perf on fsck.erofs reports that z_erofs_load_compact_lcluster was
spending 20% of its time doing the div instruction. While the function
itself is ~40% of the fsck.erofs runtime. In the source code, it seems
that the compiler can't optimize the division by vcnt despite it only
holding powers of two.
Running a benchmark on a lzma compressed freebsd source tree
on x86 yields a ~3% increase in performance. The following
test was run locally on an x86 machine.
$ hyperfine -w 10 -p "echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches; sleep 1" \
"./fsck.erofs ./bsd.erofs.lzma"
