# Poolifier Benchmarks

Welcome to poolifier benchmarks and thanks to look into this project.

## Folder Structure

The [internal](./internal) folder contains poolifier internal benchmarks.  
The [versus-external-pools](./versus-external-pools) folder contains benchmarks versus other Node.js pools.

## Poolifier vs other pools benchmark

To compare poolifier pools performance vs other pools performance we chose to use [hyperfine](https://github.com/sharkdp/hyperfine).  
We chose to use this tool because it allows to run isolated Node.js processes so that each pool does not impact each other.  
External pools with which we compared the poolifier results:

- [piscina](https://github.com/piscinajs/piscina)
- [SUCHMOKUO/node-worker-threads-pool](https://github.com/SUCHMOKUO/node-worker-threads-pool)
- [threads.js](https://github.com/andywer/threads.js/)
- [workerpool](https://github.com/josdejong/workerpool)
- [threadwork](https://github.com/kevlened/threadwork)
- [microjob](https://github.com/wilk/microjob)

Those are our results:

- CPU Intensive task with 100k operations submitted to each pool [BENCH-100000.md](./versus-external-pools/BENCH-100000.md).

> :warning: **We would need funds to run our benchmarks more often and on Cloud VMs, please consider to sponsor this project**

## How to run benchmarks
