# router-benchmark

[![js-standard-style](https://img.shields.io/badge/code%20style-standard-brightgreen.svg?style=flat)](http://standardjs.com/) [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/delvedor/router-benchmark.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/delvedor/router-benchmark)

Benchmark of the most commonly used http routers.

Tested routers:

- [find-my-way](https://github.com/delvedor/find-my-way)
- [call](https://github.com/hapijs/call)
- [express](https://www.npmjs.com/package/express)
- [koa-router](https://github.com/alexmingoia/koa-router)
- [koa-tree-router](https://github.com/steambap/koa-tree-router)
- [router](https://github.com/pillarjs/router)
- [routr](https://github.com/yahoo/routr)
- [server-router](https://github.com/yoshuawuyts/server-router)
- [trek-router](https://www.npmjs.com/package/trek-router)

This benchmarks aims to test only http routers, so the method handling should be included.  
Do you know other routers? [PR](https://github.com/delvedor/router-benchmark/pulls)! :D

## How the benchmark is taken

To emulate a real world situation every router registers the following routes:
```
{ method: 'GET', url: '/user' },
{ method: 'GET', url: '/user/comments' },
{ method: 'GET', url: '/user/avatar' },
{ method: 'GET', url: '/user/lookup/username/:username' },
{ method: 'GET', url: '/user/lookup/email/:address' },
{ method: 'GET', url: '/event/:id' },
{ method: 'GET', url: '/event/:id/comments' },
{ method: 'POST', url: '/event/:id/comment' },
{ method: 'GET', url: '/map/:location/events' },
{ method: 'GET', url: '/status' },
{ method: 'GET', url: '/very/deeply/nested/route/hello/there' },
{ method: 'GET', url: '/static/*' }
```
Then the following routes are tested:
```
short static: { method: 'GET', url: '/user' }
static with same radix: { method: 'GET', url: '/user/comments' }
dynamic route: { method: 'GET', url: '/user/lookup/username/john' }
mixed static dynamic: { method: 'GET', url: '/event/abcd1234/comments' },
long static: { method: 'GET', url: '/very/deeply/nested/route/hello/there' },
wildcard: { method: 'GET', url: '/static/index.html' }
all together: all the above at the same time
```
Every test is executed 1 million times, the time is taken with `process.hrtime()`, the final result is expressed in operations per second.
