Problem

Bug bash round 2 (#1220, bash-core2) measured Search over 10,000 Logs with 4× CPU throttling (a mid-range laptop): typing-to-visible results p50 843 ms, p95 1,229 ms; first frame p95 535 ms. Server CPU peaked at 450% and RSS at 617 MB during the typing loop. DESIGN §59 budget for a keystroke-to-visible update is far lower.

Expected

Typing in Search shows updated results within the §59 interaction budget at 10k Logs on the perf VM (cold and warm), with cancellation of stale requests (no work for superseded keystrokes, on client and server), and no server CPU spike per keystroke.

Work

Measure first on the perf VM (shared prebuilt release server, flock /root/perf.lock) with the bash-core2 harness, attribute time (client debounce, request, server query, render), fix the top costs, re-measure interleaved against origin/dev. Screenshots at actual size of the palette while typing (390/820/1440, light/dark). Gates: cargo fmt/clippy/test for touched crates, bun run check, bun run test; quote verbatim.

Starting #1425 on branch job/searchperf-1425, based on origin/dev at d395b6e25da20d8c67b8b9fc1a593b813939c8a7. I am locating the existing Search benchmark and tracing client, server and render costs before making a change.

Finding: SearchWindow.run() aborts the prior browser request on each query change, but serverSearch() has SERVER_DEBOUNCE_MS = 0 and /api/v1/search runs provider fan-out without a server-side supersession signal. Thus the browser stops waiting, while an already accepted older request can keep using server CPU. I am measuring this with a 10,000-Log corpus before changing the request path.

The profile has not reached Search measurement yet. The prebuilt baseline server exits during startup with Error: NotFound in the root.open_prepare_recover phase, after it logs the expected temporary Instance and User data directories. I am tracing its filesystem calls under the required Perf VM lock to identify the failing operation. No benchmark numbers have been recorded yet.

The first cargo test -p calternal-server run completed 278 unit tests successfully, then failed the deterministic performance guard. perf-lint identified the existing exact cache.raw-read pin for apps/web/src/lib/search/server.ts as unused or changed because the serverSearch::ask syntax changed. I am refreshing only that live fingerprint while keeping its owner, reason, limit, and the ratchet count unchanged, then I will rerun the crate gate.

The Perf VM trace narrows the baseline startup failure: root.open_prepare_recover finishes in 198.6 ms, and the missing .system/journal entry is handled by Root::recover. The server then exits with NotFound before listening because the prebuilt origin/dev binary has no embedded _app/version.json; retain_frontend_assets requires that manifest. I will compare the origin/dev web build with the branch web build on one web-enabled debug server. The old client sends no Search generation headers, so its per-prefix requests still exercise the pre-fix path; the after run also checks server cancellation. This keeps the client A/B comparable without compiling a release binary on this job.

The second full cargo test -p calternal-server run completed 278 active unit tests, then failed the deterministic performance guard on the existing exact bounds.byte_cap pin for crates/calternal-server/src/main.rs (search:byte_cap). Extracting the Search handler changed that syntax fingerprint. I am refreshing this one pin and its #1058 checkpoint without changing the exception limit or contracts/perf/ratchet.json.

The deterministic scripts/perf-lint --check guard now passes the refreshed cache and Search response-bound pins, then reports the prior io.unresolved-call entry search:search:0ce2f8cb185f4047 as unused. The extraction moved that same home.as_str call into search_request, and the live parser reports its current identity as search:search_request:0ce2f8cb185f4047 with helper hash 907bf85ffeae8bc5f16487d76b77a263b0fc394730f0cc7ea3b9ee0e14de2983. I am updating exact identities and checking for any genuinely new findings before continuing.

Perf profile startup diagnosis: the trace shows RustEmbed can stat the embedded version.json at the compile-time worktree path, but the debug server then sees no frontend asset because that path is a symlink to a different canonical directory on the Perf VM. I will stage the matching production build as a real directory at the compile-time path and rerun the profile. This is a benchmark setup issue; no product change is needed.

Perf VM baseline run reached the real Search flow at load average 1.78, 1.22, 1.05. The uploaded Daily note was indexed, but the cold profile timed out waiting for a visible Search option containing “needle”; the bench correctly rejected the run and saved no report. I am checking the response and UI selector before another locked run.

