editor: Speed up multi cursor editing (#58510)
Early draft for #32051 (multi-cursor editing is very slow, and basically hangs at high cursor counts). Opening it early like @Anthony-Eid suggested so we can agree on direction before I go further. ## Root cause Typing with a cursor on every line is mostly O(N)-per-keystroke work spread across a few places. I profiled it with `sample` and per-phase timers around `handle_input`. At 1000 cursors (~24ms before this PR): the post-edit display-map sync is ~11.8ms, the CRDT edit (`apply_local_edit`) ~3.7ms, resolving all N selections plus the per-cursor input loop ~3.5ms, the post-edit selection round-trip ~2.6ms, and `change_selections` plus transact machinery ~2.4ms. The display sync re-runs per-edit `SumTree` work through every layer even when nothing transforms (the plain-text case), and selections get re-resolved through the full display round-trip several times per keystroke. ## What this does - Display fast paths: `InlayMap::sync` (no inlays) and `WrapMap::interpolate` (no soft-wrap) skip the O(edits) transform-tree rebuild and return the passthrough snapshot, gated so a pending inlay splice or existing wraps still take the slow path. - Selection fast path: when nothing collapses buffer content (`!has_folds() && !has_replacement_blocks()`), resolve `Anchor` to `Point` to `Offset` batched and skip the per-selection display round-trip (the `todo(lw)`). - Render and autoscroll resolve only the first/last/newest selections instead of all N per frame. - A parameterized `Multi-cursor input/cursors/{1000,10000,100000}` benchmark. ## Results - Typing (`handle_input`): ~2.1x faster (24ms to 11.7ms at 1k). - Type plus two word-deletes (criterion): 29% faster (89.9 to 63.8ms) at 1k, 37% (959 to 606ms) at 10k. - Post-edit display sync alone: 11.8 to 3.8ms at 1k, 133 to 45ms at 10k. All `editor` (759), `display_map` (67), `multi_buffer` (58), and `text` (36) tests pass, and `./script/clippy` is clean. ## Direction This is ~2x, and I can get the current architecture to roughly 3.5-4.5x with a few more safe changes (hoisting the per-cursor language/editability checks, cheaper snapshot clones). Genuine VS Code numbers (~1-2us/cursor) aren't reachable while the buffer is a CRDT rope of fragments with anchor selections and a 5-layer transform stack. That would need a plain-offset cursor model and/or decoupling display layout from the edit path, which is a bigger effort I'd want to design with you. One thing I'd need your call on: `set_active_selections` sends an `UpdateSelections` collab op every keystroke (building N anchors); can that be debounced to transaction end, or do presence/follow-mode features rely on per-keystroke cursor broadcast?

Bench app context phase 2 (#58202)
This PR builds out GPUI's benchmark harness so render benchmarks measure
realistic frame costs using GPUI-owned, runtime-gated instrumentation.
It adds measurements for frame draw time, dirty-to-draw latency,
invalidation coalescing, and frame-budget overruns, and runs benchmark
workloads with production-like concurrency.
## How it works
**Frame timings flow through the GPUI profiler.** `Window::draw` emits a
`FrameTiming { window_id, dirty_at, invalidations, draw_start, draw_end
}` event into a global ring buffer in `gpui::profiler`, mirroring the
existing task-timing channel. Collection is runtime-gated by
`profiler::set_frame_trace_enabled` (one relaxed atomic load when
disabled — no `Instant::now` calls in production). `BenchReport` is a
pure listener: it drains events through a cursor-based
`FrameTimingCollector` and builds histograms in the bench layer.
`Window` carries no bench-only cfg fields, and the same event channel
can later feed the miniprofiler UI or an in-app frame-time HUD.
**`BenchDispatcher`** is a multithreaded `PlatformDispatcher` for
benchmarks: background tasks run on a worker pool (same priority queue
as `LinuxDispatcher`, with task-profiler hooks), timers fire in real
time on a dedicated thread, and foreground tasks queue until the bench
thread drains them with a blocking `run_until_idle()`. Unlike
`TestDispatcher`, work executes in parallel in real time, so wall-clock
measurements reflect production concurrency. In-flight accounting is
panic-safe via drop guards.
