Benchmarks

To the greatest extent possible, performance is optimized to be competitive with the standard library. While some ribs features can lag behind their built in counterparts, tt's not uncommon for ribs to outperform the standard library in certain scenarios. Ultimately the best way to determine if ribs is right for your use-case is to test and measure yourself.

Running

There are a number of benchmarks in packages/bench that compare the performance of the different libraries.
