Usually the number of blocks returned per each time series during queries is around 4.
So it is a good idea to pre-allocate 4 block references per time series
in order to reduce the number of memory allocations.
Previously the -maxConcurrentInserts was limiting the number of established client connections,
which write data to VictoriaMetrics. Some of these connections could be idle.
Such connections do not consume big amounts of CPU and RAM, so there is a little sense in limiting
the number of such connections. So now the -maxConcurrentInserts command-line option
limits the number of concurrently executed insert requests, not including idle connections.
It is recommended removing -maxConcurrentInserts command-line option, since the default value
for this option should work good for most cases.
This should prevent from out of memory errors when big number of vmselect
nodes send many concurrent requests to vmstorage
The limit can be controlled at vmstorage via the following command-line flags:
- search.maxConcurrentRequests
- search.maxQueueDuration
See https://docs.victoriametrics.com/Cluster-VictoriaMetrics.html#resource-usage-limits
- Show in the line tooltip the number of the query which generates the given line.
This simplifies comparison of lines generated by multiple queries.
- Show metric name as __name__ label in the line tooltip in the same way as other labels are shown there.
This makes the label information in the tooltip more consistent.
- Properly quote label values with JSON.stringify(). This prevents from improper formatting
when label values contain doublequote chars.
- Remove double curly braces artifact at graph legend for lines without names and labels.
- Properly use modifier for regular expressions across the code.
There is no need to manually call `queryDuration.UpdateDuration(startTime)`, because `defer queryDuration.UpdateDuration(startTime)` is executed at the beginning of the function(L660).
This simplifies manual usage of the APIs. For example, the following query
would return the results over the 2022 year.
/api/v1/query_range?start=2022&end=2023&step=1d&query=...
This is equivalent to:
/api/v1/query_range?start=2022-01-01T00:00:00Z&end=2023-01-01T00:00:00Z&step=1d&query=...
- Document the feature at docs/CHANGELOG.md.
- Document the metrics explorer at https://docs.victoriametrics.com/#metrics-explorer .
- Properly set `start` and `end` args for the selected time range
when performing the request, which returns metric names.
- Improve queries, so they return lower number of lines and labels.
This should improve metrics' exploration.
- Properly encode label filters and query args before passing them to VictoriaMetrics.
- Various cosmetic fixes.
Updates https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/3386
Previously too short lookbehind window d for rate(m[d]) could be automatically extended
if it didn't cover at least two raw samples. This was needed in order to guarantee
non-empty results from rate(m[d]) on short time ranges.
Now the lookbehind window isn't extended if it is set explicitly,
since it is expected that the user knows what he is doing.
The lookbehind window continues to be extended when needed if it isn't set explicitly.
For example, in the case of rate(m).
Updates https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/3483
support overriding of `-search.latencyOffset` value via
URL param `latency_offset`.

Previously empty series (e.g. series with all NaN samples) were passed to aggregate functions.
Such series must be ingored by all the aggregate functions.
So it is better from consistency PoV filtering out empty series before applying aggregate functions.
* app/vmselect: ignore empty series for `limit_offset`
VictoriaMetrics doesn't return empty series (with all NaN values) to
the user. But such series are filtered after transform functions.
It means `limit_offset` will account for empty series as well.
For example, let's consider following data set:
```
time series:
foo{label="1"} NaN, NaN, NaN, NaN // empty series
foo{label="2"} 1, 2, 3, 4
foo{label="3"} 4, 3, 2, 1
```
When user requests all series for metric `foo` the empty series
will be filtered out:
```
/query=foo:
foo{label="v2"} 1, 2, 3, 4
foo{label="v3"} 4, 3, 2, 1
```
But `limit_offset(1, 1, foo)` is applied to original series, not filtered yet.
So it will return `foo{label="v2"}` (skips the first in list)
```
/query=limit_offset(1, 1, foo):
foo{label="v2"} 1, 2, 3, 4
```
Expected result would be to apply `limit_offset` to already filtered list,
so in result we receive `foo{label="v3"}`:
```
/query=limit_offset(1, 1, foo):
foo{label="v3"} 4, 3, 2, 1
```
The change does exactly that - filters empty series before applying `limit_offset`.

The workaround was introduced to fix https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/962.
However, it didn't prove itself useful. Instead, it is recommended using `increase_pure` function.
Removing the workaround makes VM to produce accurate results when calculating
`delta` or `increase` functions over slow-changing counters with vary intervals
between data points.

or when `-replicationFactor` is set to values higher than 2 at `vmselect`.

than the sequential execution if args contain heavy queries, which may load all the available CPU,

The bug results in `duplicate output time series` error
because the same time series is added two times into the orderedMetricNames list
inside the tmpBlocksFileWrapper.Finalize().
While at it, properly release all the tmpBlocksFile structs on tbf.Finalize() error.
Previously only the remaining tbf entries were released. This could result in resource leak.
* Explicitly store a pointer to UserReadableError in the error interface.
Previously Go automatically converted the value to a pointer before storing in the error interface.

* Document the change in docs/CHANGELOG.md
When read query fails, VM returns rich error message with
all the details. While these details might be useful
for debugging specific cases, they're usually too verbose
for users.
Introducing a new error type `UserReadableError` is supposed
to allow to return to user only the most important parts
of the error trace. This supposed to improve error readability
in web interfaces such as VMUI or Grafana.
The full error trace is still logged with the full context
and can be found in vmselect logs.

This should improve vmselect performance scalability on systems with many CPU cores.
The following tasks were done:
- Use separate temporary files for storing the data read from each vmstorage node.
This may result in the following potential issues:
- Up to N times higher memory usage for performing each query where N is the number
of vmstorage nodes known to vmselect.
This issue shouldn't increase chances of out of memory errors in most cases,
since per-query memory overhead is quite low comparing to the overall vmselect memory usage.
- Up to N times higher number of open temporary files where N is the number
of vmstorage nodes known to vmselect.
This issue should be fixed by increasing the limit on the number of open files.
- Use separate counters per each vmstorage node for various stats calculation
when reading the data from vmstorage nodes.
Previously a single syncwg.WaitGroup was used for tracking the lifetime of processBlock callbacks
across all the per-vmstorage goroutines. This could be slow on systems with many CPU cores
because of inter-CPU synchronization overhead.
Use a separate per-vmstorage sync.WaitGroup instead in order to reduce inter-CPU synchronization overhead.
This should imrpove performance for heavy queries over big number of blocks on multi-CPU systems.