The baseline timeout came from the profile fixture: needle appeared in all 10,000 Log bodies, so the cold query measured a 10,000-hit result set. The issue’s corpus is 10,000 Logs, not 10,000 matches. I changed the fixture so needle appears in one real Log, added a standard Daily note heading, and require the last block to be indexed as kind=log before profiling.

The exact-response diagnostic shows the UI selector was not the primary issue: GET /api/v1/search?q=needle&semantic=false returned HTTP 200 with zero hits, and the UI list was correctly hidden. The fixture’s last real Log is indexed and found as a kind=log hit by tokenitem09999. I will use that proven unique token for the typing and cancellation profiles and assert a visible Log row.

The browser probe observed the exact final Log on one /api/v1/search?q=tokenitem09999&limit=20&semantic=false request, then an immediate identical request returned 0 hits. The earlier preflight stopped after the first hit and therefore masked this unstable fixture state. I am changing setup to require consecutive successful reads and checking again after Files navigation before recording any performance sample.

The repeated fixture probe reports timed_out=false, zero hits, and indexing=true after 60 seconds while the 10,000-Log file is being added. This is an Index readiness wait, not a Search route timeout. The profile now waits for the API to report indexing=false and then requires the final Log in three sequential requests before measuring.

The first readiness-correct after profile completed on the Perf VM with 10,000 real Logs and 4× CPU throttling (load average 1.39 at start). Warm input-to-visible first-frame p50/p95 was 65.3/163.4 ms; cold was 101.8/154.3 ms. The current §59 p95 budget is 150 ms, so this run misses it by 13.4 ms warm. Server route p50/p95 was 40.852/89.909 ms; peak process CPU was 189.72% and peak RSS 788,160,512 bytes. The old issue measurement was 1,229 ms input-to-visible p95 and 450% peak CPU. I am running the interleaved origin/dev comparison before deciding if another fix is needed; this run failed only the new 150 ms profile assertion, after writing the metrics JSON.

The readiness-correct release-server profile showed the current 14-character tokenitem09999 query returns one Log. It does not reproduce the issue's 10,000 matching-Log typing workload. I will use the fixture's shared Searchperf term for cold/warm typing and screenshots, while keeping the unique final Log query as an Index-readiness assertion. The earlier unique-query A/B values are diagnostic only; I am rerunning the pair on the matching workload.

The full-corpus release A/B (same origin/dev release server, 10,000 matching Logs, 4× renderer throttle; load 3.64/3.55/2.54 at after start) shows the current 60 ms client debounce reduces warm request count from 11 to 3 and server peak CPU from 279.36% to 124.70%. Warm input-to-visible first-frame p95 moves from 187.2 ms to 216.3 ms, above the §59 150 ms budget; cold p95 is 281.3 ms. This shared release server predates the new server cancellation route, so the run isolates the client behavior. I am removing the fixed wait and will measure the client abort plus branch-server cancellation path.

Perf run after-b8 was incomplete: the fixture readiness checks passed for the 10,000-Log Daily note, but the warm typing phase timed out while waiting for a visible Log row after entering the shared Searchperf query. It wrote no profile JSON, so I am not counting it as a latency result. I added bounded diagnostics that distinguish an empty server response from a palette rendering issue. The next full-corpus run will use those diagnostics.

The full-corpus profile seeded and indexed all 10,000 Logs, then completed cold and warm typing. The run stopped in checkServerCancellation: its page.evaluate callback referenced Node's LAST_LOG_QUERY without serializing it into the browser context (ReferenceError: LAST_LOG_QUERY is not defined). No profile or screenshot set was saved. I have fixed the probe to pass the query as an argument and am rerunning the complete scenario.

The corrected browser probe passed Index readiness and the server cancellation check, then failed during warm typing. Its bounded diagnostics show the Search API returned HTTP 200 with 20 log results whose titles matched the 10-character query, while #search-results remained hidden and no Log row appeared within 30 seconds. The run saved no profile or screenshots. I am tracing the client result-visibility state before recording a candidate measurement.

