ida-tui.git/server, branch pre-codemodetui for headless idahttps://git.sl0p.foo/ida-tui.git/atom/server?h=pre-codemode2026-08-07T06:32:31Zdecomp_map: memoise obj_id -> ea for the whole function instead of only comparing against the previous column. dstr() was 79% of the tool (24us a call) and items interleave, so foo(a, b) flips call->arg->call and re-formatted an item already seen: 106594 calls for 15417 lines of bash. Also corrects run #30's claim that the duplicate ida_hexrays.decompile is what costs -- a warm decompile is 0.01ms.2026-08-07T06:32:31Zuseruser@clank2026-08-07T06:32:31Zurn:sha1:853d90c9866f3996a8ce66ac70f0559ccfad21c5

The page-freshness check carries the digest the client already holds (heads(expect=...)) instead of asking first and fetching afterwards. A page that has NOT changed costs one round trip as before; a page that HAS changed now costs one instead of two. Also corrects the record: the item-edit bench hang is pilot start-up flakiness, not the _prime/_grow concurrency I blamed it on — proved with a stack dump.2026-08-07T06:17:07Zuseruser@clank2026-08-07T06:17:07Zurn:sha1:b6646aa1c77d3244ec74cb525e7808c8dd8c153b

Three redundancies in the heads walk: item flags were fetched three times per head (row builder, _is_unknown via _advance, and _rows_for), get_func was called per head where a head is nearly always in the same function as the one before it, and the page digest rebuilt a tuple-of-tuples per row where one spans list is shared by ~45% of them. Cold heads 18.62 -> 17.77 us/row, warm 11.53 -> 10.87.2026-08-07T04:58:47Zuseruser@clank2026-08-07T04:58:47Zurn:sha1:7e4f0869a0aeffc155e9153b654c5880b2de0d86

heads(digest=True): the worker answers "does this page still render exactly as you hold it?" with a hash and a count instead of the page. After a rename nearly every page is unchanged, so the pickling, transfer, unpickling and Head rebuild are all skipped. Redone at PAGE granularity end to end, which fixes both bugs of the first attempt. lg_search 5628 -> 3959.2026-08-07T04:45:52Zuseruser@clank2026-08-07T04:45:52Zurn:sha1:d9e8fdb79136dfa32e01631aed8917c1cb9c1b54

Size the worker's per-line render cache to hold a segment's DISTINCT lines (16384 -> 65536, overridable with IDATUI_LINE_CACHE). This was a recorded dead end — it does nothing for a cold sweep — but the rename fix created a second-sweep workload, and re-rendering after a rename is now 21% cheaper. lg_search 7123 -> 5628.2026-08-07T04:23:25Zuseruser@clank2026-08-07T04:23:25Zurn:sha1:df88eceec9e7975f681fa0177300a4406afe36f1

decomp_map: stop sweeping every column three times over. It allocated three ctree_item_t SWIG objects PER COLUMN, swept the tagged line length (124 columns for a 23-column line), and called dstr() — which formats a whole 'EA: description' string — for every column even though consecutive columns report the same ctree item. Now: one item, no head/tail, visible columns only, and dstr() only when the item's obj_id changes.2026-08-07T02:48:25Zuseruser@clank2026-08-07T02:48:25Zurn:sha1:da1dfe8b2ba4d6795d85b645e7962a5388c180c0

Stop ida-pro-mcp installing a sys.setprofile hook around every tool call. Its deadline mechanism profiles every python call/return so a pure-python tool loop can be interrupted; our tools are call-heavy, so it taxed the whole backend 3.3x. Worker now sets IDA_MCP_TOOL_TIMEOUT_SEC=0 and arms the deadline itself with one polling watchdog thread + ida_kernwin.set_cancelled() (the half that actually frees the IDA main thread). Also rewrote _idatui_spans to jump between colour tags instead of walking characters (byte-identical over 258k real lines).2026-08-06T23:31:57Zuseruser@clank2026-08-06T23:31:57Zurn:sha1:93240e2f0c0d716758c43154dd37802f556ac6d0
