Benchmarks

Absolute times vary by repo and machine. These hyperfine samples were captured in this repo.

  ls — mean execution time (lower is better)

gt sync was not included in this sample set, so the rs row does not include a Graphite comparison.

Summary from the sample runs:

• st ls was ~16.25x faster than fp ls
• st ls was ~10.05x faster than gt ls
• st rs was ~2.41x faster than fp rs

ls

Command:

hyperfine 'stax ls' 'fp ls' 'gt ls' --warmup 2

Raw output:

Benchmark 1: stax ls
  Time (mean ± σ):      45.5 ms ±   6.9 ms    [User: 10.0 ms, System: 12.0 ms]
  Range (min … max):    40.3 ms …  89.5 ms    59 runs

  Warning: Statistical outliers were detected. Consider re-running this benchmark on a quiet system without any interferences from other programs. It might help to use the '--warmup' or '--prepare' options.

Benchmark 2: fp ls
  Time (mean ± σ):     739.7 ms ±  23.9 ms    [User: 353.1 ms, System: 208.9 ms]
  Range (min … max):   705.2 ms … 769.8 ms    10 runs

Benchmark 3: gt ls
  Time (mean ± σ):     457.7 ms ±  96.8 ms    [User: 239.3 ms, System: 88.4 ms]
  Range (min … max):   355.0 ms … 647.4 ms    10 runs

Summary
  stax ls ran
   10.05 ± 2.61 times faster than gt ls
   16.25 ± 2.50 times faster than fp ls

rs

Command:

hyperfine 'stax rs' 'fp rs'

Raw output:

Benchmark 1: stax rs
  Time (mean ± σ):      2.807 s ±  0.129 s    [User: 0.365 s, System: 0.361 s]
  Range (min … max):    2.543 s …  3.006 s    10 runs

Benchmark 2: fp rs
  Time (mean ± σ):      6.769 s ±  0.717 s    [User: 0.673 s, System: 0.981 s]
  Range (min … max):    6.038 s …  7.824 s    10 runs

Summary
  stax rs ran
    2.41 ± 0.28 times faster than fp rs
