BlueGreenProcess

A library that solves GC bottlenecks with multi-process.

Install the gem and add to the application's Gemfile by executing:

$ bundle add blue_green_process

If bundler is not being used to manage dependencies, install the gem by executing:

$ gem install blue_green_process

BlueGreenProcess.configure do |config|
  config.after_fork = ->{ puts 'forked!' }
end

process = BlueGreenProcess.new(
  worker_instance: BlueGreenProcess::BaseWorker.new,
  max_work: 14,
)

40.times do
  process.work
end

sleep(1)

process.shutdown
# or BlueGreenProcess.terminate_workers_immediately
Process.waitall

• Hashが入っている'BlueGreenProcess::SharedVariable.data' の値はmaster process, work processで共有します.
• 共有するHashのキーは config.shared_variables で許可する必要があります
• プロセスを入れ替えるタイミングで値の復元とダンプを行います
• JSONでシリアライズしているので共有できるオブジェクトはプリミティブ型に限定されます
• GCの時間を軽減するために整数型だけを共有するとパフォーマンスに良さそう
• config.shared_variables に最初から入っている extend_run_on_this_process は消すことができません

BlueGreenProcess.configure do |config|
  config.shared_variables = [:count]
end

worker_class = Class.new(BlueGreenProcess::BaseWorker) do
  def initialize(*); end

  def work(label)
    BlueGreenProcess::SharedVariable.data['count'] += 1
    puts "#{label}'s data['count'] is #{BlueGreenProcess::SharedVariable.data['count']}"
  end
end

BlueGreenProcess::SharedVariable.data['count'] = 0
process = BlueGreenProcess.new(worker_instance: worker_class.new, max_work: 3)
process.work # blue
process.work # green
process.work # blue
BlueGreenProcess::SharedVariable.data['count']

outputs

blue's data['count'] is 1
blue's data['count'] is 2
blue's data['count'] is 3
green's data['count'] is 4
green's data['count'] is 5
green's data['count'] is 6
blue's data['count'] is 7
blue's data['count'] is 8
blue's data['count'] is 9

• workerクラスの中で、BlueGreenProcess::SharedVariable.extend_run_on_this_processにtrueをセットするともう一度同じプロセスで処理を行います
  • 次の実行でtrueを明示しない限りはプロセスを切り替えます
• 単一プロセスでの実行を延長するとGC.startを実行しなくなります
  • 長時間にわたって延長する時は呼び出し側でGC.startを実行してください

BlueGreenProcess.configure do |config|
  config.shared_variables = [:count]
end

worker_class = Class.new(BlueGreenProcess::BaseWorker) do
  def initialize(*); end

  def work(label)
    BlueGreenProcess::SharedVariable.data['count'] += 1
    BlueGreenProcess::SharedVariable.extend_run_on_this_process = true
    puts "#{label}'s data['count'] is #{BlueGreenProcess::SharedVariable.data['count']}"
  end
end

BlueGreenProcess::SharedVariable.data['count'] = 0
process = BlueGreenProcess.new(worker_instance: worker_class.new, max_work: 3)
process.work # blue
process.work # blue
process.work # blue
process.work # blue

パフォーマンスの解析に使えます

• プロセスを最後に入れ替えた時にかかった時間を返す

プロセスをforkした時に実行する

BlueGreenProcess.configure do |config|
  config.after_fork = ->{ puts 'forked!' }
end

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and the created tag, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.

• 処理は直列で行う
• processが行う処理内容は引数を含めて固定
• A processがinactiveになった時に行うGC.startに時間がかかると、次にA processがbe_activeになったらレスポンスが遅れる. 構造上の仕様.
  • これが起きる場合はオブジェクトの生成を減らすとか、blue, greenではなくプロセスのプールを作ってプロセスがGCに時間を費やせるようにする
• workerプロセスでエラーが起きたらmasterプロセスにそのエラーが伝わり、workerプロセスは終了します

• shutdownしないでプロセスを停止したときにSIGINTを受け取りたい
