Languages

A repo for collaboratively building small benchmarks to compare languages. If you have a suggestion for improvement: PR! If you want to add a language: PR!

Running

To run one of the benchmarks:

  1. cd into desired benchmark directory (EG $ cd loops)
  2. Compile by running $ bash ../compile.sh
  3. Run via $ bash ../run.sh. You should see output something like:
$ bash ../run.sh
C = 0.77
Go = 2.07
Node = 0.79
Bun = 0.83
Deno = 1.13
PyPy = 1.61
$
  1. For good measure, execute $ bash ../clean.sh when finished.

Adding

To add a language:

  1. Select the benchmark directory you want to add to (EG $ cd loops)
  2. Create a new subdirectory for the language (EG $ mkdir rust)
  3. Implement the code in the appropriately named file (EG: code.rs)
  4. If the language is compiled, add appropriate command to ../compile.sh and ../clean.sh
  5. Add appropriate line to ../run.sh

You are also welcome to add new top-level benchmarks dirs

Available Benchmarks

loops

Emphasizes loop, conditional, and basic math performance.

fibonacci

Emphasizes function call overhead and recursion.
