Eliminates race conditions through architectural constraints. -3. **Multi-Stage Validation Pipeline**: - - Stage 1: NoRebalanceRange containment check (fast-path rejection) - - Stage 2: Pending rebalance coverage check (anti-thrashing) - - Stage 3: Desired == Current check (no-op prevention) +2. **Decision-Driven Execution**: Rebalance necessity determined by analytical validation before execution. Enables work avoidance and prevents thrashing. - Rebalance executes ONLY if ALL stages confirm necessity. - See [Scenario Model - Decision Path](docs/scenario-model.md#ii-rebalance-decision-path--decision-scenarios). +3. **Multi-Stage Validation Pipeline**: Four validation stages must all pass before rebalance executes (NoRebalanceRange check, pending coverage check, desired==current check). See [Scenario Model - Decision Path](docs/scenario-model.md#ii-rebalance-decision-path--decision-scenarios). -4. **Smart Eventual Consistency**: Cache converges to optimal configuration asynchronously while avoiding unnecessary - work through validation. System prioritizes decision correctness and work avoidance over aggressive rebalance - responsiveness. - See [Concurrency Model - Smart Eventual Consistency](docs/concurrency-model.md#smart-eventual-consistency-model). +4. **Smart Eventual Consistency**: Cache converges to optimal state asynchronously while avoiding unnecessary operations through validation. -5. **Intent Semantics**: Intents represent observed access patterns (signals), not mandatory work (commands). Publishing - an intent does not guarantee rebalance execution - validation determines necessity. - See [Invariants C.24](docs/invariants.md). +5. **Intent Semantics**: Intents are signals (observed access patterns), not commands (mandatory work). Validation determines execution necessity. -6. **Cache Contiguity Rule**: Cache data must always remain contiguous (no gaps allowed). Non-intersecting requests - fully replace the cache rather than creating partial/gapped states. See [Invariants A.9a](docs/invariants.md). +6. **Cache Contiguity**: Cache data remains contiguous without gaps. Non-intersecting requests replace cache entirely. -7. **User Path Priority**: User requests always served immediately. When validation confirms new rebalance is necessary, - pending rebalance is cancelled and rescheduled. Cancellation is mechanical coordination (prevents concurrent - executions), not a decision mechanism. See [Cache State Machine](docs/cache-state-machine.md). +7. **User Path Priority**: User requests always served immediately. Background rebalancing never blocks user operations. -8. **Lock-Free Concurrency**: Intent management uses `Volatile.Read/Write` and `Interlocked.Exchange` for atomic - operations - no locks, no race conditions, guaranteed progress. Execution serialization via `SemaphoreSlim` ensures - single-writer semantics. Thread-safety achieved through architectural constraints and atomic operations. - See [Concurrency Model - Lock-Free Implementation](docs/concurrency-model.md#lock-free-implementation). +8. **Lock-Free Concurrency**: Intent management uses atomic operations (`Volatile`, `Interlocked`). Execution serialization ensures single-writer semantics. --- diff --git a/SlidingWindowCache.sln b/SlidingWindowCache.sln index 4aa43bb..46a2850 100644 --- a/SlidingWindowCache.sln +++ b/SlidingWindowCache.sln @@ -15,9 +15,11 @@ Project("{2150E333-8FDC-42A3-9474-1A3956D46DE8}") = "docs", "docs", "{B0276F89-7 docs\actors-and-responsibilities.md = docs\actors-and-responsibilities.md docs\cache-state-machine.md = docs\cache-state-machine.md docs\actors-to-components-mapping.md = docs\actors-to-components-mapping.md - docs\concurrency-model.md = docs\concurrency-model.md docs\component-map.md = docs\component-map.md docs\storage-strategies.md = docs\storage-strategies.md + docs\diagnostics.md = docs\diagnostics.md + docs\architecture-model.md = docs\architecture-model.md + docs\glossary.md = docs\glossary.md EndProjectSection EndProject Project("{2150E333-8FDC-42A3-9474-1A3956D46DE8}") = "src", "src", "{2126ACFB-75E0-4E60-A84C-463EBA8A8799}" diff --git a/benchmarks/SlidingWindowCache.Benchmarks/Benchmarks/ExecutionStrategyBenchmarks.cs b/benchmarks/SlidingWindowCache.Benchmarks/Benchmarks/ExecutionStrategyBenchmarks.cs new file mode 100644 index 0000000..27ad041 --- /dev/null +++ b/benchmarks/SlidingWindowCache.Benchmarks/Benchmarks/ExecutionStrategyBenchmarks.cs @@ -0,0 +1,424 @@ +using BenchmarkDotNet.Attributes; +using Intervals.NET; +using Intervals.NET.Domain.Default.Numeric; +using Intervals.NET.Domain.Extensions.Fixed; +using SlidingWindowCache.Benchmarks.Infrastructure; +using SlidingWindowCache.Public; +using SlidingWindowCache.Public.Configuration; + +namespace SlidingWindowCache.Benchmarks.Benchmarks; + +/// +/// Execution Strategy Benchmarks +/// Comparative benchmarking suite focused on unbounded vs bounded execution queue performance +/// under rapid user request bursts with cache-hit pattern. +/// +/// BENCHMARK PHILOSOPHY: +/// This suite compares execution queue configurations across three orthogonal dimensions: +/// βœ” Execution Queue Capacity (Unbounded/Bounded) - core comparison