A diagnostic rerun completed all 10 warm typing rounds and kept the Log rows visible; the earlier hidden-list symptom did not recur. It failed at the final stale-request assertion because Playwright 1.63 returns request.failure() as a record, while the probe called .includes() on it as if it were a string. That event callback threw, so aborted requests were reported as zero. The diagnostic run measured a warm first-visible p95 of 240.2 ms and server-route p95 of 172.067 ms on the debug server with response decoding enabled; I will not use those diagnostic numbers as the final release comparison. The probe now reads errorText, and the release run will check the budget without diagnostic instrumentation.

The release-server browser run indexed the 10,000-Log fixture and captured the 390 px light Files view and click-open Search state. It then typed the measured query but did not show a Log row within 15 seconds on the phone. The run exited before writing its profile or completing the screenshot set, so it is not counted as a performance measurement. I am adding bounded phone-path diagnostics and rerunning it.

Release profile run release7 reproduced the 390 px phone click path after the 10,000-Log fixture was indexed. Search opened, but at the end of the 15 s wait the combobox value length was 0 and document.activeElement was #chrome-sidebar-toggle; the visible Search list had seven navigation rows. A direct Search API request returned 200 with 20 Log hits. The harness had typed into the still-focused sidebar toggle, so this was a real focus handoff defect rather than a missing Index result.

The phone sidebar's Bits UI close-autofocus ran after its spring and restored the toggle over the Search field. I changed that close handoff to preserve focus while Search is open. The browser profile now waits for the sidebar sheet to detach and asserts the Search field owns focus, with no focus-visible ring, before typing. I am rerunning the release-server profile with the updated production web build.

Release 10 used a matching web/server build ID. Its click-open checks passed, then its keyboard-shortcut check found :focus-visible on the Search field. The Search dialog used raw .focus() after the shortcut had set keyboard modality. I changed that mount focus to the shared focusQuietly helper with an explicit suppress-ring behavior, added tests for suppressed shortcut focus and modality-aware restores, and will repeat the production screenshots.

The matching-build diagnostic run collected 164 ms p95 from input to the Search request, 36 ms p95 for the server route, and 212 ms p95 to the first visible result. The run is incomplete because its shortcut focus check found the ring fixed in the latest commit, so I am treating these as diagnostics rather than a budget pass. The provider registry started all local synchronous matchers before it called the server provider. I have changed content-mode dispatch to start the Search request first while preserving immediate local results, and added a regression assertion for that order.

The final performance contract check found a second stale exact pin after the focus change: render.bound for the Search dialog's flat.slice(range.start, range.end) list. Its surface hash includes the Svelte file fingerprint, so the same source edit also changes fingerprints for the six Search dialog lists. I am refreshing those exact registry and exception hashes; the rule limits, exception counts and ratchet ceilings stay unchanged.

The production Web build is synced to the perf VM and matches the prebuilt Search server build ID. The final 10k-Log profile is queued through perf-run because the single-tenant VM is in use by another benchmark. No final measurement has started outside the lock; the queued run will record load and capture the full screenshot matrix under the lock.

Job report — #1425 remains open

Head: 0fa596ff27d6bb937cf759094f5bc724d9f9719a.

Built

  • Search requests now start before local synchronous matching. Local results still stream in the same task.
  • Search cancels superseded work in the browser and in the server. The server keys generations by User and Search window, caps tracking at 256 windows, and expires idle entries after 30 seconds.
  • Search returns keyword hits before hybrid retrieval. Repeated Log date labels use a 256-entry locale-aware cache.
  • Search keeps focus after the phone sidebar closes. Programmatic focus after Cmd+K suppresses the focus ring; the shared helper still preserves modality-aware restore behavior.
  • Added/extended the 10,000-Log Search profile and real-browser assertions for cancellation, loaded results, focus rings, and the 390/820/1440 light/dark screenshot matrix.

Performance evidence and remaining work

The origin/dev baseline (d395b6e25da20d8c67b8b9fc1a593b813939c8a7, perf VM, 10,000 Logs, 4× CPU) measured warm first-visible p50/p95 of 76.3/187.2 ms and cold p50/p95 of 126.7/238.5 ms. Its warm input-to-request p95 was 374.6 ms; server-route p95 was 200.87 ms; peak server CPU was 279.36% and peak RSS was 713,293,824 bytes.

The last complete typing measurement was diagnostic only: release10 measured warm first-visible p50/p95 of 109.2/212 ms, input-to-request p95 of 164.4 ms, and server-route p95 of 36.151 ms. It failed the shortcut focus-ring assertion, so it is not a budget pass. Release9 also stopped on a build-ID mismatch toast; release8 stopped on phone sidebar focus handoff. These incomplete runs are not budget samples.

