Testing Queue Implementations

Was curious about the performance of a few different queue implementation options.

Queue Implementations

SplicingQueue

store: Array
index: natural
dequeue: splice() method

DeletingQueue (link)

store: Object
index: manual
dequeue: delete o[index]

UndefinedQueue

store: Object
index: manual
dequeue: o[index] = undefined

MapQueue

store: Map
index: manual
dequeue: m.delete(index)

MapUndefQueue

store: Map
index: manual
dequeue: m.set(index, undefined)

Results

Implementation \ Iterations	10000	100000
SplicingQueue	10.07ms	3,054.83ms
DeletingQueue	5.78ms	13.26ms
UndefinedQueue	5.28ms	9.25ms
MapQueue	6.72ms	19.55ms
MapUndefQueue	6.67ms	17.27ms

System

CPU: Ryzen R9 3950X
RAM: 32GB DDR4 @ 3200mhz
Windows Desktop with misc background applications.

Environment

WSL2 (Windows 10)
Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
Node 14.16.0
