Emacs slow and heavy? Profile, Benchmark your Emacs, and speed it up

1. Is your Emacs slow and heavy?

When you installed many Emacs packages, or you set up many configurations. You found your Emacs is slow, and heavy. I have this situation many times. I can feel my typing in Emacs Org Mode. when code completion, and search, generating results etc. This makes me dive into problems and find solution for it.

Here are some ways you can find out the reaons:

elp: Emacs built-in Emacs Lisp profiler
profiler: Emacs built-in profiler
esup: Emacs start-up profiler

1.1. elp

ID: a5357d0e-a3e2-46c8-8cbb-8f51117e5121

1.1.1. workflow

ID: 05782c93-bcee-4c8d-852c-822a213ad0ab

Profile the code while executing the function that takes a long time.

instrument code
- instrument package [M-x elp-instrument-package RET <package> RET]
  
  Like [M-x elp-instrument-package RET org- RET]
- instrument function [M-x elp-instrument-function RET <function> RET]
execute code you want to profiling.
show results with [M-x elp-results].

For example:

use elp to see what is slowing down elpy.

You can start monitoring the whole elpy package with:

(elp-instrument-package "elpy-")

#+RESULTS[<2018-10-18 Thu 14:16> 195bb60d4648549a9e035f99aebac8fd7feaa2a0]:

do your time-consuming operations, and get a report with [M-x elp-results].

1.1.2. `[C-h p elp RET]`

ID: e5cd4631-becc-4b9d-b833-bd82705c66bc

If you want to profile a bunch of functions, set elp-function-list to the list of symbols, then do a M-x elp-instrument-list. This hacks those functions so that profiling information is recorded whenever they are called. To print out the current results, use M-x elp-results. If you want output to go to standard-output instead of a separate buffer, setq elp-use-standard-output to non-nil. With elp-reset-after-results set to non-nil, profiling information will be reset whenever the results are displayed. You can also reset all profiling info at any time with M-x elp-reset-all.

You can also instrument all functions in a package, provided that the package follows the GNU coding standard of a common textual prefix. Use M-x elp-instrument-package for this.

If you want to sort the results, set elp-sort-by-function to some predicate function. The three most obvious choices are predefined: elp-sort-by-call-count, elp-sort-by-average-time, and elp-sort-by-total-time. Also, you can prune from the output, all functions that have been called fewer than a given number of times by setting elp-report-limit.

Elp can instrument byte-compiled functions just as easily as interpreted functions, but it cannot instrument macros. However, when you redefine a function (e.g. with eval-defun), you'll need to re-instrument it with M-x elp-instrument-function. This will also reset profiling information for that function. Elp can handle interactive functions (i.e. commands), but of course any time spent idling for user prompts will show up in the timing results.

You can also designate a `master' function. Profiling times will be gathered for instrumented functions only during execution of this master function. Thus, if you have some defuns like:

(defun foo () (do-something-time-intensive)) (defun bar () (foo)) (defun baz () (bar) (foo))

and you want to find out the amount of time spent in bar and foo, but only during execution of bar, make bar the master. The call of foo from baz will not add to foo's total timing sums. Use M-x elp-set-master and M-x elp-unset-master to utilize this feature. Only one master function can be set at a time.

You can restore any function's original function definition with elp-restore-function. The other instrument, restore, and reset functions are provided for symmetry.

Here is a list of variable you can use to customize elp: elp-function-list elp-reset-after-results elp-sort-by-function elp-report-limit

Here is a list of the interactive commands you can use: elp-instrument-function elp-restore-function elp-instrument-list elp-restore-list elp-instrument-package elp-restore-all elp-reset-function elp-reset-list elp-reset-all elp-set-master elp-unset-master elp-results

Note that there are plenty of factors that could make the times reported unreliable, including the accuracy and granularity of your system clock, and the overhead spent in lisp calculating and recording the intervals. I figure the latter is pretty constant, so while the times may not be entirely accurate, I think they'll give you a good feel for the relative amount of work spent in the various lisp routines you are profiling. Note further that times are calculated using wall-clock time, so other system load will affect accuracy too.