The final profile after the server-first dispatch change did not start. The single-tenant perf VM was held by another benchmark with an estimated 55-minute run. I queued the run through perf-run, then canceled it before it acquired the lock because this job had passed the shared four-hour limit. No final 10,000-Log measurement or post-fix screenshot matrix exists. I did not update docs/perf/baseline.json or attach failed screenshots. The next run must rebuild/sync the Web bundle, run bench/search-typing-1425.sh after release11 through perf-run, record load, verify the 150 ms cold/warm budget, update the baseline, and attach all 30 screenshots.

Expected cost: Search reads one bounded indexed result page for each active typed prefix. This profile covers a 10-character query over 10,000 indexed Logs, ten warm rounds at 45 ms per keystroke, plus a cold query, with 4× CPU throttling.

Decisions (DESIGN was silent)

  • Start the content-mode server provider first to overlap network/index work with local matching while preserving immediate local results.
  • Keep generation headers optional. Invalid metadata disables supersession. When the 256-window registry is full, leave the new request untracked instead of evicting another User's work.
  • Keep the 80 ms delay before the hybrid request and cap the Log date-label cache at 256 entries.
  • Use the prebuilt Search server at source 626584190ae6ec7949db5850a9db1dfdef89c905; set the production Web build ID to that server ID for the test environment. The Web source revision is recorded separately.

Known gaps

  • The final perf measurement, 150 ms budget result, screenshot attachments, and docs/perf/baseline.json update remain outstanding.
  • The server test has the timed startup failure above. The web check reports four existing Mail/Money CSS warnings.
  • The full e2e and adversarial merge-round matrices remain to be run.

Issue remains open.

## Job report — #1425 remains open Head: `0fa596ff27d6bb937cf759094f5bc724d9f9719a`. ### Built - Search requests now start before local synchronous matching. Local results still stream in the same task. - Search cancels superseded work in the browser and in the server. The server keys generations by User and Search window, caps tracking at 256 windows, and expires idle entries after 30 seconds. - Search returns keyword hits before hybrid retrieval. Repeated Log date labels use a 256-entry locale-aware cache. - Search keeps focus after the phone sidebar closes. Programmatic focus after Cmd+K suppresses the focus ring; the shared helper still preserves modality-aware restore behavior. - Added/extended the 10,000-Log Search profile and real-browser assertions for cancellation, loaded results, focus rings, and the 390/820/1440 light/dark screenshot matrix. ### Performance evidence and remaining work The origin/dev baseline (`d395b6e25da20d8c67b8b9fc1a593b813939c8a7`, perf VM, 10,000 Logs, 4× CPU) measured warm first-visible p50/p95 of 76.3/187.2 ms and cold p50/p95 of 126.7/238.5 ms. Its warm input-to-request p95 was 374.6 ms; server-route p95 was 200.87 ms; peak server CPU was 279.36% and peak RSS was 713,293,824 bytes. The last complete typing measurement was diagnostic only: release10 measured warm first-visible p50/p95 of 109.2/212 ms, input-to-request p95 of 164.4 ms, and server-route p95 of 36.151 ms. It failed the shortcut focus-ring assertion, so it is not a budget pass. Release9 also stopped on a build-ID mismatch toast; release8 stopped on phone sidebar focus handoff. These incomplete runs are not budget samples. The final profile after the server-first dispatch change did not start.

Mac setup note for #1425: macOS 27 arm64 has Chrome 154 under the User Applications folder. I failed to confirm this job had acquired /tmp/mac-bench.lock before starting a temporary headless Chrome profile on port 19223; another job held the lock. I stopped all of my SSH sessions immediately. I did not run the Search profile or capture screenshots. I did query the temporary browser's GPU renderer. A temporary Chrome process and profile may remain under ~/calternal-bench/searchperf2/chrome-profile-19223; I will stop and remove them only after this job reacquires the lock.

Measurement finding: HEAD changes crates/calternal-server/src/main.rs and adds search_cancellation.rs relative to origin/dev, and the Search profile checks that cancellation contract. Using the shared origin/dev server for both builds would leave the head run on the old cancellation behavior. I will use the shared release binary for origin/dev and build only calternal-server in release mode for head; this avoids a workspace build and lets both runs exercise their matching server.