**`gpui::bench_platform()`** returns a per-process `TestPlatform` backed
by the `BenchDispatcher`, cached in a thread-local so worker threads
persist across Criterion calibration passes. This replaces the earlier
approach of constructing a real platform per invocation, which had
process-global singleton issues, never ran foreground tasks (no run loop
pumped the main queue), and couldn't open windows on headless CI.
**Text shaping** uses `NoopTextSystem`: deterministic across
machines/font installations and CI-portable. Measured cost of this
trade: ~10% of editor draw time vs `MacTextSystem` (Noop still emits one
glyph per character at fixed advances, so downstream layout/paint
structure is preserved).
**GPU coverage (macOS only for now).** `PlatformHeadlessRenderer` gained
`render_scene`, which encodes and submits the scene to Metal against a
cached offscreen target without blocking on completion or reading pixels
back — matching production `present()` CPU cost (`render_scene_to_image`
would overstate it: it waits for the GPU and copies pixels back).
`TestWindow::draw` forwards scenes to the renderer, the real
`MetalAtlas` means glyph/SVG rasterization happens during paint, and
`bench_renderer` presents after each measured update. Platforms without
a headless renderer degrade to discarding the scene.
## Example
```rust
#[gpui::bench]
fn editor_render(cx: &mut BenchAppContext) {
init_context(cx);
let buffer = cx.update(|cx| { /* build a MultiBuffer */ });
let mut window = cx.add_empty_window();
let editor = window.update(|window, cx| {
let editor = window.replace_root(cx, |window, cx| {
let mut editor = Editor::new(EditorMode::full(), buffer, None, window, cx);
editor.set_style(editor::EditorStyle::default(), window, cx);
editor
});
window.focus(&editor.focus_handle(cx), cx);
editor
});
let mut move_down = true;
cx.bench_renderer(editor, move |editor, window, cx| {
if move_down {
editor.move_down(&MoveDown, window, cx);
} else {
editor.move_up(&MoveUp, window, cx);
}
move_down = !move_down;
});
}
```
## Example output (release, M-series)
```
editor_render time: [329.75 µs 330.17 µs 330.69 µs]
GPUI bench report (all observed iterations): editor_render
note: includes Criterion warmup/calibration
window dirty-to-draw:
samples: 31533
mean: 0.321ms
p50: 0.322ms
p90: 0.336ms
p95: 0.342ms
p99: 0.360ms
max: 0.504ms
frame budget overruns total: 0
frame budget overruns max: 0
window draw:
samples: 31533
mean: 0.295ms
p50: 0.295ms
p90: 0.307ms
p95: 0.313ms
p99: 0.330ms
max: 0.455ms
frame budget overruns total: 0
frame budget overruns max: 0
invalidations per frame: mean 5.00, max 5
```
(`invalidations per frame: mean 5.00` is real signal: each `move_down`
notifies the window five times before the draw.)
## Known limitations
- **Draw-per-flush**: the harness draws synchronously when effects flush
rather than coalescing invalidations to a vsync tick, so `dirty-to-draw`
excludes queueing delay, and `frame budget overruns` is a draw-time
budget proxy rather than actual missed presents. A frame-paced mode is
natural follow-up work.
- **GPU submission is measured on macOS only**; other platforms have no
headless renderer yet.
- The GPUI report includes Criterion warmup/calibration samples (noted
in the output); Criterion's `time` is the regression-gating number.
- `run_until_idle` waits for queued, running, and already-due work, but
not for timers that haven't reached their due time — the dispatcher runs
in real time and can't skip ahead like `TestDispatcher`'s virtual clock.
## Future work
- A vsync-like frame-pacing mode (suppress draw-on-flush; tick-driven
draw + present) so dirty-to-draw captures queueing delay
- Record present duration in `FrameTiming` so the report can split draw
vs present
- Benches that scroll through novel content (cold layout caches) and an
agent-panel render bench
- Headless renderers for Windows/Linux
- Move benches into a dedicated crate
