Looking up the size of the viewport from the underlying dimensions of
the structures seemed like a good idea at the time (so it would only be
in one place), but it turns out to be more of a perf cost than we
expected. Not necessarily on any one hot path, but if we sort by
functions in WPR, it was the top consumer on the Terminal side. This
instead saves the size as a member of the
TextBuffer
and serves thatout. It only changes when it is constructed or resized traditionally, so
it's easy to update/keep track of. It impacted conhost/conpty to a
lesser degree but was still noticeable.
Validation Steps Performed
time cat big.txt
under WPR. Checked before and after perfmetrics.
