Recently I worked on the porting of bcrypt for Node.js to the new N-API and now I created this repository to do some experiments to estimate the performance against the previous version impelented with NAN.
-
Node.js Version 8.9.3
-
OS macOS - High Sierra (10.13.2)
-
MacBook Pro (13-inch, 2016, Four Thunderbolt 3 Ports)
-
CPU 2,9 GHz Intel Core i5
-
Memory 16 GB 2133 MHz LPDDR3
I created two main experiments one where I used bcrypt to hash a password with
salt round parameter set to 10 and 11, and another where I used
bcrypt to compare password. Obviously I executed this for both synchronous and
asynchronous api that bcrypt expose. Eacher task was repeated 1000 times and than
I considered as result to compare the NAN and N-API version the avarage of the
time execution.
In average the N-API version of the addon is 1.74% faster than NAN version
In average the N-API version of the addon is 1.82% faster than NAN version
In average the N-API version of the addon is 1.29% faster than NAN version
In average the N-API version of the addon is 0.74% faster than NAN version
In average the N-API version of the addon is 4.19% faster than NAN version
In average the N-API version of the addon is 2.97% faster than NAN version
In average the N-API version of the addon is 1.73% faster than NAN version
In average the N-API version of the addon is 1.33% faster than NAN version
You can find all raw data deriving from my work on the folder results
Added little and simple web application and test performance with autocannon the reuslts are very similiar between the bcrypt implemented with N-API and NAN.

Thank you to all people that encourage me every day.
