Where's the evidence of "frequent GC" in this profile?
(And "memory profile" has nothing to do with memory usage, contrary to
popular belief.)

> GCing.
I believe you. But showing the number of GCs (e.g., using the
variable gcs-done) would tell us the story more convincingly.
Alternatively, if you can share an Org file where this could be seen,
please do.

So, believe me. Or not, as you please. I said where the Org file is at
the beginning.

Ah, okay, sorry for missing that.
I tried to scroll through that with Emacs 30 from master, and here's
the CPU profile:
20 74% Automatic GC
4 14% - command-execute
4 14% - call-interactively
2 7% - funcall-interactively
2 7% - scroll-up-command
2 7% scroll-up
2 7% - byte-code
2 7% - read-extended-command
2 7% - read-extended-command-1
2 7% - completing-read
2 7% - completing-read-default
2 7% - read-from-minibuffer
2 7% redisplay_internal (C function)
3 11% redisplay_internal (C function)
0 0% ...
I get roughly one GC cycle per full scroll top to bottom.
Interestingly, bug-reference-fontify is not in the profile, perhaps
because it's lower-resolution than on your system with "memory"
profiler.
And here's the profile with bug-reference-mode turned off:
15 48% Automatic GC
8 25% redisplay_internal (C function)
8 25% - command-execute
8 25% - call-interactively
4 12% - funcall-interactively
3 9% - scroll-down-command
3 9% scroll-down
1 3% - scroll-up-command
1 3% scroll-up
4 12% - byte-code
3 9% - read--expression
3 9% - read-from-minibuffer
2 6% redisplay_internal (C function)
1 3% - read-extended-command
1 3% - read-extended-command-1
1 3% - completing-read
1 3% - completing-read-default
1 3% - read-from-minibuffer
1 3% redisplay_internal (C function)
0 0% ...
This does fewer GCs (about 75% of what I see with bug-reference-mode
turned ON), but not by a large factor.
Looking at bug-reference-fontify, I see that it conses a string -- but
it only does that when it finds a match for bug-reference-bug-regexp,
and there are no such matches in igc.org on the branch, AFAICT.
So I'm not sure which part(s) of bug-reference.el make a lot of
garbage, or why.
Ihor, any ideas?

This maybe completely wrong, but my suspicion was that bug-reference
somehow triggers Org fontification, which creates more garbage. If
that's possible...

Maybe bug-reference-fontify should return a list (jit-lock-bounds beg
end)? Looks to me like if it doesn't we could end up fontifying the
whole buffer for Org. See jit-lock--run-functions.
Not sure but the behaviour looks like somethign like that could be
happening.

Indeed, that's what I'm doing now. I'm not entirely sure if that fixes
the GC issue but it's certainly a good idea anyhow.
Please report back if it helps.

I'm afraid it didn't help yet. It's still GCing constantly, without
doing anything.

FYI, I have no problems on your file and I do have bug-reference-mode
enabled in all buffers.
Do you have a recipe starting from emacs -Q?

But anyhow, I don't see how bug-reference-fontify could be so costly
GC-wise...
FWIW, I think goto-address-mode (buttonizing URLs and email addresses)
will probably have the same effect, at least the code looks pretty
similar. Can you confirm?
I'll have a look at you sample file tomorrow. How do you make GCs
"visible" so that I can see when excessive GCing starts/stops?

It is not by itself, AFAICT. Org fontification allocates which ich not a
problem normally, but with bug-reference active, it is triggered over
and over again.
Interesting observation:
I just built master without native compilation because that's faster.
With .elcs only, I don't seem to get the constant GCs with
9ebe6aa5f1092241a98e0a16db918e3dc1062f1c which is before your fix.
With native compilation I do.
Just double-checked that this is indeed the case. Now it gets
interesting :-/. This is on macOS 14.5, arm64, libgccjit 14.1.

Yes, goto-address-mode has the same effect.

You can use the attached patch to log GC messages in *Messages* which
makes it easier to see. Then load the Org file, expand all nodes (S-TAB
as needed), move a bit around, and see it happening. And set
garbage-collection-messages to t of course.

I've now checked out the scratch/igc branch and opened admin/igc.org
with the current emacs (master branch) with native compilation + your
gc-messages patch and garbage-collection-messages set to t. I cannot
reproduce the problem.
I've also added a (message "BRF") as first expression to
bug-reference-fontify. After scrolling the buffer from top to bottom,
the function won't be called anymore unless I edit some text. I assume
that in your case, bug-reference-fontify and font-lock-fontify-region
(the latter including the Org fontification) are run over and over again
unless you remove the former...
I have no explanation. Especially with admin/igc.org,
bug-reference-fontify is essentially a no-op. There are no bug
references (text matching bug-reference-bug-regexp), so it's just a
regex search with no match and there are no overlays created or moved.
How can a failed regex search somehow trigger another jit-lock cycle
(and only with native compilation on MacOS)?

