# Node.js Core Benchmarks
This folder contains code and data used to measure performance
of different Node.js implementations and different ways of
writing JavaScript run by the built-in JavaScript engine.
For a detailed guide on how to write and run benchmarks in this
directory, see [the guide on benchmarks](writing-and-running-benchmarks.md).
## Table of Contents
* [Benchmark directories](#benchmark-directories)
* [Common API](#common-api)
## Benchmark Directories
| Directory | Purpose |
| --------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| assert | Benchmarks for the `assert` subsystem. |
| buffers | Benchmarks for the `buffer` subsystem. |
| child\_process | Benchmarks for the `child_process` subsystem. |
| crypto | Benchmarks for the `crypto` subsystem. |
| dgram | Benchmarks for the `dgram` subsystem. |
| domain | Benchmarks for the `domain` subsystem. |
| es | Benchmarks for various new ECMAScript features and their pre-ES2015 counterparts. |
| events | Benchmarks for the `events` subsystem. |
| fixtures | Benchmarks fixtures used in various benchmarks throughout the benchmark suite. |
| fs | Benchmarks for the `fs` subsystem. |
| http | Benchmarks for the `http` subsystem. |
| http2 | Benchmarks for the `http2` subsystem. |
| misc | Miscellaneous benchmarks and benchmarks for shared internal modules. |
| module | Benchmarks for the `module` subsystem. |
| net | Benchmarks for the `net` subsystem. |
| path | Benchmarks for the `path` subsystem. |
| process | Benchmarks for the `process` subsystem. |
| querystring | Benchmarks for the `querystring` subsystem. |
| streams | Benchmarks for the `streams` subsystem. |
| string\_decoder | Benchmarks for the `string_decoder` subsystem. |
| timers | Benchmarks for the `timers` subsystem, including `setTimeout`, `setInterval`, .etc. |
| tls | Benchmarks for the `tls` subsystem. |
| url | Benchmarks for the `url` subsystem, including the legacy `url` implementation and the WHATWG URL implementation. |
| util | Benchmarks for the `util` subsystem. |
| vm | Benchmarks for the `vm` subsystem. |
### Other Top-level files
The top-level files include common dependencies of the benchmarks
and the tools for launching benchmarks and visualizing their output.
The actual benchmark scripts should be placed in their corresponding
directories.
* `_benchmark_progress.js`: implements the progress bar displayed
when running `compare.js`
* `_cli.js`: parses the command line arguments passed to `compare.js`,
`run.js` and `scatter.js`
* `_cli.R`: parses the command line arguments passed to `compare.R`
* `_http-benchmarkers.js`: selects and runs external tools for benchmarking
the `http` subsystem.
* `common.js`: see [Common API](#common-api).
* `compare.js`: command line tool for comparing performance between different
Node.js binaries.
* `compare.R`: R script for statistically analyzing the output of
`compare.js`
* `run.js`: command line tool for running individual benchmark suite(s).
* `scatter.js`: command line tool for comparing the performance
between different parameters in benchmark configurations,
for example to analyze the time complexity.
* `scatter.R`: R script for visualizing the output of `scatter.js` with
scatter plots.
## Common API
The common.js module is used by benchmarks for consistency across repeated
tasks. It has a number of helpful functions and properties to help with
writing benchmarks.
### `createBenchmark(fn, configs[, options])`
See [the guide on writing benchmarks](writing-and-running-benchmarks.md#basics-of-a-benchmark).
### `default_http_benchmarker`
The default benchmarker used to run HTTP benchmarks.
See [the guide on writing HTTP benchmarks](writing-and-running-benchmarks.md#creating-an-http-benchmark).
### `PORT`
The default port used to run HTTP benchmarks.
See [the guide on writing HTTP benchmarks](writing-and-running-benchmarks.md#creating-an-http-benchmark).
### `sendResult(data)`
Used in special benchmarks that can't use `createBenchmark` and the object
it returns to accomplish what they need. This function reports timing
data to the parent process (usually created by running `compare.js`, `run.js` or
`scatter.js`).
