packfile: skip unpacking object header for disk size requests
While most of the object info requests for a packed object require us to unpack its headers, reading its disk size doesn't. We still unpack the object header in that case though, which is unnecessary work. Skip reading the header if only the disk size is requested. This leads to a small speedup when reading disk size, only. The following benchmark was done in the Git repository: Benchmark 1: ./git rev-list --disk-usage HEAD (rev = HEAD~) Time (mean ± σ): 105.2 ms ± 0.6 ms [User: 91.4 ms, System: 13.3 ms] Range (min … max): 103.7 ms … 106.0 ms 27 runs Benchmark 2: ./git rev-list --disk-usage HEAD (rev = HEAD) Time (mean ± σ): 96.7 ms ± 0.4 ms [User: 86.2 ms, System: 10.0 ms] Range (min … max): 96.2 ms … 98.1 ms 30 runs Summary ./git rev-list --disk-usage HEAD (rev = HEAD) ran 1.09 ± 0.01 times faster than ./git rev-list --disk-usage HEAD (rev = HEAD~) Signed-off-by: Patrick Steinhardt <ps@pks.im> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
