This is like #9556, but at the level of all other builds, including the resolver and installer. Going through PEP 517 to build a package is slow, so when building a package with the uv build backend, we can call into the uv build backend directly instead: No temporary virtual env, no temp venv sync, no python subprocess calls, no uv subprocess calls. This fast path is gated through preview. Since the uv wheel is not available at test time, I've manually confirmed the feature by comparing `uv venv && cargo run pip install . -v --preview --reinstall .` and `uv venv && cargo run pip install . -v --reinstall .`. When hacking the preview so that the python uv build backend works without the setting the direct build also (wheel built with `maturin build --profile profiling`), we can see the perfomance difference: ``` $ hyperfine --prepare "uv venv" --warmup 3 \ "UV_PREVIEW=1 target/profiling/uv pip install --no-deps --reinstall scripts/packages/built-by-uv --preview" \ "target/profiling/uv pip install --no-deps --reinstall scripts/packages/built-by-uv --find-links target/wheels/" Benchmark 1: UV_PREVIEW=1 target/profiling/uv pip install --no-deps --reinstall scripts/packages/built-by-uv --preview Time (mean ± σ): 33.1 ms ± 2.5 ms [User: 25.7 ms, System: 13.0 ms] Range (min … max): 29.8 ms … 47.3 ms 73 runs Benchmark 2: target/profiling/uv pip install --no-deps --reinstall scripts/packages/built-by-uv --find-links target/wheels/ Time (mean ± σ): 115.1 ms ± 4.3 ms [User: 54.0 ms, System: 27.0 ms] Range (min … max): 109.2 ms … 123.8 ms 25 runs Summary UV_PREVIEW=1 target/profiling/uv pip install --no-deps --reinstall scripts/packages/built-by-uv --preview ran 3.48 ± 0.29 times faster than target/profiling/uv pip install --no-deps --reinstall scripts/packages/built-by-uv --find-links target/wheels/ ``` Do we need a global option to disable the fast path? There is one for `uv build` because `--force-pep517` moves `uv build` much closer to a `pip install` from source that a user of a library would experience (See discussion at #9610), but uv overall doesn't really make guarantees around the build env of dependencies, so I consider the direct build a valid option. Best reviewed commit-by-commit, only the last commit is the actual implementation, while the preview mode introduction is just a refactoring touching too many files. |