Alright. Then you can probably even simplify the issue with
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
(defun i-do-nothing (start end) nil)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
and then M-: (jit-lock-register #'i-do-nothing) RET in some buffer,
right?

Yes, same problem. In a native build with current HEAD,
984fb346fdf0d5ec9eaea6126aad0bea8823b8a3.
As I mentioned, no problem without native compilation. I guess you have
an x86 cpu? Just to make sure...

Another data point: when building with native-comp-speed 0, the
problem is also gone.

Same here. The issue went from "bug-reference-mode leading to constant
GC-ing" to "any (additional) function (including a no-op function) in
jit-lock-functions leads to constant GC-ing on MacOS but only with
native compilation and only when native-comp-speed > 0." I feel
responsible for bug-reference-mode but Mac-specific issues during
redisplay that only happen with native-compilation are out of by
expertise, sorry.

I'll be happy to look into it but I don't use MacOS and AFAIR Tassilo
mentioned it's not reproducible on x86 (GNU/Linux?).
I'll give it try here as well, but also to me the reproducer itself is
not 100% clear.

Okay, so this is what I tried:
I bootstrapped two Emacs from current master (7be66d8223e) one
--with-native-compilation=yes the other --with-native-compilation=no and
boths with Gerd patch applied.
Also I checkout current scratch/igc (2343d55dff4) to get igc.org.
I then tried to run with boths native/non-native emacsen with:
.../src/emacs -eval '(setq garbage-collection-messages t)' -Q ~/emacs4/admin/igc.org
Once started looking in *Messages* I see 7 GC cycles in the the
non-native build and 5 in the native one, also I can scroll without
issues or other GC cycles.
Note that only during the first start the native copiled Emacs did a
number of GC cycles more to jit some code but I guess that's expected.
Am I trying to repruduce this correctly?
Thanks

Yes. And you also need to put some function in addition to
font-lock-fontify-region in jit-lock-functions, either by enabling
bug-reference-mode, goto-address-mode, or simply defining
(defun i-do-nothing (start end) nil)
and then M-: (jit-lock-register #'i-do-nothing) RET in the igc.org
buffer.

Almost. After loading the Org file, please M-x goto-address-mode RET, or
M-x bug-reference-mode RET. In fact, registering anything with
jit-lock-register seems to have the same effect. Tassilo posted a
do-nothing example.
For me that is, because no one not on macOS/arm64 seems to see that.

Okay I tried both your suggestion both Gerd's one on the native compiled
instance with no effect on the number of GC cycles (I'm on GNU/Linux X86-64).
The best I can do is to try later this afternoon on GNU/Linux AArch64
and see if something changes.
Thanks
Andrea

Thanks. I'm still suspecting either macOS or libgccjit 14 on arm64, BTW,
or a combination. But I guess I already mentioned that :-).

Right I repeated the test on AArch64 using.
This is the content of my *Messages* after opening igc.org, defining and
registering 'i-do-nothing', and scrolling a bit up and down.
=====
For information about GNU Emacs and the GNU system, type C-h C-a.
Garbage collecting... [25 times]
i-do-nothing
(jit-lock-function)
Garbage collecting...done
===
We see some more GC cycles compared to X86_64 at the beginning but I
guess that's not the focus here because after 'i-do-nothing' is
registered I see only a GC cycle and nothing more (even if I scroll).
So to me this all looks good.
PS On this machine I'm on libgccjit 13.2.1.

Thanks. I'm currently waiting for a new GCC/libgccjit release which I
think should happen relatively soon. I'll report back when that happens.
Much more I cannot do either ATM, I'm afraid.

Maybe you could try my same libgccjit version, this would confirm if
it's a libgccjit version specific bug or it's OS specific.
In case you can build any libgccjit easily from the gcc repo following
[1].
Another approach would be to add the ";; no-native-compile: t" cookie by
bisection to our .el files to discover if a specific compilation unit
being native compiled is causing the issue you observe.
Thanks

Homebrew libgccjit unforunately only supports a pre-built version 14, or
--HEAD which so far never built successfully.
My own attempts to build from GCC git also failed so far because of
conflicting dependencies, and I didn't want to mess that much with my
system. Also, I found GCC's use, or non-use, of branches and tags pretty
confusing, and couldn't find an up-to-date description how that's
intended to work. Anyway, I've given up on that.

I thought about something like that to at least find the place where
things go astray, but - besides the fact that that would take me forever
- in the end I would be in the same position that I was with igc: a
thousandt lines arm64 assembly, C code that looks okay, and so on...
So, won't happen, sorry :-)

I think just everything in releases/gcc-* is supposed to be release
ready, but there are also tags (ex refs/tags/releases/gcc-14.1.0).
Anyway I compiled libgccjit based on current releases/gcc-14 and run on
my AArch64 testbench without being able to observe the issue.

I don't think so, by bissection is typically few steps and once the CU
is indentified we tipically narrow down the function. With this
technique in the past we worked on non trivial bugs with success.

No worries I'm not the one affected ;)
