2019-03-05stdlib: Correct and optimize pretty printing of stringsHans Bolinder
Avoid traversing all of the list/string when only part of it will be used. An explicit check that the list is flat is needed since string:slice() accepts deep lists and more.

2019-02-22Clarify the atomic guarantees for ets:update_counter()Björn Gustavsson
The phrasing "no process can access the ETS table in the middle of the operation" implies that the entire table is looked during the operation, which is not true if `write_concurrency` is enabled.

Fix bug in binary:encode_unsigned causing a read of uninitialized memory
2019-02-14stdlib: Optimize formatted printing of termsHans Bolinder
Try calling iolist_size() before calling string:length(). The reason is that calls to string:length/1 are slow when the argument is not a list of integers (or contains UNICODE).

2019-01-31Optimize calendar:gregorian_days_to_date/1Stanislav Mayorov
This patch improves the performance of calendar:gregorian_days_to_date/1 by changing the algorithm for finding the year to log-logarithmic. The old implementation has linear complexity, which makes function too slow for large values. For example: There is an API that allows you to create events for future dates. There are users of this API who, for some reasons, choose dates very far in the future. In such conditions, function works very slow. New implementation based on interpolation search, takes 1 or 2 iterations at most cases and free from such a flaw. A unit test was also developed to illustrate the speed of a function at large values.

2018-11-29stdlib: Let calendar:system_time_to_rfc3339() keep fractionsHans Bolinder
RFC3339 mentions in paragraph 5.1 that if certain conditions are fulfilled, then sorting date and time strings results in a time-ordered sequence. One of the conditions is that the strings must have the same number of fractional second digits. This commits makes sure this is indeed the case.
2018-11-21Fix inadvertently suppressed warning for unused variableBjörn Gustavsson
An external fun could inadvertently suppress warnings for unused variables, such as in this example: bug() -> BugVar = foo(), if true -> fun m:f/1 end. There would be no warning that `BugVar` was unused. The bug was introduced in ff432e262e652, which was the commit that extended external funs to allow variables. https://bugs.erlang.org/browse/ERL-762

2018-11-05Optimize operator '--' and yield on large inputsJohn Högberg
The removal set now uses a red-black tree instead of an array on large inputs, decreasing runtime complexity from `n*n` to `n*log(n)`. It will also exit early when there are no more items left in the removal set, drastically improving performance and memory use when the items to be removed are present near the head of the list. This got a lot more complicated than before as the overhead of always using a red-black tree was unacceptable when either of the inputs were small, but this compromise has okay-to-decent performance regardless of input size.

beam_lib: Clarify the beam() type in code and documentation OTP-15378
2018-10-19beam_lib: Remove obsolete module() from the beam() typeBjörn Gustavsson
The type `beam()` in the `beam_lib` module is confusing: -type beam() :: module() | file:filename() | binary(). It says that the module name can be used to identify the BEAM module to be accessed, but passing in the module name only works if the BEAM file is located in the current working directory because the module is not searched for in the code path. The reason that it is allowed to pass in the module name as an atom is for backward compatibility. A long time ago, atoms instead of strings were used as filenames. For that reason, `filename` and `file` still accept atoms as filenames (although the practice is frown upon). `beam_lib` accepts an atom as the filename for the same reason. To remove the confusion, remove `module()` from the type and the mention of it in the documentation. Code that uses an atom as a filename will still work, but Dialyzer will issue a warning. https://bugs.erlang.org/browse/ERL-696
