Brad Fitzpatrick在YAPC Asia 2015（Yet Another Perl Conference）上做了一次技术分享，题为："Go Debugging, Profiling, and Optimization"。个人感觉这篇分享中价值最大的是BradFitz现场演示的一个有关如何对Go程序进行调试、分析和优化的 Demo，Brad将demo上传到了他个人在github.com的repo中，但不知为何，repo中的代码似乎与repo里talk.md中的说明不甚一致(btw，我并没有看video)。于 是打算在这里按照Brad的思路重新走一遍demo的演示流程(所有演示代码在这里可以下载到)。
一、实验环境
$uname -a
Linux pc-tony 3.13.0-61-generic #100~precise1-Ubuntu SMP Wed Jul 29 12:06:40 UTC 2015 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
注意:在Darwin或Windows下，profile的结果可能与这里有很大不同(甚至完全不一样的输出和瓶颈热点)。
$go version

代码基于Brad的github.com/bradfitz/talk-yapc-asia-2015。
二、待优化程序(step0)
待优化程序，也就是原始程序，我们放在step0中：
//go-debug-profile-optimization/step0/demo.go
package main
import (
"fmt"
"log"
"net/http"
"regexp"
)
var visitors int
func handleHi(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
if match, _ := regexp.MatchString(`^\w*$`, r.FormValue("color")); !match {
http.Error(w, "Optional color is invalid", http.StatusBadRequest)
return
}
visitors++
w.Header().Set("Content-Type", "text/html; charset=utf-8")
w.Write([]byte("<h1 style='color: " + r.FormValue("color") +
"'>Welcome!</h1>You are visitor number " + fmt.Sprint(visitors) + "!"))
}
func main() {
log.Printf("Starting on port 8080")
http.HandleFunc("/hi", handleHi)
log.Fatal(http.ListenAndServe("127.0.0.1:8080", nil))
}
$go run demo.go
2015/08/25 09:42:35 Starting on port 8080
在浏览器输入：http://localhost:8080/hi
一切顺利的话，页面会显示：
Welcome!
You are visitor number 1!
三、添加测试代码
按照talk.md中的说明，brad repo中demo中根本没有测试代码(commit 2427d0faa12ed1fb05f1e6a1e69307c11259c2b2)。
于是我根据作者的意图，新增了demo_test.go，采用TestHandleHi_Recorder和TestHandleHi_TestServer对HandleHi进行测试：
//go-debug-profile-optimization/step0/demo_test.go
package main
import (
"bufio"
"net/http"
"net/http/httptest"
"strings"
"testing"
)
func TestHandleHi_Recorder(t *testing.T) {
rw := httptest.NewRecorder()
handleHi(rw, req(t, "GET / HTTP/1.0\r\n\r\n"))
if !strings.Contains(rw.Body.String(), "visitor number") {
t.Errorf("Unexpected output: %s", rw.Body)
}
}
func req(t *testing.T, v string) *http.Request {
req, err := http.ReadRequest(bufio.NewReader(strings.NewReader(v)))
if err != nil {
t.Fatal(err)
}
return req
}
func TestHandleHi_TestServer(t *testing.T) {
ts := httptest.NewServer(http.HandlerFunc(handleHi))
defer ts.Close()
res, err := http.Get(ts.URL)
if err != nil {
t.Error(err)
return
}
if g, w := res.Header.Get("Content-Type"), "text/html; charset=utf-8"; g != w {
t.Errorf("Content-Type = %q; want %q", g, w)
}
slurp, err := ioutil.ReadAll(res.Body)
defer res.Body.Close()
if err != nil {
t.Error(err)
return
}
t.Logf("Got: %s", slurp)
}
$ go test -v
=== RUN TestHandleHi_Recorder
— PASS: TestHandleHi_Recorder (0.00s)
=== RUN TestHandleHi_TestServer
— PASS: TestHandleHi_TestServer (0.00s)
demo_test.go:45: Got: <h1 style='color: '>Welcome!</h1>You are visitor number 2!
PASS
ok _/home1/tonybai/proj/opensource/github/experiments/go-debug-profile-optimization/step0 0.007s
测试通过！
至此，step0使命结束。
四、Race Detector(竞态分析）
并发设计使得程序可以更好更有效的利用现代处理器的多核心。但并发设计很容易引入竞态，导致严重bug。Go程序中竞态就是当多个goroutine并发 访问某共享数据且未使用同步机制时，且至少一个goroutine进行了写操作。不过go工具自带race分析功能。在分析优化step0中demo代码 前，我们先要保证demo代码中不存在竞态。
工具的使用方法就是在go test后加上-race标志，在step0目录下：
$ go test -v -race
=== RUN TestHandleHi_Recorder
— PASS: TestHandleHi_Recorder (0.00s)
=== RUN TestHandleHi_TestServer
— PASS: TestHandleHi_TestServer (0.00s)
demo_test.go:45: Got: <h1 style='color: '>Welcome!</h1>You are visitor number 2!
PASS
ok _/home1/tonybai/proj/opensource/github/experiments/go-debug-profile-optimization/step0 1.012s
-race通过做运行时分析做竞态分析，虽然不存在误报，但却存在实际有竞态，但工具没发现的情况。接下来我们改造一下测试代码，让test并发起来：
向step1(copy自step0)中demo_test.go中添加一个test method:
//go-debug-profile-optimization/step1/demo_test.go
… …
func TestHandleHi_TestServer_Parallel(t *testing.T) {
ts := httptest.NewServer(http.HandlerFunc(handleHi))
defer ts.Close()
var wg sync.WaitGroup
for i := 0; i < 2; i++ {
wg.Add(1)
go func() {
defer wg.Done()
res, err := http.Get(ts.URL)
if err != nil {
t.Error(err)
return
}
if g, w := res.Header.Get("Content-Type"), "text/html; charset=utf-8"; g != w {
t.Errorf("Content-Type = %q; want %q", g, w)
}
slurp, err := ioutil.ReadAll(res.Body)
defer res.Body.Close()
if err != nil {
t.Error(err)
return
}
t.Logf("Got: %s", slurp)
}()
}
wg.Wait()
}
… …
执行竞态test：
$ go test -v -race
=== RUN TestHandleHi_Recorder
— PASS: TestHandleHi_Recorder (0.00s)
=== RUN TestHandleHi_TestServer
— PASS: TestHandleHi_TestServer (0.00s)
demo_test.go:46: Got: <h1 style='color: '>Welcome!</h1>You are visitor number 2!
=== RUN TestHandleHi_TestServer_Parallel

