Luceneutil: Lucene benchmarking utilities

Benchmarking Lucene Duke -- thank you @mocobeta!

Setting up luceneutil

First, pick a root directory, under which luceneutil will be checked out, datasets exist, indices are built, Lucene source code is checked out, etc.. We'll refer to this directory as $LUCENE_BENCH_HOME here.

# 1. checkout luceneutil:
# Choose a suitable directory, e.g. ~/Projects/lucene/benchmarks.
mkdir $LUCENE_BENCH_HOME && cd $LUCENE_BENCH_HOME
git clone https://github.com/mikemccand/luceneutil.git util

# 2. Run the setup script
cd util
python src/python/setup.py -download

# you can run with -h option for help
python src/python/setup.py -h

In the second step, the setup procedure creates all necessary directories in the clones parent directory and downloads datasets to run the benchmarks on. By default, it downloads a 6 GB compressed Wikipedia line doc file, and a 13 GB vectors file from Apache mirrors. If you don't want to download the large data files, just remove the -download flag from the commandline.

After the download has completed, extract the lzma file in $LUCENE_BENCH_HOME/data. You can do this using the xz tool, or the lmza tool, or any other tool of your choice. For example:

cd $LUCENE_BENCH_HOME/data
# using xz
xz -d enwiki-20120502-lines-1k-fixed-utf8-with-random-label.txt.lzma
# using lmza
lzma -d enwiki-20120502-lines-1k-fixed-utf8-with-random-label.txt.lzma

(Optional, for development) set up IntelliJ

Should be able to open by IntelliJ automatically. The gradle will write a local configuration file gradle.properties in which you can configure your local lucene repository so that intellij will use it as external library and code suggestion will work. Also because the compilation is looking for jar so you have to build your lucene repo (run ./gradlew jar) manually if you haven't done so. Note the gradle build will NOT be able to compile the whole project because some codes do have errors so we still need to filter which files to compile (see competitions.py). So you still need to follow the rest procedure.

Preparing the benchmark candidates

The benchmark compares a baseline version of Lucene to a patched one. Therefore we need two checkouts of Lucene, for example:

  • $LUCENE_BENCH_HOME/lucene_baseline: contains a complete svn checkout of Lucene, this is the baseline for comparison
  • $LUCENE_BENCH_HOME/lucene_candidate: contains a complete svn checkout of Lucene with some change applied that should be benchmarked against the baseline.

A trunk version of Lucene can be checked out with

cd $LUCENE_BENCH_HOME
git clone https://github.com/apache/lucene.git lucene_baseline

Adjust the command accordingly for lucene_candidate.

Running a first benchmark

setup.py has created two files: localconstants.py, and localrun.py in $LUCENE_BENCH_HOME/util/src/python/.

The file localconstants.py should be used to override any existing constants in constants.py, for example if you want to change the Java commandline used to run benchmarks. To run an initial benchmark you don't need to modify this file.

Now you can start editing localrun.py to define your comparison, at the bottom near its __main__:

This file is a copy of example.py and should be used to define your comparisons. You don't have to build 2 separate indexes; you can make one and pass it to the two different competitors if you are only benching some code difference but not a file format change.

To run the benchmark you first test like this:

cd $LUCENE_BENCH_HOME/util
python src/python/localrun.py -source wikimedium10k

Then once you confirm that everything works, use the wikimediumall corpus for all subsequent runs. Using this much much larger corpus (33+ million docs) is necessary to draw conclusions from your benchmark results.

python src/python/localrun.py -source wikimediumall

If you get ClassNotFound exceptions, your Lucene checkouts may need to be rebuilt. Run ./gradlew jar in both lucene_candidate/ and lucene_baseline/ dirs.

If your benchmark fails with "facetDim Date was not indexed" or similar, try adding

facets = (('taxonomy:Date', 'Date'),('sortedset:Month', 'Month'),('sortedset:DayOfYear', 'DayOfYear'))
index = comp.newIndex('lucene_baseline', sourceData, facets=facets, indexSort='dayOfYearNumericDV:long')

in localrun.py, and use that index in your benchmarks.

