Hmm. Seems we got a timeout on one of our queries.

Do: check

Add .github/workflows/perf-benchmark.yml, an opt-in GHA workflow that runs the ASV-based performance regression harness hosted at InsightSoftwareConsortium/ITKPerformanceBenchmarking on pull requests labelled 'performance' (or via manual dispatch). The workflow: - Computes BASE = merge-base(PR, origin/master) and builds ITK at both BASE and PR HEAD with Module_PerformanceBenchmarking=ON, BUILD_EXAMPLES=ON, BUILD_TESTING=ON (required for the ExternalData fixture fetch), and BUILD_SHARED_LIBS=OFF. The two builds share a ccache so the second build is mostly incremental. - Builds only the benchmark executables plus ITKBenchmarksData, avoiding a full ITK test suite build. - Checks out InsightSoftwareConsortium/ITKPerformanceBenchmarking at the PERF_HARNESS_REF env var (defaults to the asv-native- harness branch while that work is landing upstream; flip to a merged SHA afterwards). - Creates the 'itk-repo' symlink required by the harness's asv.conf.json, installs the itk_perf_shim Python package, and runs 'asv run --set-commit-hash <SHA>' against each build so result labels track ITK history. - 'asv compare --factor=1.10 --split' produces a markdown diff; posted as a sticky PR comment and uploaded as an artifact along with the 'asv publish' HTML tree. Opt-in via the 'performance' label keeps the two-ITK-build cost off the default PR path. No changes to any existing workflow or Azure Pipelines file. Replaces the intent of the long-stalled thewtex/ITK:ci-performance- builds branch (InsightSoftwareConsortium#612), which proposed an Azure Pipelines job targetting the retired macos-11 image and the legacy evaluate-itk-performance.py driver.

@thewtex — the rebase + origin/master → origin/main workaround in .github/workflows/perf-benchmark.yml (commit c4e39a64) got the asv base vs head check green (11m59s). All Azure C++ pipelines pass on the fresh tip c4e39a64; remaining pending are the usual long-runners (Python-wrapping + Pixi-Cxx).

To remove the in-workflow patch permanently:

Merge InsightSoftwareConsortium/ITKPerformanceBenchmarking#113 (2-line fix to asv.conf.json + README-asv.md).
Bump Modules/Remote/PerformanceBenchmarking.remote.cmake GIT_TAG here to that merge SHA.
Delete the python -c sed block from the Stage ASV harness step.

hjmjohnson · 2026-04-23T02:29:05Z

@thewtex — ITKPerformanceBenchmarking#113 merged (b24324f922). Force-pushed tip 2359970c24 that (1) bumps Modules/Remote/PerformanceBenchmarking.remote.cmake GIT_TAG to the merge SHA and (2) drops the python -c sed-patch from the Stage ASV harness step — the workflow is now back to your original minimal form.

Net diff vs the pre-rebase tip cfa9a3ff0d:

Modules/Remote/PerformanceBenchmarking.remote.cmake +1/-1 (pin bump)
rebased onto current upstream/main (was 11 commits behind, now 0)

Fresh CI kicked off; should settle similarly to the previous run (asv was 11m59s last round).

Greptile Summary

This PR adds a new GitHub Actions workflow (perf-benchmark.yml) that runs ASV (airspeed velocity) benchmarks comparing the PR HEAD against its merge-base, and bumps the PerformanceBenchmarking remote module pin to a commit that introduces the required ASV harness.

P1: The workflow_dispatch trigger causes the "Resolve merge-base and HEAD SHAs" step to fail — github.base_ref is empty outside of pull_request events, making git fetch origin "" fatal.
P2: CMakeVersion: "4.0.1" and ExternalDataVersion: 5.4.5 are declared in env but never referenced; if CMake 4.x is genuinely required, an installation step is missing.

Confidence Score: 4/5

Safe to merge after fixing the workflow_dispatch / github.base_ref breakage.

One P1 defect: manually triggered runs fail immediately due to an empty github.base_ref. The cmake pin bump is clean and the overall workflow design is sound.

.github/workflows/perf-benchmark.yml — the workflow_dispatch + github.base_ref interaction and the unused env vars.

Important Files Changed

Filename	Overview
.github/workflows/perf-benchmark.yml	New CI workflow running ASV benchmarks on base vs HEAD; broken for `workflow_dispatch` due to empty `github.base_ref`, and has unused `CMakeVersion`/`ExternalDataVersion` env vars.
Modules/Remote/PerformanceBenchmarking.remote.cmake	Single-line GIT_TAG bump to pin the commit that introduced the ASV harness (`asv.conf.json`) required by the new workflow.

@thewtex. I have been addressing old issues and cleaning up the backlog, so I went straight to the oldest PR.

I'd like to take this to a final resting state. I'm ok if we just close it, or include it, or make some changes to get it over a finish line (whatever goal-post changing finish line is currently most beneficial).

This was a nice test bed for resolving some other issues, and I think it is now ready for final remarks.

Thanks for pushing this @hjmjohnson.

Adds .github/workflows/perf-benchmark.yml — a GitHub Actions workflow that builds ITK twice (merge-base and PR HEAD) with the PerformanceBenchmarking remote module enabled, then drives the ASV harness from InsightSoftwareConsortium/ITKPerformanceBenchmarking#111 against each build to produce an asv compare report. Bumps the PerformanceBenchmarking remote module pin from 7950c1d76095033edbf7601a925cdacc2fe717f9 to 41bf1b9cfbaa1b146e1b3e5d3ad3571b2203ce1e (master HEAD, post-InsightSoftwareConsortium#111). The new pin carries: * asv.conf.json, benchmarks/{core,filtering,segmentation}.py, python/itk_perf_shim/ (the ASV harness). * Hardened examples/Core/itkCopyIterationBenchmark.cxx that no longer crashes on VectorImage under ITK >= 1d87efa (the VLV null-data regression; see InsightSoftwareConsortium#6087 for the parallel ITK-side defensive null-guard). Supersedes the 2019 Azure Pipelines macos-11 approach; macos-11 is retired and the older evaluate-itk-performance.py driver has been replaced by the ASV-native harness. For the very first PR (this one) the merge-base lacks the new pin, so its benchmark run is best-effort and the asv compare step is wrapped with continue-on-error. The workflow becomes fully useful for regression detection after this PR lands.

Advance the GIT_TAG in Modules/Remote/PerformanceBenchmarking.remote.cmake to 63fec3013cccfe7e8b1b88a1d2d889f7e64e4469, the current tip of InsightSoftwareConsortium/ITKPerformanceBenchmarking master, which includes the COMP: Drop unused InputPixelType typedefs cleanup that silences the -Wunused-local-typedef warnings the perf-benchmark CI job emitted on the prior pin.