FAIL _/home1/tonybai/proj/opensource/github/experiments/go-debug-profile-optimization/step1 1.023s
工具发现demo.go第17行：
visitors++
是一处潜在的竞态条件。
visitors被多个goroutine访问但未采用同步机制。
既然发现了竞态条件，我们就需要fix it。有多种fix方法可选：
1、使用channel
2、使用Mutex
3、使用atomic
Brad使用了atomic：
//go-debug-profile-optimization/step1/demo.go
… …
var visitors int64 // must be accessed atomically
func handleHi(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
if match, _ := regexp.MatchString(`^\w*$`, r.FormValue("color")); !match {
http.Error(w, "Optional color is invalid", http.StatusBadRequest)
return
}
visitNum := atomic.AddInt64(&visitors, 1)
w.Header().Set("Content-Type", "text/html; charset=utf-8")
w.Write([]byte("<h1 style='color: " + r.FormValue("color") +
"'>Welcome!</h1>You are visitor number " + fmt.Sprint(visitNum) + "!"))
}
… …
再做一次测试：
$ go test -v -race
=== RUN TestHandleHi_Recorder
— PASS: TestHandleHi_Recorder (0.00s)
=== RUN TestHandleHi_TestServer
— PASS: TestHandleHi_TestServer (0.00s)

