perf(dashboard): reduce number of rerenders of Charts by kgabryje · Pull Request #16444 · apache/superset

kgabryje · 2021-08-25T10:40:03Z

SUMMARY

We generate formData, which is passed through props to Chart, with a function getFormDataWithExtraFilters. The idea is to generate formData, save it in a cache object, and on each subsequent render use the cached version. However, due to incorrect equality checks, we never used the cached version and created a new formData object each time. That resulted not only in recalculating the same logic many times, but also triggered Chart's rerender, as formData object's reference was changing.
Moreover, in Chart component's shouldComponentUpdate function we triggered rerender each time chart's visibility changed - in other words, we rerendered all charts every time we changed a tab.
This PR fixes both of those behaviours.

LGTM and appears to work well. Two minor non-blocking comments

-    (cachedFiltersByChart[sliceId] || {}) === filters &&
-    (colorScheme == null ||
-      cachedFormdataByChart[sliceId].color_scheme === colorScheme) &&
-    cachedFormdataByChart[sliceId].color_namespace === colorNamespace &&
-    isEqual(cachedFormdataByChart[sliceId].label_colors, labelColors) &&
+    cachedFiltersByChart[sliceId] === filters &&
+    (colorScheme === null ||
+      cachedFormdataByChart[sliceId]?.color_scheme === colorScheme) &&
+    cachedFormdataByChart[sliceId]?.color_namespace === colorNamespace &&
+    isEqual(cachedFormdataByChart[sliceId]?.label_colors, labelColors) &&
    !!cachedFormdataByChart[sliceId] &&
-    dataMask === undefined
+    areObjectsEqual(cachedFormdataByChart[sliceId]?.dataMask, dataMask, {
+      ignoreUndefined: true,
+    })


While we're modifying code here and for the sake of DRY, would it make sense to break out

const cachedFormdata = cachedFormdataByChart[sliceId];

Agreed. Btw, Is it designed to not use the cache when the colorScheme is undefined? Because previous logic that colorScheme == null will return true if it is undefined and go to next condition. In addition, the above line of code seems that the colorScheme will not be null value whatever.

colorScheme: metadata?.color_scheme ?? undefined,

Great point Stephen! I think we can safely remove colorScheme === null and ?? undefined

Issues from both comments fixed

+  static whyDidYouRender = true;
+


do we want to start introducing these in the codebase now? I'm fine either way

i have no idea what is this. Since this is open source code base, everything should either self-explained or well documented for the whole community.

I left that in by accident, thanks for pointing out!
@graceguo-supercat In order to detect unnecessary rerenders, I use a library whyDidYouRender (https://github.com/welldone-software/why-did-you-render). Adding a static property whyDidYouRender = true to a component tells the library to watch that component and report rerenders in the form of console logs. Of course, I meant to cleanup those props, but clearly I missed that one 🙂

 const SHOULD_UPDATE_ON_PROP_CHANGES = Object.keys(propTypes).filter(
-  prop => prop !== 'width' && prop !== 'height',
+  prop =>
+    prop !== 'width' && prop !== 'height' && prop !== 'isComponentVisible',


Thanks for the work! this perf improvement work is great!
Before: chart component not update when width or height changed,
after: chart component not update width or height or visibility change.
But when chart component hide and show when tab changes, why chart component not need update?

In shouldComponentUpdate we have a if(isComponentVisible) statement followed by additional checks if component should render. The point is that we run those only when component is visible.
In other words, isComponentVisible should be used to decide if we should run checks to determine if component should be rerendered. However, the change of isComponentVisible alone shouldn't trigger a rerender, because it's already rendered. You can check out that behaviour by switching tabs back and forth. On the first change of tab, isComponentVisible changes, but so do other props, so the chart is rerendered. But if you go back to previous tab, only isComponentVisible changes, so there's no point in rerendering a chart because there are no changes that would affect that chart.

Sorry for rambling, I hope that it makes sense 😆