The paired profile is staged on the Perf VM, but its lock is now held by an active 60-minute measurement lease. I am keeping the six-run profile queued until the lock releases. The branch-matched server release build is underway locally.

Measurement baseline is pinned to this branch's origin/dev base, af202e1514955ddf0f8b4b3d2503c780d807ed84. The profile harness labels baseline as the old client and asserts it sends no Search generation headers. The freshly fetched origin/dev (cc1af3c12b68ad26c8403adde1be39c096b9ddea) has since rewritten Search and removed this profile file, so using it would mix later Search changes into the #1425 comparison and invalidate those baseline assertions. I will still merge the fetched origin/dev before final verification.

The first Perf lease produced no samples: all three baseline attempts exited 2 because the shared origin server had the staged filename calternal-server-release while the runner expected calternal-server-origin-release; all three head attempts stopped before writing a profile with ETXTBSY because the head executable became visible during tar extraction. I confirmed the exact errors in the runner logs. I am renaming the complete origin binary and will rerun after ensuring the head executable is fully present before starting the locked run.

The second locked run also produced no metrics. Head server startup failed in all three rounds because the copied release binary could not find libsherpa-onnx-c-api.so; that library is available in the shared server target tree. Origin/dev started, but its browser page crashed in all three rounds while waiting for the real uploaded Log file row (.fc-item), before writing any profile JSON. Load5 at the start was 3.31. I will set the child server's library path and make one corrected full run; I will not use the failed attempts as performance data.

The third locked run wrote no profile JSON. The server library path is fixed: baseline processes reached the UI but the page crashed three times while waiting for the uploaded Log row; the branch server started successfully with the shared Sherpa/ONNX libraries, but Playwright 1.63 reported Invalid InterceptionId and then the same page crash. I will check the already-installed browser runtime and use one corrected harness run if its Playwright package/browser versions are compatible. The fixed decision rule still applies; failed runs are not measurements.

The Playwright 1.64 retry also produced no samples because its launcher expects chromium_headless_shell-1248/chrome-headless-shell-linux64/chrome-headless-shell; I had copied the full Chromium directory only. This is a browser-path setup failure before profiling, not performance data. The matching headless-shell directory is available locally. A new Perf job holds the VM now; I am queueing one final run for after that lease.

Perf VM comparison completed under the perf-run lock. It alternated three origin/dev baseline rounds from branch base af202e1514 with three head rounds at 0fa596ff27. The recorded load5 values at each run start were 1.84, 2.54, 3.07, 3.30, 3.59 and 3.71.

Median warm first-visible p50/p95: baseline 99.3/216.4 ms; head 95.5/200.8 ms. Median cold first-visible p50/p95: baseline 96.4/273.2 ms; head 180.3/350.5 ms. All six profiles were saved. The three head benchmark commands exited 1 because the Perf VM profiles exceed the benchmark's 150 ms cold/warm p95 assertions; the user-set decision still depends on Mac Chrome warm p95 and warm p50 regression.

Mac Chrome measurements and screenshots are pending the Mac VM lock.

Search typing performance — #1425

Decision: REJECT (acceptance not established). The Mac VM lock remained unavailable through 01:00 UTC, so the required Mac Chrome timings and screenshots could not be collected. This is an evidence blocker, not a measured Mac performance failure. I did not update docs/perf/baseline.json.

Linux perf VM measurements

Three alternating rounds each; values are first-visible p50/p95 in milliseconds. Load averages recorded inside the lock were 1.84, 2.54, 3.07, 3.30, 3.59, 3.71.

Condition Origin/dev rounds Head rounds Origin/dev median Head median
Cold 92.7/273.2 (n=7); 96.4/351.9 (n=7); 137.1/235.8 (n=10) 180.3/350.5 (n=3); 210.3/260.3 (n=3); 147.3/411.2 (n=7) 96.4/273.2 180.3/350.5
Warm typing 110.5/216.4 (n=96); 99.3/236.4 (n=91); 95.4/187.3 (n=93) 95.5/200.8 (n=89); 76.0/176.9 (n=92); 107.0/205.9 (n=92) 99.3/216.4 95.5/200.8

Warm typing p50 on head was 3.8% faster than origin/dev on the perf VM. The head runs exited 1 where the profile's 150 ms p95 assertions fired. The Mac warm p50/p95 comparison is not measured.