=== RUN TestHandleHi_TestServer_Parallel
— PASS: TestHandleHi_TestServer_Parallel (0.00s)
demo_test.go:71: Got: <h1 style='color: '>Welcome!</h1>You are visitor number 3!
demo_test.go:71: Got: <h1 style='color: '>Welcome!</h1>You are visitor number 4!
PASS
ok _/home1/tonybai/proj/opensource/github/experiments/go-debug-profile-optimization/step1 1.020s
竞态条件被消除了！
至此，step1结束了使命！
五、CPU Profiling
要做CPU Profilling，我们需要benchmark数据，Go test提供benchmark test功能，我们只要写对应的Benchmark测试方法即可：
//go-debug-profile-optimization/step2/demo_test.go
… …
func BenchmarkHi(b *testing.B) {
b.ReportAllocs()
req, err := http.ReadRequest(bufio.NewReader(strings.NewReader("GET / HTTP/1.0\r\n\r\n")))
if err != nil {
b.Fatal(err)
}
for i := 0; i < b.N; i++ {
rw := httptest.NewRecorder()
handleHi(rw, req)
}
}
… …
$ go test -v -run=^$ -bench=.
PASS
BenchmarkHi-4 100000 14808 ns/op 4961 B/op 81 allocs/op
ok _/home1/tonybai/proj/opensource/github/experiments/go-debug-profile-optimization/step2 1.648s
开始CPU Profiling：
$ go test -v -run=^$ -bench=^BenchmarkHi$ -benchtime=2s -cpuprofile=prof.cpu
PASS
BenchmarkHi-4 200000 14679 ns/op 4961 B/op 81 allocs/op
ok _/home1/tonybai/proj/opensource/github/experiments/go-debug-profile-optimization/step2 3.096s
执行完benchmark test后，step2目录下出现两个新文件prof.cpu和step2.test，这两个文件将作为后续go tool pprof的输入：
$ls
demo.go demo_test.go prof.cpu step2.test*
使用go profile viewer工具：
$ go tool pprof step2.test prof.cpu

(pprof)
从top –cum来看，handleHi消耗cpu较大，而handleHi中，又是MatchString耗时最长。
六、第一次优化
前面已经发现MatchString较为耗时，优化手段：让正则式仅编译一次(step3)：
// go-debug-profile-optimization/step3/demo.go
… …
var visitors int64 // must be accessed atomically
var rxOptionalID = regexp.MustCompile(`^\d*$`)
func handleHi(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
if !rxOptionalID.MatchString(r.FormValue("color")) {
http.Error(w, "Optional color is invalid", http.StatusBadRequest)
return
}
visitNum := atomic.AddInt64(&visitors, 1)
w.Header().Set("Content-Type", "text/html; charset=utf-8")
w.Write([]byte("<h1 style='color: " + r.FormValue("color") +
"'>Welcome!</h1>You are visitor number " + fmt.Sprint(visitNum) + "!"))
}
… …
运行一下bench：
$ go test -bench=.
PASS
BenchmarkHi-4 1000000 1678 ns/op 720 B/op 9 allocs/op
ok _/home1/tonybai/proj/opensource/github/experiments/go-debug-profile-optimization/step3 1.710s
对比之前在step2中运行的bench结果：
$ go test -v -run=^$ -bench=.
PASS
BenchmarkHi-4 100000 14808 ns/op 4961 B/op 81 allocs/op
ok _/home1/tonybai/proj/opensource/github/experiments/go-debug-profile-optimization/step2 1.648s
耗时相同，但优化后的bench运行了100w次，而之前的Bench运行10w次，相当于性能提高10倍。
再看看cpu prof结果：
$ go test -v -run=^$ -bench=^BenchmarkHi$ -benchtime=3s -cpuprofile=prof.cpu
PASS
BenchmarkHi-4 3000000 1640 ns/op 720 B/op 9 allocs/op

handleHi耗时有一定下降。
七、Mem Profiling
在step3目录下执行bench，获取mem分配数据：
$ go test -v -run=^$ -bench=^BenchmarkHi$ -benchtime=2s -memprofile=prof.mem
PASS
BenchmarkHi-4 2000000 1657 ns/op 720 B/op 9 allocs/op

