## Benchmarks
|
||||
|
||||
Microfetch's performance is mostly hardware-dependant, however, the overall
|
||||
trend seems to be < 2ms on any modern (2015 and after) CPU. Below are the
|
||||
benchmarks with Hyperfine on my desktop system.
|
||||
|
||||
| Command | Mean [ms] | Min [ms] | Max [ms] | Relative |
|
||||
| :-------------------------- | --------: | -------: | -------: | -------: |
|
||||
| `target/release/microfetch` | 1.3 ± 0.1 | 1.2 | 3.7 | 1.00 |
|
||||
|
||||
On an average configuration, this is roughly 25 times faster than fastfetch and
|
||||
around 80 times faster than neofetch. Results, as stated above, may vary.
|
||||
|
||||
## Customizing
|
||||
|
||||
You can't.
|
||||
|
||||
### Why?
|
||||
|
||||
Customization, of any kind, is expensive: I could try reading environment
|
||||
variables, parse command-line arguments or read a configuration file but all of
|
||||
those increment execution time and resource consumption by a lot.
|
||||
|
||||
### Really?
|
||||
|
||||
To be fair, you _can_ customize Microfetch by... Well, patching it. It's not the
|
||||
best way per se, but it will be the only way that does not compromise on speed.
|
||||
|
||||
## Contributing
|
||||
|
||||
I will, mostly, reject feature additions. This is not to say you should avoid
|
||||
them altogether, as you might have a really good idea worth discussing but as a
|
||||
general rule of thumb consider talking to me before creating a feature PR.
|
||||
|
||||
Contributions that help improve performance in specific areas of Microfetch are
|
||||
welcome. Though, prepare to be bombarded with questions.