axis via separate benchmark methods +/// βœ” Data Source Latency (0ms/50ms/100ms) - realistic I/O simulation for rebalance operations +/// βœ” Burst Size (10/100/1000) - sequential request load creating intent accumulation +/// +/// PUBLIC API TERMS: +/// This benchmark uses public-facing terminology (NoCapacity/WithCapacity) to reflect +/// the WindowCacheOptions.RebalanceQueueCapacity configuration: +/// - NoCapacity = null (unbounded execution queue) - BASELINE +/// - WithCapacity = 10 (bounded execution queue with capacity of 10) +/// +/// IMPLEMENTATION DETAILS: +/// Internally, these configurations map to execution controller implementations: +/// - Unbounded (NoCapacity) β†’ Task-based execution with unbounded task chaining +/// - Bounded (WithCapacity) β†’ Channel-based execution with bounded queue and backpressure +/// +/// BASELINE RATIO CALCULATIONS: +/// BenchmarkDotNet automatically calculates performance ratios using NoCapacity as the baseline: +/// - Ratio Column: Shows WithCapacity performance relative to NoCapacity (baseline = 1.00) +/// - Ratio < 1.0 = WithCapacity is faster (e.g., 0.012 = 83Γ— faster) +/// - Ratio > 1.0 = WithCapacity is slower (e.g., 1.44 = 44% slower) +/// - Ratios are calculated per (DataSourceLatencyMs, BurstSize) parameter combination +/// +/// CRITICAL METHODOLOGY - Cache Hit Pattern for Intent Accumulation: +/// The benchmark uses a cold start prepopulation strategy to ensure ALL burst requests are cache hits: +/// 1.

Cancellation is merely the coordination tool that prevents concurrent executions (single-writer enforcement). This separation enables smart eventual consistency: the system converges to optimal configuration while avoiding unnecessary work (thrashing prevention, redundant I/O elimination, oscillation avoidance). - -### Smart Eventual Consistency Model - -Cache state converges to optimal configuration asynchronously through **decision-driven rebalance execution**: - -1. **User Path** returns correct data immediately (from cache or IDataSource) -2. **User Path** publishes intent with delivered data (**synchronously in user thread**) -3. **Rebalance Decision Engine** validates rebalance necessity through multi-stage analytical pipeline (**synchronously in user thread - CPU-only, side-effect free, lightweight**) -4. **Scheduling** creates PendingRebalance and schedules background Task (**synchronously in user thread**) -5. **Work avoidance**: Rebalance skipped if validation determines it's unnecessary (NoRebalanceRange containment, Desired==Current, pending rebalance coverage) - **all happens synchronously before background scheduling** -6. **Background execution** (only part that runs in ThreadPool): debounce delay + actual rebalance I/O operations -7. **Debounce delay** controls convergence timing and prevents thrashing (background) -8. **User correctness** never depends on cache state being up-to-date - -**Key insight:** User always receives correct data, regardless of whether cache has converged yet. - -**"Smart" characteristic:** The system avoids unnecessary work through multi-stage validation rather than blindly executing every intent.

Sliding Window Requires a Unified Access Pattern - -The cache continuously adapts its window based on observed access. - -If multiple consumers request unrelated ranges: -- there is no single `DesiredCacheRange` -- the window oscillates or becomes unstable -- cache efficiency collapses - -This is not a concurrency bug β€” it is a **model mismatch**. - ---- - -### 2. Rebalance Logic Depends on a Single Timeline - -Rebalance behavior relies on: -- ordered intents representing sequential access observations -- multi-stage validation determining rebalance necessity -- cancellation of pending work when validation confirms new rebalance needed -- "latest validated decision wins" semantics -- eventual stabilization through work avoidance (NoRebalanceRange, Desired==Current checks) - -These guarantees require a **single temporal sequence of access events**. - -Multiple consumers introduce conflicting timelines that cannot be meaningfully -merged without fundamentally changing the model. - ---- - -### 3. Architecture Reflects the Ideology - -The system architecture: -- enforces single-thread access -- isolates rebalance logic from user code -- assumes coherent access intent - -These choices do not define the constraint β€” -they **exist to preserve it**. - ---- - -## How to Use This Library in Multi-User Environments - -### βœ… Correct Approach - -If your system has multiple users or concurrent consumers: - -> **Create one cache instance per user (or per logical consumer).