. . 26:
. . 27:func main() {
. . 28: log.Printf("Starting on port 8080")
. . 29: http.HandleFunc("/hi", handleHi)
(pprof)
可以看到handleHi22、23两行占用了较多内存。
八、第二次优化
第二次优化的方法：
1、删除w.Header().Set这行
2、用fmt.Fprintf替代w.Write
第二次优化的代码在step4目录中：
// go-debug-profile-optimization/step4/demo.go
… …
func handleHi(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
if !rxOptionalID.MatchString(r.FormValue("color")) {
http.Error(w, "Optional color is invalid", http.StatusBadRequest)
return
}
visitNum := atomic.AddInt64(&visitors, 1)
fmt.Fprintf(w, "<html><h1 stype='color: \"%s\"'>Welcome!</h1>You are visitor number %d!", r.FormValue("color"), visitNum)
}
… …
执行一遍pprof:

(pprof)
可以看出内存占用大幅减少。
九、Benchcmp
golang.org/x/tools中有一个工具：benchcmp，可以给出两次bench的结果对比。
github.com/golang/tools是golang.org/x/tools的一个镜像。安装benchcmp步骤：
1、go get -u github.com/golang/tools
2、mkdir -p $GOPATH/src/golang.org/x
3、mv $GOPATH/src/github.com/golang/tools $GOPATH/src/golang.org/x
4、go install golang.org/x/tools/cmd/benchcmp
我们分别在step2、step3和step4下执行如下命令：
$ go-debug-profile-optimization/step2$ go test -bench=. -memprofile=prof.mem | tee mem.2
PASS
BenchmarkHi-4 100000 14786 ns/op 4961 B/op 81 allocs/op
ok _/home1/tonybai/proj/opensource/github/experiments/go-debug-profile-optimization/step2 1.644s
go-debug-profile-optimization/step3$ go test -bench=. -memprofile=prof.mem | tee mem.3
PASS
BenchmarkHi-4 1000000 1662 ns/op 720 B/op 9 allocs/op
ok _/home1/tonybai/proj/opensource/github/experiments/go-debug-profile-optimization/step3 1.694s
go-debug-profile-optimization/step4$ go test -bench=. -memprofile=prof.mem | tee mem.4
PASS
BenchmarkHi-4 1000000 1428 ns/op 304 B/op 6 allocs/op
ok _/home1/tonybai/proj/opensource/github/experiments/go-debug-profile-optimization/step4 1.456s
利用benchcmp工具对比结果（benchcmp old new）：
$ benchcmp step3/mem.3 step4/mem.4
benchmark old ns/op new ns/op delta
BenchmarkHi-4 1662 1428 -14.08%
benchmark old allocs new allocs delta
BenchmarkHi-4 9 6 -33.33%
benchmark old bytes new bytes delta
BenchmarkHi-4 720 304 -57.78%
$ benchcmp step2/mem.2 step4/mem.4
benchmark old ns/op new ns/op delta
BenchmarkHi-4 14786 1428 -90.34%
benchmark old allocs new allocs delta
BenchmarkHi-4 81 6 -92.59%
benchmark old bytes new bytes delta
BenchmarkHi-4 4961 304 -93.87%
可以看出优化后，内存分配大幅减少，gc的时间也随之减少。
十、内存来自哪
我们在BenchmarkHi中清理每次handleHi执行后的内存：
//step5/demo_test.go
… …
func BenchmarkHi(b *testing.B) {
b.ReportAllocs()
req, err := http.ReadRequest(bufio.NewReader(strings.NewReader("GET / HTTP/1.0\r\n\r\n")))
if err != nil {
b.Fatal(err)
}
for i := 0; i < b.N; i++ {
rw := httptest.NewRecorder()
handleHi(rw, req)
reset(rw)
}
}
func reset(rw *httptest.ResponseRecorder) {
m := rw.HeaderMap
for k := range m {
delete(m, k)
}
body := rw.Body
body.Reset()
*rw = httptest.ResponseRecorder{
Body: body,
HeaderMap: m,
}
}
… …
$ go test -v -run=^$ -bench=^BenchmarkHi$ -benchtime=2s -memprofile=prof.mem
PASS

ROUTINE ======================== _/home1/tonybai/proj/opensource/github/experiments/go-debug-profile-optimization/step5.handleHi in /home1/tonybai/proj/opensource/github/experiments/go-debug-profile-optimization/step5/demo.go