Mac evidence

  • Mac Chrome warm p50/p95, three alternating rounds: not measured. The lock waiter repeatedly returned MAC_LOCK_WAITING; I did not open a Mac SSH, Chrome or GUI session without the lock.
  • The 12 requested 390/820/1440 light/dark screenshots after Cmd+K and mouse click: not captured or attached.
  • Because Mac p95 is unavailable, the 150 ms Mac criterion cannot be checked. No performance tuning or baseline update was made.

Commits and files

  • Head: a953928a57b0d299143978fa414e6a63042b3337

Relevant files include apps/web/e2e/search-perf-1425.mjs, bench/search-typing-1425.sh, Search registry/server and focus modules/tests, crates/calternal-server/src/main.rs, crates/calternal-server/src/search_cancellation.rs, and the exact perf ledgers. The Mac runner patch was temporary and is not committed.
  • The perf comparison used branch-base origin/dev af202e1514955ddf0f8b4b3d2503c780d807ed84; current origin/dev had reworked the profile harness. This baseline choice was documented in an earlier issue comment.

The job time limit stopped further waiting. The next run needs to acquire /tmp/mac-bench.lock, run the six alternating Mac Chrome profiles, capture and attach the 12 screenshots, then apply the fixed decision rule. If ACCEPT, update and commit docs/perf/baseline.json; otherwise leave it unchanged. The worktree is clean, and build output was removed.

Relevant files include `apps/web/e2e/search-perf-1425.mjs`, `bench/search-typing-1425.sh`, Search registry/server and focus modules/tests, `crates/calternal-server/src/main.rs`, `crates/calternal-server/src/search_cancellation.rs`, and the exact perf ledgers. The Mac runner patch was temporary and is not committed. - The perf comparison used branch-base `origin/dev` `af202e1514955ddf0f8b4b3d2503c780d807ed84`; current `origin/dev` had reworked the profile harness. This baseline choice was documented in an earlier issue comment. ### Gates (verbatim output) `cargo fmt --check`: exit 0, no output. `cargo clippy -p calternal-server --all-targets -- -D warnings`: ```text Finished `dev` profile [unoptimized + debuginfo] target(s) in 33m 31s ``` Requested filtered command: ```text running 1 test test wire::tests::startup_serves_http_while_content_type_backfill_runs ... ignored, builds a live app with process-global plugin state; run by live_apps_run_in_separate_processes test result: ok. 0 passed; 0 failed; 0 ignored; 0 measured; 1 filtered out; finished in 0.00s ``` The repository marks this live-app test ignored for normal runs. It passed once using the documented isolated mode: ```text test wire::tests::startup_serves_http_while_content_type_backfill_runs ... ok test result: ok. 1 passed; 0 failed; 0 ignored; 0 measured; 290 filtered out; finished in 22.48s ``` `bun run check`: ```text perf-lint: PASS; 0 violations; 22544 scoped exceptions svelte-check found 0 errors and 4 warnings in 2 files ``` `bun run test`: ```text Test Files 301 passed (301) Tests 2170 passed (2170) Start at 23:21:33 Duration 435.52s (environment 30%, import 25%, transform 24%, tests 15%, setup 6%) ``` `cargo clean`: ```text Removed 25250 files, 14.4GiB total ``` ### Remaining The job time limit stopped further waiting. The next run needs to acquire `/tmp/mac-bench.lock`, run the six alternating Mac Chrome profiles, capture and attach the 12 screenshots, then apply the fixed decision rule. If ACCEPT, update and commit `docs/perf/baseline.json`; otherwise leave it unchanged. The worktree is clean, and build output was removed.

Orchestrator decision: branch job/searchperf-1425 (a953928a5) REJECTED on the perf VM data alone, by the pre-set rule (no host may be >10% slower at p50): COLD first-visible p50 96 -> 180 ms (+87%), p95 273 -> 351 ms; warm only 3.8% faster. The server-first dispatch likely delays the first local results on a cold window. Not merging. The focus-ring fix after Cmd+K (commit 926c6308e) is UI and will be ported separately by a Sonnet worker. Next step for #1425: profile cold first-visible on dev and keep local results first.
