Shootout/Knucleotide

< Shootout

Categories: Code

This is a ShootoutEntry for [1].

[This page is completely unreadable. Would it make sense to put the programs into their own sub-pages?] [ Personally, I agree - Perhaps the original writers would care to do so? BrettGiles 02:24, 15 February 2007 (UTC)]

About the k-nucleotide benchmark

Each program should

We use FASTA files generated by the fasta benchmark as input for this benchmark. Note: the file may include both lowercase and uppercase codes.

Correct output for this 100KB input file (generated with the fasta program N = 10000), is

   A 30.284
   T 29.796
   C 20.312
   G 19.608
   AA 9.212
   AT 8.950
   TT 8.948
   TA 8.936
   CA 6.166
   CT 6.100
   AC 6.086
   TC 6.042
   AG 6.036
   GA 5.968
   TG 5.868
   GT 5.798
   CC 4.140
   GC 4.044
   CG 3.906
   GG 3.798
   562     GGT
   152     GGTA
   15      GGTATT
   0       GGTATTTTAATT
   0       GGTATTTTAATTTATAGT

In practice, less brute-force would be used to calculate k-nucleotide frequencies, for example Virus Classification using k-nucleotide Frequencies and A Fast Algorithm for the Exhaustive Analysis of 12-Nucleotide-Long DNA Sequences. Applications to Human Genomics (105KB pdf).

This shootout benchmark has really nailed a deficiency in the standard libraries. We could work around not having fast ascii strings with a few extra functions, but not having a fast associative data structure is another matter. We cannot win this one on speed; this entry's approach cannot win this on lines of code; and memory usage is dominated by the data. That is why I feel the main goal is making a new entry that reads well and avoids the memory leak of the old entry. -- ChrisKuklewicz

1 Plan

Ok, where do we go from here:

 * Can we write a legal Map-based version of Ketil's Trie somehow?

-- DonStewart

I converted it naively and you need to benchmark it, see sections 5.1 and 5.2 for map and association list version. -- ChrisKuklewicz

2 Benchmarks

We must test all entries on N=250k, as that is what they use in the shootout

N=250,000. Debian Linux/x86.

Brian Sniffen's Map #1 30.7s 86M -funbox-strict-fields
Einar's original 24.8s 260M
Generalised Trie #1 23.8s 93M +RTS -K32m removed
Brian Sniffen's Map #2 21.7s 86M -funbox-strict-fields
Chris's current entry 18.5s 65M
Generalised Trie #2 13.8s 100M +RTS -K32m removed
Generalised Trie #2 4.1s 100M +RTS -K32m -H100m removed
Ketil's Trie 3.6s 76M -funbox-strict-fields
Generalised Trie w/ Assoc List #2 3.5s 100M -funbox-strict-fields

2.1 More benchmarks

On a powerbook G4:

It is important to add "+RTS -A100m -RTS" to all the entries. This would help the entry in the shootout, as well.

PROGRAM Normal (GC%) -A (GC%)
Data.Hashtable 59.28s (41.6%) 44.58s ( 9.7%)
Brain Sniffen's Map, v2 66.67s (62.2%) 30.48s (16.0%)
Ketil's Trie 15.85s (84.0%) 5.04s (43.7%)
Ketil's Trie -A800m - 3.33s ( 0.0%)

3 On mutable data structures in Haskell

This benchmark is completely bottlenecked by Data.Hashtable (in GHC 6.4.1) and this discussion is based on the assumption that I am using Hashtable optimally. I downloaded the GHD 0.17 compiler and the DMD entry to benchmark on my machine. The DMD entry uses the "associative arrays" built into the language: "int[char[]] frequencies" and places second (runs in 3.0s). The winning entry is interesting, since the c-code does not have a hash table, and so it uses #include "../../Include/simple_hash.h" which pulls in a dead simple, inline, string to int hashtable and runs in 2s.

The entry below runs 16 slower than the DMD entry on my powerbook G4. Profiling shows the bottleneck. I downloaded simple_hash.h and shamelessly optimized it to replace Data.Hashtable for exactly this benchmark code. This sped up the proposed entry by a factor of 4.1 so that it is now about a factor of 4 slower than the DMD entry. This shows that Data.Hashtable is doing *at least* four times more work that is needed for this usage pattern. And even with my over specialized hash table, Haskell is almost 50% slower than OCaml's "module H = Hashtbl.Make(S)" (note that I my code uses the same hash function as OCaml). Unfortunately I cannot submit this optimized hash table entry to the shootout.

The only mutable data structure that come with GHC besides arrays is Data.Hashtable, which is not comptetitive with OCaml Hashtbl or DMD's associative arrays (unless there is something great hidden under Data.Graph). Is there any hope for GHC 6.6? Does anyone have pointers to an existing library at all? Perl and Python and Lua also have excellent built in hashtable capabilities. Where is a good library for Haskell?

6 Data.Map #1

I built the following first using naive IO, and very closely following the OCaml implementation. It ran it about 85 seconds. I then lifted the Seq and advancePtr code from Chris and Don's "Haskell #2" entry. It now runs in under 4 seconds on my machine, faster than anything but the C and D entries. Note that "updateCount" is there to satisfy the shootout's demand for an updater function. --BrianSniffen

Note: don't submit entries with {- -} style comments. They aren't lexed correctly on the shootout, and end up contributing towards our line count score. Use -- comments only -- DonStewart

6.1 Data.Map #2

The problem with version 1 was the foldr in updateCounts. Changing to foldl' solves that. But this replacement for updateCounts makes it faster.

7 KetilMalde : Trie-based entry

This entry uses a lazy suffix trie (loosely based on Kurtz/Giegerich: "A comparison of imperative and purely functional suffix tree constructions").

I guess this is considered cheating, since it is the easy and natural way to do it :-) While the specifications say "hashtable", I interpret it to mean "standard associative data structure" - so using Data.Map would be okay, and perhaps even the true Haskell way. The reason I still consider this entry cheating, is that it relies on lazyness to compute only the requested frequencies, instead of, as the benchmark specifies calculation of -- and subsequent discarding -- all frequencies of the given word lengths.

If I were a mean spirited person (and I am not, no, really), I would point this out as yet another benchmark artificially penalizing a language where it is easy and natural to avoid unnecessary computation. As it is, this can perhaps go in the "Interesting Alternatives" category (as Chris points out).

Note that most of the time is now spent parsing input, if somebody wanted to further improve it, using FPS or similar would be the way to go.

In my opinion, we can always exploit lazyness. If a spec requires us to compute something that isn't used, we should just let our language take care of this. The spec can always be changed if they want to explicitly penalise lazy languages (which I don't think they do -- they just don't think of the alternatives). So, lazyness is definitely ok. -- Don
