This project is part of the @thi.ng/umbrella monorepo.
Benchmarking utilities w/ various statistics & formatters (CSV, Markdown etc.).
Though no public API change (only additions), since v2.0.0 this library
internally attempts to use high-res ES
BigInt
timestamps (in Node via
process.hrtime.bigint()).
If BigInt is not available in the target environment, timestamps are
still only sourced via Date.now().
STABLE - used in production

executing the main measurement and producing a number of useful
statistics: mean, median, min/max, 1st/3rd quartile, standard deviation
(as percentage)...

Also see the formatting section below for other output options. This example uses the default format...

The following output formatters are available. Custom formatters can be easily
defined (see source for examples). Formatters are configured via the format
option given to benchmark() or suite().
FORMAT_DEFAULT- default plain text formattingFORMAT_CSV- Comma-separated values (w/ column header)FORMAT_MD- Markdown table format
