Breakdown of growth, maintenance, and fixes effort over time.
Bugs introduced vs. fixed over time.
Reclassifies engineering effort based on bug attribution. Commits that introduced bugs are retrospectively counted as poor investments.
Investment Quality reclassifies engineering effort based on bug attribution data. Commits identified as buggy origins (those that introduced bugs later fixed by someone) have their grow and maintenance time moved into the Wasted Time category. Their waste (fix commits) remains counted as productive. All other commits retain their standard classification: grow is productive, maintenance is maintenance, and waste (fixes) is productive.
The standard model classifies commits as Growth, Maintenance, or Fixes. Investment Quality adds a quality lens: a commit that introduced a bug is retrospectively counted as a poor investment — the engineering time spent on it was wasted because it ultimately required additional fix work. Fix commits (Fixes in the standard model) are reframed as productive, because fixing bugs is valuable work.

| 5915f9d | This commit **refactors** the `memset` selection logic within the **folly library** for **AArch64 architectures**. It moves the Zero-on-Virtual-Address (ZVA) size check from being performed at each `memset` call to a single check at **load time**. This **performance optimization** is achieved by integrating an inline assembly instruction directly into the C++ code, specifically affecting the `__folly_detail_memset_resolve` symbol in `folly/memset_select_aarch64.cpp`.

| bdfb33e | This commit introduces a **new, highly optimized `memset` implementation** for **AArch64 platforms** by leveraging **ARM's Scalable Vector Extension (SVE)**. A new assembly file, `folly/external/aor/memset-sve.S`, provides the SVE-specific logic, which is then integrated into **Folly's low-level memory utilities** via `folly/memset_select_aarch64.cpp` to dynamically select this version when SVE hardware is detected. This **performance optimization** significantly improves `memset` throughput, particularly for **small input sizes**, as demonstrated by benchmark results.

| 162a55b | This commit **optimizes performance** for the **`folly::F14Table`** container on **AArch64 architectures**. It **refactors** the internal `occupiedIter` method within `folly/container/detail/F14Table.h` to utilize `SparseMaskIter` instead of `DenseMaskIter`. This change leverages the improved simplicity and efficiency of `SparseMaskIter` after a previous update, resulting in approximately **10% faster execution** for `f14Node`'s `CopyCtor`, `Destructor`, and `Clear` operations. | Feb 24 | 1 | maint |
| b26baa2 | This commit introduces a **performance optimization** within the **`folly/container/detail/F14Mask.h`** component, specifically for the `SparseMaskIter::next()` method.

This allows the Aarch64 compiler to **eliminate a redundant `AND` instruction** from the generated assembly code. The removal of this pipelined instruction **reduces execution latency by 1 cycle**, thereby improving the **speed of successful finds** on Aarch64 architectures. | Feb 24 | 1 | maint |
| 87e9753 | This commit introduces a **performance optimization** for the **SparseMaskIter** within `folly/container/detail/F14Mask.h`, specifically targeting **AArch64** platforms. It addresses the lack of a direct CTZ (Count Trailing Zeros) instruction on armv9a by implementing an efficient sequence of `RBIT` (Reverse Bits) followed by `CLZ` (Count Leading Zeros). The change modifies the `SparseMaskIter`'s internal logic and adds a new helper function, `findLastSetNonZero`, to improve instruction scheduling and reduce speculative execution in the iteration loop. This **AArch64-specific improvement** is expected to benefit operations like `occupiedIter` by providing a more efficient way to find the next set bit. | Feb 24 | 1 | maint |
| e978c48 | This commit **enhances the performance** of the `bitReverse` function within the **`folly::lang::Bits` module** by leveraging **Clang's compiler builtins** for efficient bit reversal operations. The original implementation has been refactored into a `bitReverseFallback` function, ensuring continued functionality for environments without builtin support. This change is a **performance optimization** and **refactoring** that improves the speed of bit manipulation. New test cases were added to `folly/lang/test/BitsTest.cpp` to verify the correctness of the `bitReverseFallback` implementation. This provides a significant **performance boost** for bit reversal operations across the `folly` library. | Feb 24 | 2 | maint |
| 0d02286 | This commit **optimizes** the **Folly F14Table**'s tag matching logic, specifically within the `tagMatchIter` function in `folly/container/detail/F14Table.h`. It **refactors** the underlying **ARM SVE** instruction sequence by replacing a `cmeq` instruction with a `mov` instruction. This change aims to improve the performance of `find` operations, particularly when matches are not found in early iterations, by reducing speculative execution overhead.

| 4055edf | This commit provides a **bug fix** to resolve **OSS build breaks** encountered when compiling **`folly::ConcurrentHashMap`** on **AARCH64** without targeting the CRC feature set. It adjusts preprocessor conditions within `folly/concurrency/ConcurrentHashMap.h` and `folly/concurrency/detail/ConcurrentHashMap-detail.h` to ensure that ARM intrinsics and SIMD features are only enabled when `FOLLY_F14_CRC_INTRINSIC_AVAILABLE` is true for `AARCH64`. This prevents incorrect inclusion of CRC-dependent SIMD optimizations, thereby eliminating compilation failures and ensuring the robust build and correct functionality of `ConcurrentHashMap`'s optimized paths in diverse build environments. | Sep 4 | 4 | waste |
| e9d2b0e | This commit introduces **NEON intrinsics** to the **`folly::RWSpinLock`** implementation, specifically targeting **AARCH64 platforms**. This **performance enhancement** optimizes the internal lock and unlock operations, building upon existing SSE optimizations for other architectures. The change significantly **reduces synchronization overhead** for applications utilizing `RWSpinLock` on ARM-based systems, as demonstrated by improved benchmark results across various thread counts.

This **new capability** allows AARCH64 builds to utilize the vectorized hash map, which previously defaulted to the non-SIMD version. Consequently, applications on AARCH64 can now leverage `ConcurrentHashMapSIMD` for potential **performance improvements**, with updated test suites in `folly/concurrency/test/ConcurrentHashMapTest.cpp` and `folly/concurrency/test/ConcurrentHashMapStressTest.cpp` confirming this enablement. | Jul 2 | 4 | grow |
| 2bf0c97 | This commit introduces a significant **performance optimization** for **Folly's F14 containers** by switching their string hashing algorithm to `rapidhashNano`. Specifically, the `TransparentRangeHash` utility, used for heterogeneous lookups, now leverages this more efficient hash function, as seen in `folly/container/HeterogeneousAccess.h`.
