:bmi2 --flag hw-simd:avx2 --flag hw-dsv:bmi2 --flag hw-dsv:avx2

Although your mileage may vary depending on which snapshot you are using.

The flags should be adjusted for the CPU you are targetting.

Benchmark results

The following benchmark shows the kinds of performance gain that can be expected from enabling the BMI2 instruction set for CPU targets that support them. Benchmarks were run on 2.9 GHz Intel Core i7, macOS High Sierra.

With BMI2 disabled:

$ cat 7g.csv | pv -t -e -b -a | hw-dsv query-lazy -k 1 -k 2 -d , -e '|' > /dev/null
7.08GiB 0:07:25 [16.3MiB/s]

With BMI2 and AVX2 enabled:

$ cat 7gb.csv | pv -t -e -b -a | hw-dsv query-lazy -k 1 -k 2 -d , -e '|' > /dev/null
7.08GiB 0:00:39 [ 181MiB/s]

With only BMI2 enabled:

$ cat 7gb.csv | pv -t -e -b -a | hw-dsv query-lazy -k 1 -k 2 -d , -e '|' > /dev/null
7.08GiB 0:00:43 [ 165MiB/s]

hw-dsv command line options

The hw-dsv application accepts 1-based column indexes rather than 0-based. The library is 0-based.

Using hw-dsv as a library
