Ruvector Performance Optimization - Quick Start

TL;DR: All performance optimizations are implemented. Run the analysis suite to validate.

---

🚀 Quick Start (5 Minutes)

1. Build Optimized Version

cd /home/user/ruvector

# Build with maximum optimizations
RUSTFLAGS="-C target-cpu=native" cargo build --release

2. Run Comprehensive Analysis

cd profiling

# Install tools (one-time)
./scripts/install_tools.sh

# Run complete analysis (CPU, memory, benchmarks)
./scripts/run_all_analysis.sh

3. Review Results

# View comprehensive report
cat profiling/reports/COMPREHENSIVE_REPORT.md

# View flamegraphs
firefox profiling/flamegraphs/*.svg

# Check benchmark summary
cat profiling/benchmarks/summary.txt

🏗️ Build Options

Maximum Performance

RUSTFLAGS="-C target-cpu=native -C target-feature=+avx2,+fma" \
    cargo build --release

Profile-Guided Optimization

# See docs/optimization/BUILD_OPTIMIZATION.md for full PGO guide
RUSTFLAGS="-Cprofile-generate=/tmp/pgo-data" cargo build --release
./target/release/ruvector-bench
llvm-profdata merge -o /tmp/pgo-data/merged.profdata /tmp/pgo-data
RUSTFLAGS="-Cprofile-use=/tmp/pgo-data/merged.profdata" cargo build --release

✅ Validation Checklist

• Run baseline benchmarks: cargo bench -- --save-baseline before
• Generate flamegraphs: profiling/scripts/generate_flamegraph.sh
• Profile memory: profiling/scripts/memory_profile.sh
• Run comprehensive analysis: profiling/scripts/run_all_analysis.sh
• Review profiling reports in profiling/reports/
• Validate QPS targets (50K+)
• Validate latency targets (<1ms p50)
• Confirm recall >95%

🐛 Troubleshooting

Issue: Low Performance

Check:

1. CPU governor: cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_governor
2. Should be "performance", not "powersave"
3. Fix: sudo cpupower frequency-set --governor performance

Issue: Build Errors

Solution: Build without AVX2 if not supported:

cargo build --release
# Omit RUSTFLAGS with target-cpu=native

Issue: Missing Tools

Solution: Re-run tool installation:

cd profiling/scripts
./install_tools.sh

---

📞 Next Steps

1. Immediate: Run profiling/scripts/run_all_analysis.sh
2. Review: Check profiling/reports/COMPREHENSIVE_REPORT.md
3. Optimize: Identify bottlenecks from flamegraphs
4. Validate: Measure actual QPS and latency
5. Iterate: Refine based on profiling results