** - -Each cache instance: -- operates independently -- maintains its own sliding window -- runs its own rebalance lifecycle - -This preserves correctness, performance, and predictability. - ---- - -### ❌ Incorrect Approach - -Do **not**: -- share a cache instance across threads -- multiplex multiple users through a single cache -- attempt to synchronize access externally - -External synchronization does not solve the underlying model conflict and will -result in inefficient or unstable behavior. - ---- - -## Deterministic Background Job Synchronization - -### Testing Infrastructure API - -The cache provides a `WaitForIdleAsync()` method for deterministic synchronization with -background rebalance operations. This is **infrastructure/testing API**, not part of normal -usage patterns or domain semantics. - -### Implementation - -**Mechanism**: Task lifecycle tracking via observe-and-stabilize pattern - -- `RebalanceScheduler` maintains `_idleTask` field tracking latest background Task -- `WaitForIdleAsync()` implements: - ``` - 1. Volatile.Read(_idleTask) β†’ observe current Task - 2. await observedTask β†’ wait for completion - 3. Re-check if _idleTask changed β†’ detect new rebalance - 4. Loop until Task reference stabilizes - ``` -- Guarantees: No rebalance execution running when method returns -- Safety: Handles concurrent intent cancellation and rescheduling correctly -- Use cases: Testing, graceful shutdown, health checks, integration scenarios - -### Use Cases - -- **Test stabilization**: Ensure cache has converged before assertions -- **Integration testing**: Synchronize with background work completion -- **Diagnostic scenarios**: Verify rebalance execution finished - -### Architectural Preservation - -This synchronization mechanism does **not** alter actor responsibilities: - -- UserRequestHandler remains sole intent publisher -- IntentController remains lifecycle authority -- RebalanceScheduler remains execution authority -- WindowCache remains pure facade - -Method exists only to expose idle synchronization through public API for testing purposes. - -### Lock-Free Implementation - -**IntentController** uses lock-free synchronization: -- **No locks, no `lock` statements, no mutexes** -- Uses `Volatile.Read` and `Volatile.Write` for safe field access across threads -- `_pendingRebalance` field accessed with memory barriers via `Volatile` operations -- Encapsulates `CancellationTokenSource` within `PendingRebalance` domain object (DDD-style) -- Thread-safe without blocking - guaranteed progress -- Zero contention overhead - -**Safe Visibility Pattern:** -```csharp -// Read with memory barrier for safe observation -var pending = Volatile.Read(ref _pendingRebalance); - -// Write with memory barrier for safe publication -Volatile.Write(ref _pendingRebalance, newPending); -``` - -**Domain-Driven Cancellation:** -- `PendingRebalance` domain object owns `CancellationTokenSource` lifecycle -- Cancellation invoked through domain object's `Cancel()` method -- Eliminates direct CTS management in IntentController (better encapsulation) - -**Testing Coverage:** -- Lock-free behavior validated by `ConcurrencyStabilityTests` -- Tested under concurrent load (100+ simultaneous operations) -- No deadlocks, no race conditions, no data corruption observed - -This lightweight synchronization approach using `Volatile` operations ensures thread-safety -without the overhead and complexity of traditional locking mechanisms, while the DDD-style -domain object pattern provides clean encapsulation of cancellation infrastructure. - -### Relation to Concurrency Model - -The observe-and-stabilize pattern: -- Does not introduce locking or mutual exclusion -- Leverages existing single-writer architecture -- Provides visibility through volatile reads -- Maintains eventual consistency model - -This is synchronization **with** background work, not synchronization **of** concurrent writers. - ---- - -## What Is Supported - -- Single logical consumer per cache instance (coherent access pattern) -- Single-writer architecture (Rebalance Execution only) -- Read-only User Path (safe for repeated calls from same consumer) -- Background asynchronous rebalance -- Cancellation and debouncing of rebalance execution -- High-frequency access from one logical consumer -- Eventual consistency model (cache converges asynchronously) -- Intent-based data delivery (delivered data in intent avoids duplicate fetches) - ---- - -## What Is Explicitly Not Supported - -- Multiple concurrent consumers per cache instance -- Thread-safe shared access -- Cross-user sliding window arbitration - ---- - -## Design Philosophy - -This library prioritizes: -- conceptual clarity -- predictable behavior -- cache efficiency -- correctness of temporal and spatial logic - -Instead of providing superficial thread safety, -it enforces a model that remains stable, explainable, and performant. diff --git a/docs/diagnostics.md b/docs/diagnostics.md index 0a04b3b..a313fb1 100644 --- a/docs/diagnostics.md +++ b/docs/diagnostics.md @@ -40,7 +40,7 @@ The Sliding Window Cache provides optional diagnostics instrumentation for monit ### Interface: `ICacheDiagnostics` -The diagnostics system is built around the `ICacheDiagnostics` interface, which defines 15 event recording methods corresponding to key cache behavioral events: +The diagnostics system is built around the `ICacheDiagnostics` interface, which defines 18 event recording methods corresponding to key cache behavioral events: ```csharp public interface ICacheDiagnostics @@ -66,9 +66,14 @@ public interface ICacheDiagnostics void RebalanceExecutionCompleted();

Runs on background threads (IntentController, RebalanceExecutionController, RebalanceExecutor).
