tinybench
Benchmark your code easily with Tinybench, a simple, tiny and light-weight 7KB
(2KB
minified and gzipped)
benchmarking library!
You can run your benchmarks in multiple JavaScript runtimes, Tinybench is
completely based on the Web APIs with proper timing using process.hrtime
or
performance.now
.
- Accurate and precise timing based on the environment
Event
andEventTarget
compatible events- Statistically analyzed values
- Calculated Percentiles
- Fully detailed results
- No dependencies
In case you need more tiny libraries like tinypool or tinyspy, please consider submitting an RFC
Installing
$ npm install -D tinybench
Usage
You can start benchmarking by instantiating the Bench
class and adding
benchmark tasks to it.
import { Bench } from 'tinybench';
const bench = new Bench({ time: 100 });
bench
.add('faster task', () => {
console.log('I am faster')
})
.add('slower task', async () => {
await new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, 1)) // we wait 1ms :)
console.log('I am slower')
})
.todo('unimplemented bench')
await bench.run();
console.table(bench.table());
// Output:
// ┌─────────┬───────────────┬──────────┬────────────────────┬───────────┬─────────┐
// │ (index) │ Task Name │ ops/sec │ Average Time (ns) │ Margin │ Samples │
// ├─────────┼───────────────┼──────────┼────────────────────┼───────────┼─────────┤

// │ 1 │ 'slower task' │ '828' │ 1207382.7838323202 │ '±7.07%' │ 83 │
// └─────────┴───────────────┴──────────┴────────────────────┴───────────┴─────────┘
console.table(
bench.todos.map(({ name }) => ({
'Task name': name,
})),
);
// Output:
// ┌─────────┬───────────────────────┐
// │ (index) │ Task name │
// ├─────────┼───────────────────────┤
// │ 0 │ 'unimplemented bench' │
// └─────────┴───────────────────────┘
The add
method accepts a task name and a task function, so it can benchmark
it! This method returns a reference to the Bench instance, so it's possible to
use it to create an another task for that instance.
Note that the task name should always be unique in an instance, because Tinybench stores the tasks based
on their names in a Map
.
Also note that tinybench
does not log any result by default. You can extract the relevant stats
from bench.tasks
or any other API after running the benchmark, and process them however you want.

Task
A class that represents each benchmark task in Tinybench. It keeps track of the results, name, Bench instance, the task function and the number of times the task function has been executed.

Events
Both the Task
and Bench
objects extend the EventTarget
object, so you can attach listeners to different types of events
in each class instance using the universal addEventListener
and
removeEventListener
.
/**
* Bench events
*/
export type BenchEvents =
| "abort" // when a signal aborts
| "complete" // when running a benchmark finishes
| "error" // when the benchmark task throws
| "reset" // when the reset function gets called
| "start" // when running the benchmarks gets started
| "warmup" // when the benchmarks start getting warmed up (before start)
| "cycle" // when running each benchmark task gets done (cycle)
| "add" // when a Task gets added to the Bench
| "remove" // when a Task gets removed of the Bench
| "todo"; // when a todo Task gets added to the Bench
/**
* task events
*/
export type TaskEvents =
| "abort"
| "complete"
| "error"
| "reset"
| "start"
| "warmup"
| "cycle";
For instance:
// runs on each benchmark task's cycle
bench.addEventListener("cycle", (e) => {
const task = e.task!;
});
// runs only on this benchmark task's cycle
task.addEventListener("cycle", (e) => {
const task = e.task!;
});
BenchEvent
export type BenchEvent = Event & {
task: Task | null;
};
