z.lua is fast enough for most case, the path tracking action will be triggered each time when you change your current directory.

So I still recommend the pure lua script for portability and flexibility, but for someone who really care about 10ms or 1ms things, this module can help them to gain the ultimate speed.

• Speed up z.lua for history tracking and matching.
• 20 times smaller than zoxide in binary size.
• 4-5 times faster than the rust project zoxide.
• Easy to install.

sudo apt-get install musl-tools

git clone https://github.com/skywind3000/czmod.git ~/github/czmod
cd ~/github/czmod
sh build.sh

czmod must be initialized after z.lua:

bash:

eval "$(lua ~/github/z.lua/z.lua --init bash enhanced once echo)"
source ~/github/czmod/czmod.bash

zsh:

eval "$(lua ~/github/z.lua/z.lua --init zsh enhanced once echo)"
source ~/github/czmod/czmod.zsh

Average performance:
