URI encoding without the temporary binaries, faster local integration tests

By RepoJournal · Filed · About Elixir & Phoenix · Composed from the cited sources · methodology

Elixir's URI encoder now writes encoded bytes straight into the output binary instead of allocating a throwaway binary per input byte, and Phoenix's local integration test workflow got the same treatment CI did.

Encode URIs with a single accumulator (#15979) elixir-lang/elixir

by Barna Kovacs

The encoder now writes encoded bytes directly to the output binary rather than building a temporary binary for every input byte, which cuts both allocation and peak memory for URI-heavy code paths. The author reports it is faster with no performance regressions on his machine.

Improve local integration test workflow phoenixframework/phoenix

by rhcarvalho

Cold local integration runs land around 3m30s (image download, build, fresh compilation) and about 2m10s on subsequent runs on the author's machine, following the earlier CI-side work that cut CI time and improved observability. The test summary pipeline was reworked to serve both local single-job and CI multi-job runs from one structure.

Improve local integration test workflow (#6873) phoenixframework/phoenix

by Rodolfo Carvalho

Database container healthchecks now probe over TCP with startup intervals, because MySQL and PostgreSQL bootstrap servers during first boot listen only on Unix domain sockets and made socket-based pings report healthy before the real server was up. If you copy these compose healthchecks for your own Phoenix integration setup, the TCP probe is the part worth taking.
