UniqueID benchmark was unrealistic — unique IDs still ran
cancel_item_locked_ scanning all containers for matches that never
exist. Replace with just two meaningful defer variants:
- Defer: anonymous (nullptr name, skips cancel entirely)
- Defer_SameID: fixed ID (cancel-and-replace coalescing pattern)
- Scheduler_Defer: use nullptr name matching Component::defer(func)
production pattern (skips cancel_item_locked_ entirely)
- Scheduler_Defer_SameID: fixed ID 0 measuring cancel-and-replace
pattern for coalescing rapid updates
- Scheduler_Defer_UniqueID: unique IDs measuring cancel scan overhead
when no match is found
Change kInnerIterations from 2000 to 2100 (divisible by batch sizes 3
and 10) to prevent pool imbalance at iteration boundaries that caused
spurious malloc. Add static_assert to each benchmark to catch this at
compile time.
Replace duplicated pool warmup blocks with a shared warm_pool() helper
that registers and replaces items twice to populate the recycling pool
before the benchmark loop begins.
Add Scheduler_SetTimeout_ExceedPool with batch size 10 (exceeding
MAX_POOL_SIZE=5) to measure the performance impact when the recycling
pool is exhausted and items must be malloc'd/freed each cycle.
Instead of draining after every single registration or batching 5,
use a batch size of 3 which represents a realistic worst case where
multiple components schedule in the same loop iteration while staying
within the recycling pool (MAX_POOL_SIZE=5).
Scheduler registration benchmarks (SetTimeout, SetInterval, Defer) were
not calling scheduler.call() periodically to drain and clean up cancelled
items. In production, call() runs every loop iteration, keeping the
scheduler containers small. Without draining, cancelled items accumulated
causing O(n²) scan cost in cancel_item_locked_ that doesn't reflect
real-world behavior.
- SetTimeout: was only calling process_to_add() (no cleanup), now calls
call() every kKeyCount iterations
- SetInterval: was calling process_to_add() (no cleanup of items_), now
calls call() for proper cleanup
- Defer: was never draining the defer queue, now calls call() to process
deferred items as production does
- All three now advance time (++now) to match production loop behavior
should_send_immediately_ requires both should_try_send_immediately
flag AND batch_delay==0. Without setting batch_delay to 0, all
sends were falling back to the batch path.
Increase socket buffer to 16MB so benchmarks never hit WOULD_BLOCK
during an inner loop iteration. Remove per-iteration drain_socket
calls that were adding noise and causing the immediate path to
fall back to batching. Drain only between outer iterations.
