Optimize health watching to single chan/goroutine. (#5449)
Refs #4984.

Watching chans for every node we touch in a health query is wasteful. In #4984 it shows that if there are more than 682 service instances we always fallback to watching all services which kills performance.

We already have a record in MemDB that is reliably update whenever the service health result should change thanks to per-service watch indexes.

So in general, provided there is at least one service instances and we actually have a service index for it (we always do now) we only ever need to watch a single channel.

This saves us from ever falling back to the general index and causing the performance cliff in #4984, but it also means fewer goroutines and work done for every blocking health query.

It also saves some allocations made during the query because we no longer have to populate a WatchSet with 3 chans per service instance which saves the internal map allocation.

This passes all state store tests except the one that explicitly checked for the fallback behaviour we've now optimized away and in general seems safe.

Consul Build Status Join the chat at https://gitter.im/hashicorp-consul/Lobby

Consul is a tool for service discovery and configuration. Consul is distributed, highly available, and extremely scalable.

Consul provides several key features:

  • Service Discovery - Consul makes it simple for services to register themselves and to discover other services via a DNS or HTTP interface. External services such as SaaS providers can be registered as well.

  • Health Checking - Health Checking enables Consul to quickly alert operators about any issues in a cluster. The integration with service discovery prevents routing traffic to unhealthy hosts and enables service level circuit breakers.

  • Key/Value Storage - A flexible key/value store enables storing dynamic configuration, feature flagging, coordination, leader election and more. The simple HTTP API makes it easy to use anywhere.

  • Multi-Datacenter - Consul is built to be datacenter aware, and can support any number of regions without complex configuration.

  • Service Segmentation - Consul Connect enables secure service-to-service communication with automatic TLS encryption and identity-based authorization.

Consul runs on Linux, Mac OS X, FreeBSD, Solaris, and Windows. A commercial version called Consul Enterprise is also available.

Please note: We take Consul's security and our users' trust very seriously. If you believe you have found a security issue in Consul, please responsibly disclose by contacting us at security@hashicorp.com.
