- graphql-jit helps
- apollo-server adds overhead
- tracing resolvers kills performance
- type-graphql adds overhead
This is a fork of node-graphql-benchmark repo and has following changes:
- Changed default setting for benchmark as this repo contains worker-thread examples so it takes more time to start.
- All benchmarks that perform slower than http server are moved to others folder subfolder of benchmark folder.
- Fixed bug in go-graphql benchmark and it turns out to be very slow.
- Dependencies updates
- For metrics (cold-start) see metrics.md
