quick-bench

JavaScript Quick Benchmark Tool

Requirements

• NodeJS v5.11.x or higher
• NPM

See ./package.json

Installation

Source available on GitHub or install module via NPM:

$ npm install quick-bench

Usage

After requiring quick-benchmark create a new instance. Call the start method, log some events, then call the end method and finally the results method to obtain quick benchmarks for JavaScript code.

var Benchmark = require('quick-bench')
 
var benchmark = new Benchmark()
 
benchmark.start() // time is recorded in ms
 
// todo some application code
 
benchmark.event('eventLabelOne')
 
benchmark.event('eventLabelOne') // events should occur many times to get useful benchmarks
 
// todo some more application code
 
benchmark.event('eventLabelTwo') // n number of events can be logged
 
// todo perhaps some more code
 
var results = benchmark.results() // automatically calls benchmark.end()

The above will set the results variable equal to an object with the following format:

{
    elapsedTime: milliseconds,
    events: {
        eventLabelOne: {
            total: 2,
            perSecond: total / (elapsedTime / 1000)
        },
        eventLabelTwo: {
            total: 1,
            perSecond: total / (elapsedTime / 1000)
        },
    }
}

That's it! As the module name implies this package is designed for quick benchmarks.
