VSCode suggested this could be async, so I let it :) Thoughts on changing asynchronous syntax? FWIW, V8 just improved the performance of await to match Promises.

Thoughts on changing asynchronous syntax?

Totally fine. Since we adopted Node 8 as the base requirement we've mostly just followed the rule of only changing from Promises to async/await when we're touching the code for some other reason (see initial discussion in #3742), but to convert (or not) at will if that's the case.

We have some tricky uses of promises (see #6343 :) that need real review, which mass changes make difficult, especially since the indentation level changes and the git diffs end up not always the best, even when ignoring whitespace. We (I?) also end up using git blame a lot, and random changes in unrelated PRs make that annoying :)

It's definitely a fuzzy line, though, and sometimes drive by fixes are great.

(This case is totally different, though, because it's fundamentally changing anyways, so it's a prime candidate for fixing.)

so simple and clean I love it nice work!

I am slightly worried about the commands that are going to come out of the woodwork failing though. I would want to trying running LH on some crappier hardware on some gnarly URLs (@paulirish has a ton of phones :)) and find the longest commands we have right now.

Can we keep this at 1s? expanding to 5 could dramatically slow down the failure case when 3 of these go wrong :/

I afraid we'll need to make timeout a setting on sendCommand with a global default :/

We can move to that if it's really needed. It could complicate usage quite a bit, that + the unique typing on the method, I think the best option would be this:

/**
 * Call protocol methods.
 * @template {keyof LH.CrdpCommands} C
 * @param {C|{method: C, timeout: number}} methodOrOpts
 * @param {LH.CrdpCommands[C]['paramsType']} params,
 * @return {Promise<LH.CrdpCommands[C]['returnType']>}
 */
sendCommand(methodOrOpts, ...params) {
  const {method, timeout} = typeof methodOrOpts === 'object' ? methodOrOpts : {
    method: methodOrOpts,
    timeout: DEFAULT_PROTOCOL_TIMEOUT
  }
}

That way, the calling code for most use cases can remain the same.

I removed REQUEST_CONTENT_TIMEOUT ... instead of making a new enum value for PROTOCOL_TIMEOUT, could we just reuse REQUEST_CONTENT_TIMEOUT's enum (rename it)? Would that be OK for proto compat?

nope, can't rename.

But actually looks like we never exposed REQUEST_CONTENT_TIMEOUT in the proto. So I think we're OK. :)

maybe drop keep the promise just to the thing that has to be a promise? e.g.

return new Promise(async (resolve, reject) => {
  const asyncTimeout = setTimeout((_ => {
    const err = new LHError(LHError.errors.PROTOCOL_TIMEOUT);
    err.message += ` Method: ${method}`;
    reject(err);
  }), this._protocolTimeout);

  try {
    const result = await this._connection.sendCommand(method, ...params);
    clearTimeout(asyncTimeout);
    resolve(result);
  } catch (err) {
    clearTimeout(asyncTimeout);
    reject(err);
  }
});

ok, options:

  1. sendCommand(methodOrOpts, ...params)
  2. call setNextProtocolTimeout(60000) right before sendCommand() and have it reset itself after that next sendCommand call
  3. have sendCommand() have a 5s default, but have a second unboundedSendCommand() that can be called if needed (e.g. by evaluateAsync)
  4. some kind of sneaky currying that we haven't figured out yet
  5. wait for the typescript team to support appending to tuple types/parameters

other options? (1) worries me about exposing complexity for the 5% case that may be with us forever (see: every js API that takes as its first parameter a string, or if it's a number it acts like this, or if it's an object it's an options object, or if it's a stream it...). OTOH it is overhead when writing code, but is fairly self explanatory when reading it, and I take @hoten's point that it's basically equivalent to (2)

lhrRuntimeError: true,
},

@patrickhulce I'll test it out on some slower devices today.

@connorjclark

Tested on an old Nexus 4 device. Didn't come across any protocol timeouts.

@connorjclark

Got some timings. https://gist.github.com/Hoten/de38179b2d941b6d195c3c4383d0bd8d

Runtime.evaluate took ~9s on Nexus 4 (this command has an explicit 60s timeout). The next slowest was ~4.1s (brushing up on the 5s timeout). Everything that took longer than 1s seems related to font stuff (CSS.getComputedStyleForNode), which I think we are getting rid of soon? If not, we might consider 1) increasing the timeout for those commands or 2) instead of sending them all at once, send them in batches.

Yup looks like it's the font-size gatherer:

async function fetchComputedFontSize(driver, textNode) {
try {
const {computedStyle} = await driver.sendCommand('CSS.getComputedStyleForNode', {
nodeId: textNode.parentId,
});

I was hoping it was the fonts one that was removed this morning. but alas.

TBH I think that situation is OK. I don't really want the font-size gatherer taking >5s.

Is this still true now? Maybe add a bit more to the comment then because I haven't the faintest clue how we can remove the method and the variadic types header at the top of that issue just makes me dizzy 🤣

Oh, this is referring to sendCommand. That might be the confusion...

My understanding is that the linked issue will eventually allow types such as:

type TypedArray = [string, number];
type ExtendedTypedArray = TypedArray + [string];
const value: ExtendedTypedArray = ['', 12, ''];

If so, we'd be able to type that variadic parameter as LH.CrdpCommands[C]['paramsType'] + [?{timeout: number}]

Yup looks like it's the font-size gatherer

That gatherer sends all those CSS.getComputedStyleForNode commands at once, up to 500, depending on the page's node count. It's possible command overhead/contention causes issues, especially on an older phone. We could try doing them in batches instead of all at once to see if that's a solution.

It's also remotely possible we hit some gross style-recalc issue, depending on the page and how the commands are coming in. It's possible it would be more efficient to do all the lookups in the page at once with evaluateAsync, since we could guarantee running them all in the same turn of the event loop/without reforcing layout. We'd have to resync node info and debugger nodeIds, though. Maybe there's a similar coalesced solution, though.
