Added concern for a faster "cache_key" method
This concern provides an optimized/simplified version of the "cache_key" method. This method is about 9 times faster than the default "cache_key" method. The produced cache keys _are_ different from the previous ones but this is worth the performance improvement. To showcase this I set up a benchmark (using benchmark-ips) that compares FasterCacheKeys#cache_key with the regular cache_key. The output of this benchmark was: Calculating ------------------------------------- cache_key 4.825k i/100ms cache_key_fast 21.723k i/100ms ------------------------------------------------- cache_key 59.422k (± 7.2%) i/s - 299.150k cache_key_fast 543.243k (± 9.2%) i/s - 2.694M Comparison: cache_key_fast: 543243.4 i/s cache_key: 59422.0 i/s - 9.14x slower To see the impact on real code I applied these changes and benchmarked Issue#referenced_merge_requests. For an issue referencing 10 merge requests these changes shaved off between 40 and 60 milliseconds.

# A faster version of Rails' "cache_key" method.
|

#
|
||||
# Rails' default "cache_key" method uses all kind of complex logic to figure
|
||||
# out the cache key. In many cases this complexity and overhead may not be
|
||||
# needed.
|
||||
#
|
||||
# This method does not do any timestamp parsing as this process is quite
|
||||
# expensive and not needed when generating cache keys. This method also relies
|
||||
# on the table name instead of the cache namespace name as the latter uses
|
||||
# complex logic to generate the exact same value (as when using the table
|
||||
# name) in 99% of the cases.
