From e5ab12366daed65ff09cd0b1bbbef84abc59c8f8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alan Agius <17563226+alan-agius4@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Tue, 8 Sep 2026 13:14:33 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] perf(@angular/build): avoid full JSON parsing when updating sourcemap ignore list Previously, the sourcemap ignore-list plugin parsed the entire generated sourcemap buffer into a JavaScript object via JSON.parse and re-serialized it via JSON.stringify to inject x_google_ignoreList. In typical applications, sourcemap files range from 2 MB to 10 MB+ each. The sources array constitutes less than 1% of the total file size, with the vast majority of the payload comprised of sourcesContent and VLQ-encoded mappings. Parsing and re-stringifying this large structure generates significant V8 heap churn (5x to 6x transient allocations per sourcemap) and incurs 20 ms to 60 ms of single-threaded blocking time per chunk. To eliminate redundant parsing and serialization overhead: - Scan the buffer to extract and parse only the sources JSON array. - Determine the node modules ignore list indices using the extracted sources array. - Splice the serialized x_google_ignoreList property directly into the output buffer adjacent to the root object delimiter without parsing or allocating intermediate strings for sourcesContent or mappings. - Gracefully fall back to full JSON parsing and serialization if non-standard JSON formatting is encountered. In benchmarks on 2.4 MB to 10.4 MB sourcemap files, ignore-list processing dropped from 20.3 ms to 0.60 ms (33.9x faster) and 60.2 ms to 2.27 ms (26.5x faster), respectively, while reducing heap churn by more than 99%. --- .../esbuild/sourcemap-ignorelist-plugin.ts | 120 ++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 120 insertions(+) diff --git a/packages/angular/build/src/tools/esbuild/sourcemap-ignorelist-plugin.ts b/packages/angular/build/src/tools/esbuild/sourcemap-ignorelist-plugin.ts index c10c72b7151c..7bfc4c4a9f6a 100644 --- a/packages/angular/build/src/tools/esbuild/sourcemap-ignorelist-plugin.ts +++ b/packages/angular/build/src/tools/esbuild/sourcemap-ignorelist-plugin.ts @@ -21,6 +21,16 @@ const IGNORE_LIST_ID = 'x_google_ignoreList'; */ const NODE_MODULE_BYTES = Buffer.from('node_modules/', 'utf-8'); +/** + * The UTF-8 bytes for the "sources" property key used to locate the sources array. + */ +const SOURCES_KEY_BYTES = Buffer.from('"sources"', 'utf-8'); + +/** + * The UTF-8 bytes for the ignore list identifier to check if already present. + */ +const IGNORE_LIST_BYTES = Buffer.from(`"${IGNORE_LIST_ID}"`, 'utf-8'); + /** * Minimal sourcemap object required to create the ignore list. */ @@ -29,6 +39,83 @@ interface SourceMap { [IGNORE_LIST_ID]?: number[]; } +function extractSources(contents: Buffer): string[] | undefined { + const sourcesKeyIndex = contents.indexOf(SOURCES_KEY_BYTES); + if (sourcesKeyIndex === -1) { + return undefined; + } + + // Find the ':' after "sources" + let colonIndex = sourcesKeyIndex + SOURCES_KEY_BYTES.length; + while (colonIndex < contents.length && contents[colonIndex] <= 0x20) { + colonIndex++; + } + if (contents[colonIndex] !== 0x3a /* : */) { + return undefined; + } + + // Find the '[' for the array + let arrayStartIndex = colonIndex + 1; + while (arrayStartIndex < contents.length && contents[arrayStartIndex] <= 0x20) { + arrayStartIndex++; + } + if (contents[arrayStartIndex] !== 0x5b /* [ */) { + return undefined; + } + + // Scan until matching ']' + let depth = 0; + let inString = false; + for (let i = arrayStartIndex; i < contents.length; i++) { + const byte = contents[i]; + if (inString) { + if (byte === 0x5c /* \ */) { + i++; // skip escaped character + } else if (byte === 0x22 /* " */) { + inString = false; + } + } else if (byte === 0x22 /* " */) { + inString = true; + } else if (byte === 0x5b /* [ */) { + depth++; + } else if (byte === 0x5d /* ] */) { + depth--; + if (depth === 0) { + try { + const slice = contents.toString('utf-8', arrayStartIndex, i + 1); + const parsed = JSON.parse(slice); + + return Array.isArray(parsed) && parsed.every((s) => typeof s === 'string') + ?
