Benchmarks

The content of this repository is automatically updated each time a new commit land to the dev branch of ArkScript (see this workflow to learn how it works).

Languages used versions

• ArkScript: latest
• Lua: 5.4.1
• NodeJS: 18
• Python: 3.11
• Ruby: 3.3
• Wren: 0.4.0

Basic workflow

1. When a commit land to dev on ArkScript, the benchmarks workflow starts
2. It downloads all the languages versions required and compile ArkScript in release
3. The run.sh script starts, making use of hyperfine and json reports
4. The generated json report is then passed to insert_data.py, in charge of creating new entries under data/<language>.json

Data/language.json format

Entries are crafted from the test name (eg ackermann) and the sha256 hash of the source file (in this example, the hash for ackermann/arkscript.ark) ; this way if the source file changes, so does the test since it no longer represents the same thing.

Each test entry is a collection of runs, the newest being the last element of the array, the oldest being the first one. All the times are reported in seconds.

For data/arkscript.json, the commit tested (of ArkScript, not of this repo) is also added.
