NAME
serializer-perf - Performance tests for Raku data serializer codecs
SYNOPSIS
serializer-perf [--runs=UInt] [--count=UInt] [--source=Path]
--runs=<UInt> Runs per test (for stable results)
--count=<UInt> Encodes/decodes per run (for sufficient duration)
--source=<Path> Test file containing JSON data
DESCRIPTION
serializer-perf
is a test suite of performance and correctness (fidelity) tests for Raku data serializer codecs. It is currently able to test the following codecs:
(Note: JSON::Hjson
is a decoder only, and has no native encode ability. Thus performance and fidelity was tested against inputs in the JSON subset of Hjson, though of course the point of Hjson is to allow more human-friendly variation in data formatting -- similar to YAML in that respect. Similarly, MessagePack
is a decoder only as well, with no native encode ability; it was tested with data packed by Data::MessagePack
.)
Because some of the tests are very slow, the default values for --runs
and --count
are 1 and 10 respectively. If only testing the faster codecs (those with Speed of Fair or better in the table above), these will be too low; 5 and 100 are more appropriate values in that case.
