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 benchmark versus other worker pools
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:

-Those are our results:

-## How to run benchmarks
+- External pools with which we used to compare the poolifier results:
-### Internal
+ - [node-worker-threads-pool](https://github.com/SUCHMOKUO/node-worker-threads-pool): removed because it does not support dynamic modules import or import outside the task function. The task function is expected to be self-contained, which makes it difficult to use in real world application without ugly hacks.
+ - [worker-threads-pool](https://github.com/watson/worker-threads-pool): removed because unmaintained since more than 4 years.
+ - [threadwork](https://github.com/kevlened/threadwork): removed because unmaintained since more than 3 years.
+ - [microjob](https://github.com/wilk/microjob): removed because unmaintained since more than 5 years.
+ - [threads.js](https://github.com/andywer/threads.js): removed because not a threads pool.
-To run the internal benchmarks, you just need to navigate to the root of poolifier project and run `pnpm benchmark`
