As an user I like to have shorter cxx-plugin scanner times.

Hint:
At the moment we are using only one thread for analysis. Most of the current analysis time is spend in CxxSquidSensor.execute

Running scanner.scanFiles in a thread pool could speed-up the analysis.

Sample:
https://github.com/SonarSource/sonar-python/pull/106/files

ivangalkin added a commit to ivangalkin/sonar-cxx that referenced this issue Jun 25, 2018
* if property set, print duration of each SquidCheck to `sonar.cxx.squidprofiler.out=<abs path>`
* currently only duration is logged
* for parallel execution we can log start/stop time also, in order to check
  the utilization level (see SonarOpenCommunity#1493)

* output: semi-JSON format for later python analysis (e.g. in http://jupyter.org/)
  `{ "visitor": "%s", "source_file": "%s", "duration_ms": "%d" }`
ivangalkin added a commit to ivangalkin/sonar-cxx that referenced this issue Jun 27, 2018
* introduce the hidden property sonar.cxx.squidprofiler.out=<path>
* if property set, decorate each AstVisitor (all squid checks, CPD, highlighting etc), so that it tracks the elapsed time per source file
* dump this duration as well as other invocation details to <path> in JSON format
* currently only duration is logged
* for parallel execution we can log start/stop time also, in order to check the CPU utilization level (see SonarOpenCommunity#1493)
* output: semi-JSON format for python analysis (e.g. in http://jupyter.org/)
  `{ "visitor": "%s", "source_file": "%s", "duration_ms": "%d" }`

I would also like to see this feature. Our project spends 95% of its time in the CxxSquidSensor. I can try to work on this if it is still desired.

Hi @neontty,

help is always welcome!

Think there are still many things possible to improve speed:

  • precompiled header support
  • pragma once support
  • thread pool support

I’m not sure if preprocessing and AST creation can be paralyzed? Maybe you have to look first to https://github.com/SonarSource/sslr if it is possible.

Regards
