With herein proposed change one can pass an optional filter to `enso --run test/Benchmarks` to execute only groups and specs that contain given string in its name.
While trying to speed `MetadataStorage` up - #8324 - I felt the need to have an independent (on my computer) measurement of startup time. Here is a benchmark that measures how long execution of two simple hello world programs take.
# Important Notes
There are two benchmarks:
- `empty_startup` measures the time needed to boot without using any `Standard` library - basically _an overhead of the JVM and engine_
- `hello_world_startup` measures the use of `IO.println` - it shall take longer than `empty_startup` and show the overhead we have while processing the standard library
- Add a `File_For_Read` type. Used for `File_Format` to read files.
- Added `Enso_User` representing the current user in `Enso_Cloud`.
- *Will be later able to list known users.*
- Added `Enso_Secret` representing a value defined in `Enso_Cloud`.
- Value not used within Enso only accessed within polyglot Java.
- Integrated into `Username_And_Password` and can be used within JDBC connections.
- Integrated into HTTP Headers so a secret can be used as a value.
- New `URI_With_Query` with the same API as `URI`. Supporting secrets in the value.
- *Will be integrated with AWS credentials.*
- Added `Enso_File` representing a file or a folder in the cloud.
- Support the same API as `File` (like the `S3_File`).
- *Will support `enso://` URI style access.*

# Important Notes
- After this PR, one can theoretically run enso with any JRE with version at least 21.
- Removed `sbt bootstrap` hack and all the other build time related hacks related to the handling of GraalVM distribution.
- `project-manager` remains backward compatible - it can open older engines with runtimes. New engines now do no longer require a separate runtime to be downloaded.
- sbt does not support compilation of `module-info.java` files in mixed projects - https://github.com/sbt/sbt/issues/3368
- Which means that we can have `module-info.java` files only for Java-only projects.
- Anyway, we need just a single `module-info.class` in the resulting `runtime.jar` fat jar.
- `runtime.jar` is assembled in `runtime-with-instruments` with a custom merge strategy (`sbt-assembly` plugin). Caching is disabled for custom merge strategies, which means that re-assembly of `runtime.jar` will be more frequent.
- Engine distribution contains multiple JAR archives (modules) in `component` directory, along with `runner/runner.jar` that is hidden inside a nested directory.
- The new entry point to the engine runner is [EngineRunnerBootLoader](https://github.com/enso-org/enso/pull/7991/files#diff-9ab172d0566c18456472aeb95c4345f47e2db3965e77e29c11694d3a9333a2aa) that contains a custom ClassLoader - to make sure that everything that does not have to be loaded from a module is loaded from `runner.jar`, which is not a module.
- The new command line for launching the engine runner is in [distribution/bin/enso](https://github.com/enso-org/enso/pull/7991/files#diff-0b66983403b2c329febc7381cd23d45871d4d555ce98dd040d4d1e879c8f3725)
- [Newest version of Frgaal](https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/frgaal/compiler/20.0.1/) (20.0.1) does not recognize `--source 21` option, only `--source 20`.
- Closes#5303
- Refactors `JoinStrategy` allowing us to 'stack' join strategies on top of each other (to some extent) - currently a `HashJoin` can be followed by another join strategy (currently `SortJoin`)
- Adds benchmarks for join
- Due to limitations of the sorting approach this will still not be as fast as possible for cases where there is more than 1 `Between` condition in a single query - trying to demonstrate that in benchmarks.
- We can replace sorting by d-dimensional [RangeTrees](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Range_tree) to get `O((n + m) log^d n + k)` performance (where `n` and `m` are sizes of joined tables, `d` is the amount of `Between` conditions used in the query and `k` is the result set size).
- Follow up ticket for consideration later:
#8216
- Closes#8215
- After all, it turned out that `TreeSet` was problematic (because of not enough flexibility with duplicate key handling), so the simplest solution was to immediately implement this sub-task.
- Closes#8204
- Unrelated, but I ran into this here: adds type checks to other arguments of `set`.
- Before, putting in a Column as `new_name` (i.e. mistakenly messing up the order of arguments), lead to a hard to understand `Method `if_then_else` of type Column could not be found.`, instead now it would file with type error 'expected Text got Column`.
- Sets the default limit for `Table.read` in Database to be max 1000 rows.
- The limit for in-memory compatible API still defaults to `Nothing`.
- Adds a warning if there are more rows than limit.
- Enables a few unrelated asserts.

