pennae	2799fe4cdb	enable LTO in optimized builds ... gives 2-5% performance improvement across a board of tests. LTO is broken when using clang; some libs link fine while others crash the linker with a segfault in the llvm linker plugin. 🙁	2022-03-03 17:47:49 +01:00

toonn	400d70a3a9	doc: Add detailed uninstall section for macOS ... The multi-user installation on macOS, which is now the only option, has gotten complicated enough that it discourages some users from checking Nix out for fear of being left with a "dirty" system. Detailed uninstallation instructions should make this less of an issue.	2022-02-22 16:28:24 +01:00

Profpatsch	a51c457204	Release Notes 2.4: add --indirect no-op change ... Since 00d25e8457 which was first included in nix 2.4. It is a backwards-compatible change since the flag will just be ignored.	2022-01-12 23:19:15 +01:00
Theodor René Carlsen	89b4df8d92	Add link to explanation when introducing a new operator ... The logical implication operator is included in this section but never explained. It might stump new readers with a pretty uncommon operator, and it's never referenced explicitly.	2022-01-11 17:01:43 +01:00
pennae	00c993f48b	add zipAttrsWith primop ... nixpkgs can save a good bit of eval memory with this primop. zipAttrsWith is used quite a bit around nixpkgs (eg in the form of recursiveUpdate), but the most costly application for this primop is in the module system. it improves the implementation of zipAttrsWith from nixpkgs by not checking an attribute multiple times if it occurs more than once in the input list, allocates less values and set elements, and just avoids many a temporary object in general. nixpkgs has a more generic version of this operation, zipAttrsWithNames, but this version is only used once so isn't suitable for being the base of a new primop. if it were to be used more we should add a second primop instead.	2022-01-03 21:05:53 +01:00

Silvan Mosberger	90700736c7	Introduce builtins.groupBy primop ... This function is very useful in nixpkgs, but its implementation in Nix itself is rather slow due to it requiring a lot of attribute set and list appends.	2021-12-02 21:54:51 +01:00
