Returns the index of the function in an array of functions which executed the fastest.
|
|
|
|
- Use `Array.prototype.map()` to generate an array where each value is the total time taken to execute the function after `iterations` times.
|
|
- Use the difference in `performance.now()` values before and after to get the total time in milliseconds to a high degree of accuracy.
|
|
- Use `Math.min()` to find the minimum execution time, and return the index of that shortest time which corresponds to the index of the most performant function.
|
|
- Omit the second argument, `iterations`, to use a default of `10000` iterations.
|
|
- The more iterations, the more reliable the result but the longer it will take.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const mostPerformant = (fns, iterations = 10000) => {
|
|
const times = fns.map(fn => {
|
|
const before = performance.now();
|
|
for (let i = 0; i < iterations; i++) fn();
|
|
return performance.now() - before;
|
|
});
|
|
return times.indexOf(Math.min(...times));
|
|
};
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
mostPerformant([
|
|
() => {
|
|
// Loops through the entire array before returning `false`
|
|
[1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, '10'].every(el => typeof el === 'number');
|
|
},
|
|
() => {
|
|
// Only needs to reach index `1` before returning `false`
|
|
[1, '2', 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10].every(el => typeof el === 'number');
|
|
}
|
|
]); // 1