Additional Run Options

You can also make the benchmark use baseline or candidate repository that exists outside of the directory structure above. Simply use -b <Baseline repo path> or -c <Candidate repo path> as shown below:

python src/python/localrun.py -source wikimediumall -b /Users/vigyas/repos/lucene -c /Users/vigyas/forks/lucene

While benchmarking an indexing side change, you might want to recreate the index for your candidate run. Use the -r / --reindex arg as follows:

python src/python/localrun.py -source wikimediumall -r

For details on all the available options, use the -h or --help parameter.

Running the geo benchmark

This one is different and self-contained. Read the command-line examples at the top of src/main/perf/IndexAndSearchOpenStreetMaps.java

Creating line doc file from an arbitrary Wikimedia dump data

You can create your own line doc file from an arbitrary Wikimedia dump by following steps. Note that the src/python/createJapaneseWikipediaLineDocsFile.py helper tool does these steps:

  1. Download Wikimedia dump (XML) from https://dumps.wikimedia.org/ and decompress it on $YOUR_DATA_DIR.

    e.g.:

    bunzip2 -d /data/jawiki/jawiki-20200620-pages-articles-multistream.xml.bz2

  2. Run src/python/wikiXMLToText.py to extract attributes such as title and timestamp from the XML dump.

    e.g.:

    python src/python/wikiXMLToText.py /data/jawiki/jawiki-20200620-pages-articles-multistream.xml /data/jawiki/jawiki-20200620-text.txt

  3. Run src/python/WikipediaExtractor.py to extract cleaned body text from the XML dump. This may take long time!

    e.g.:

    cat /data/jawiki/jawiki-20200620-pages-articles-multistream.xml | python -u src/python/WikipediaExtractor.py -b102400m -o /data/jawiki

4a. Combine the outputs of 2. and 3. by running src/python/combineWikiFiles.py.

e.g.:
```
python src/python/combineWikiFiles.py /data/jawiki/jawiki-20200620-text.txt /data/jawiki/AA/wiki_00 /data/jawiki/jawiki-20200620-lines.txt
```

4b. (Optional) If you want to strip all but the last three columns from the combined file, pass the -only-three-columns to combineWikiFiles.py:

e.g.:
```
python src/python/combineWikiFiles.py /data/jawiki/jawiki-20200620-text.txt /data/jawiki/AA/wiki_00 /data/jawiki/jawiki-20200620-lines.txt -only-three-columns
```

Alternatively, use the Unix `cut` tool:

```
# extract titie, timestamp and body text
cat /data/jawiki/jawiki-20200620-lines.txt | cut -f1,2,3
```

Running the KNN benchmark

Some knn-related tasks are included in the main benchmarks. If you specifically want to test KNN/HNSW there is a script dedicated to that in src/python/knnPerfTest.py which has instructions on how to run it in its comments.

Testing with higher dimension vectors

By default we use 100/300 dimension vectors, to use higher dimension vectors (more than 384, check highDimDataSets in gradle/knn.gradle), you need to:

  1. run ./gradlew vectors-mpnet or ./gradlew vectors-minilm depend on your needs (this step will run infer_token_vectors.py for you, and then generate task and document vectors)
  2. run src/python/localrun.py (see instructions inside src/python/vector-test.py) or src/python/knnPerTest.py (see instructions inside the file) of your choice,

To test vector search with Cohere/wikipedia-22-12-en-embeddings dataset, you need to do:

  1. run python src/python/infer_token_vectors_cohere.py ../data/cohere-wikipedia-768.vec 10000000 ../data/cohere-wikipedia-queries-768.vec 10000 to generate vectors in the format that luceneutil vector search can understand. Instead of 10000000 increase the number of documents to 100000000 if you want to run vector search on 10M documents.
  2. In src/python/knnPerTest.py uncomment lines that define doc and query vectors for cohere dataset.
  3. run src/python/knnPerTest.py
