NAME
App::Benchmark::Accessors - Benchmark accessor generators
DESCRIPTION
This distribution runs benchmarks on various accessor generators. The following generators are being benchmarked:
- Moose
-
mutable and immutable
- Mouse
-
mutable and immutable
- Class::Accessor
- Class::Accessor::Fast
- Class::Accessor::Fast::XS
- Class::XSAccessor::Compat
- Class::Accessor::Complex
- Class::Accessor::Constructor
- Class::Accessor::Classy
- Class::Accessor::Lite
- Mojo::Base
- Class::MethodMaker
- Object::Tiny
- Spiffy
- Class::Spiffy
accessors- Class::XSAccessor
- Class::XSAccessor::Array
- Object::Tiny
- Rose
- Rubyish::Attribute
The benchmarks are being run as part of the test suite; see App::Benchmark. This way you can look at this distribution's CPAN testers page to see the benchmark results on many different platforms and for many different perl versions.
The t/construction.t file benchmarks object creation, t/get.t benchmarks getter methods and t/set.t benchmarks setter methods.
Not every benchmark is run on every module; for example, Object::Tiny doesn't create setter methods, and accessors doesn't generate constructors.
Each benchmark test file takes an optional numeric parameter that is used as the number of iterations.
It's probably a good idea not to read too much into these benchmarks; they could be seen as micro-optimization. However, if you have a complex object hierarchy and create lots of objects and run many many getters/setters on them, they could help to save some time. But be sure to use Devel::NYTProf first to see where your real bottlenecks are.