Added Blank_Selector constructor and applied to remove_blank_columns, select_blank_columns, filter_blank_rows for #7931 . Changed when_any to when for readability.
Previously, constant columns were given generated names with UUIDs in them, which are long and provide no information. Instead, we now use the constant value itself to form the name.
Since these new generated names are less unique, we must explicitly make them unique, in cases where the caller did not explicilty set a name.
- Closes#7981
- Adds a `RUNTIME_ERROR` operation into the DB dialect, that may be used to 'crash' a query if a condition is met - used to validate if `lookup_and_replace` invariants are still satisfied when the query is materialized.
- Removes old `Table_Helpers.is_table` and `same_backend` checks, in favour of the new way of checking this that relies on `Table.from` conversions, and is much simpler to use and also more robust.
After a discussion, I was really curious that our panics are supposed to be almost free - and while trusting that statement, it was really hard to believe - so I wanted to see for myself - knowing that an experiment is the most robust source of this kind of information - testing that in practice.
So I wrote a benchmark comparing various ways of reporting errors, also testing them both at 'shallow' and 'deep' stack traces (adding 200 additional frames) - to see how stack depth affects them, if at all.
The panics are indeed blazing fast! Kudos to the engine team. However, it seems that our dataflow errors are relatively slow (and we tend to use them _more_ than panics and want to be using them more and more). This uncovers a possible optimization opportunity. Can we make them as fast as panics??
Analysis of the benchmark results in comment below.
- Fixes#8049
- Adds tests for handling of Date_Time upload/download in Postgres.
- Adds tests for edge cases of handling of Decimal and Binary types in Postgres.
- Fixes issue with `to_display_text` on `Date_Time`. Now a reversible format.
- Adjusted the auto width code on table so it works.
- Manually sized columns should remain fixed size.
- Enable Excel range style selection in table.
- Removed page support as not implemented yet.
# Important Notes
Will need to apply to Vue based viz at some point as well.
- Follow-up of #8055
- Adds a benchmark comparing performance of Enso Map and Java HashMap in two scenarios - _only incremental_ updates (like `Vector.distinct`) and _replacing_ updates (like keeping a counter for each key). These benchmarks can be used as a metric for #8090
- Adds the ability to use numbers, date/time and Boolean values as constants in `set`.
- `Table.set` can take a `Column_Operation`, allowing for deriving of a new column based on other columns.
- Added `Column_Ref` type to refer to a column in `filter`.
- Added some ALIASes.
- Added `sheet` to `Excel_Workbook` to give familiar API to read sheet.
- Added conversion from range to vector allowing easy use with Zip.
- Add `Map.from_keys_and_values.
- Fixes a bug where creating a temporary table could accidentally issue a `DROP` statement of the table name that the user provided, risking destruction of user data.
- Fortunately, the bad scenario was almost impossible, because the `DROP` statement was only issued _if_ we previously checked that the mentioned table _does not exist_ - dropping a nonexistent table does not do any harm.
- It could have been dangerous in a very unlikely scenario that a table was created just between the _existence check_ and the _drop_.
- After the fix the existence check and any modifications are done within a transaction to avoid interference from concurrent modifications, and the DROP is correctly applied to a temporary Enso table instead of the original one.
- Replaced a temporary log with proper simple logging of SQL statements into a file, if an Environment variable is set.
- Used that feature to test that no unexpected statements occur.
- Closes#7749 implementing the in-memory logic.
- Additional complications have surfaced regarding the Database logic, so it has been split off into a separate ticket: #7981

- Use type checking in `Table.set` to allow for conversion to a `Column`.
- Remove some unused imports.
- Fix for bug in S3 edge case.
