Avoid allocating when parsing \u{...} literals. #50052

nnethercote · 2018-04-18T12:07:04Z

char_lit uses an allocation in order to ignore '_' chars in \u{...}
literals. This patch changes it to not do that by processing the chars
more directly.

This improves various rustc-perf benchmark measurements by up to 6%,
particularly regex, futures, clap, coercions, hyper, and encoding.

rustc-perf results, on a stage 2 build with jemalloc disabled:

Why not just lit[3..idx].bytes() {

Why don't you replace that hard cast "as" with:

let c = char::from(c);

nnethercote · 2018-04-18T23:04:01Z

Could we do the same for the integer_lit function too thinking

char_lit is much hotter, but I see in my profiles that integer_lit is moderately hot for a couple of benchmarks. So I'll do that too.

nnethercote · 2018-04-18T23:15:26Z

Actually,integer_lit is a bit harder, so I'd prefer to do that in a follow-up.

I finally did integer_lit (and float_lit) in #55384.