. . 27: http.HandleFunc("/hi", handleHi)
(pprof)
内存从300MB降到111MB。内存来自哪？看到list handleHi，fmt.Fprintf分配了111.51MB。
我们来看这一行代码：
fmt.Fprintf(w, "<h1 style='color: %s'>Welcome!</h1>You are visitor number %d!",
r.FormValue("color"), num)
fmt.Fprintf的manual：
$ go doc fmt.Fprintf
func Fprintf(w io.Writer, format string, a …interface{}) (n int, err error)
Fprintf formats according to a format specifier and writes to w. It returns
the number of bytes written and any write error encountered.
这里回顾一下Go type在runtime中的内存占用：
A Go interface is 2 words of memory: (type, pointer).
A Go string is 2 words of memory: (base pointer, length)
A Go slice is 3 words of memory: (base pointer, length, capacity)
每次调用fmt.Fprintf，参数以value值形式传入函数时，程序就要为每个变参分配一个占用16bytes的empty interface，然后用传入的类型初始化该interface value。这就是这块累计分配内存较多的原因。
十一、消除所有内存分配
下面的优化代码可能在实际中并不需要，但一旦真的成为瓶颈，可以这么做：
//go-debug-profile-optimization/step6/demo.go
… …
var bufPool = sync.Pool{
New: func() interface{} {
return new(bytes.Buffer)
},
}
func handleHi(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
if !rxOptionalID.MatchString(r.FormValue("color")) {
http.Error(w, "Optional color is invalid", http.StatusBadRequest)
return
}
visitNum := atomic.AddInt64(&visitors, 1)
buf := bufPool.Get().(*bytes.Buffer)
defer bufPool.Put(buf)
buf.Reset()
buf.WriteString("<h1 style='color: ")
buf.WriteString(r.FormValue("color"))
buf.WriteString("'>Welcome!</h1>You are visitor number ")
b := strconv.AppendInt(buf.Bytes(), int64(visitNum), 10)
b = append(b, '!')
w.Write(b)
}
… …
$ go test -v -run=^$ -bench=^BenchmarkHi$ -benchtime=2s -memprofile=prof.mem
PASS
BenchmarkHi-4 5000000 780 ns/op 192 B/op 3 allocs/op

可以看到handleHi已经不在top列表中了。benchcmp结果也显示内存分配又有大幅下降！
十二、竞争(Contention)优化
为handleHi编写一个Parallel benchmark test:
//go-debug-profile-optimization/step7/demo_test.go
… …
func BenchmarkHiParallel(b *testing.B) {
r, err := http.ReadRequest(bufio.NewReader(strings.NewReader("GET / HTTP/1.0\r\n\r\n")))
if err != nil {
b.Fatal(err)
}
b.RunParallel(func(pb *testing.PB) {
rw := httptest.NewRecorder()
for pb.Next() {
handleHi(rw, r)
reset(rw)
}
})
}
… …
执行测试，并分析结果:
$ go test -bench=Parallel -blockprofile=prof.block
PASS
BenchmarkHiParallel-4 5000000 305 ns/op

(pprof)
handleHi中MatchString这块是一个焦点，这里耗时较多。
优化方法（step8）：
//go-debug-profile-optimization/step8/demo.go
… …
var colorRxPool = sync.Pool{
New: func() interface{} { return regexp.MustCompile(`\w*$`) },
}
func handleHi(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
if !colorRxPool.Get().(*regexp.Regexp).MatchString(r.FormValue("color")) {
http.Error(w, "Optional color is invalid", http.StatusBadRequest)
return
}
visitNum := atomic.AddInt64(&visitors, 1)
buf := bufPool.Get().(*bytes.Buffer)
defer bufPool.Put(buf)
buf.Reset()
buf.WriteString("<h1 style='color: ")
buf.WriteString(r.FormValue("color"))
buf.WriteString("'>Welcome!</h1>You are visitor number ")
b := strconv.AppendInt(buf.Bytes(), int64(visitNum), 10)
b = append(b, '!')
w.Write(b)
}
… …

优化后，MatchString从43ms降到5.66ms。
