The purpose of this project is to learn about BUN which is a new exiting runtime in Javascript that promises great improvements over NodeJs.
For rust we are using the tokio runtime, it was choosen since it is simpler to work with and performant over something like the, async-std runtime. For our database driver we are using a very common async library called sqlx.
Bun is an exciting new runtime, that promises performance, it might not be fair to use it againts RUST for sqlite operations since from the testings I have done, it seems to be faster.
The test consisted of writing books to a database, which is a postgresql database in docker, it would write 1 by 1 each book several times in parallel, and see how many insertations both systems can have in 2 minutes.
#Results
- Bun: 980000(approx)
- Rust: 120000(approx)
- Implement a proper test
- Implement optimizations for both testings
- Have a way to display the speed diferences
