# Performance
|
|
|
|
A test to benchmark the performance of this module relative to alternatives.
|
|
|
|
Greater libvips performance can be expected with caching enabled (default)
|
|
and using 8+ core machines, especially those with larger L1/L2 CPU caches.
|
|
|
|
The I/O limits of the relevant (de)compression library will generally determine maximum throughput.
|
|
|
|
## The contenders
|
|
|
|
* [jimp](https://www.npmjs.com/package/jimp) v0.16.2 - Image processing in pure JavaScript. Provides bicubic interpolation.
|
|
* [imagemagick](https://www.npmjs.com/package/imagemagick) v0.1.3 - Supports filesystem only and "*has been unmaintained for a long time*".
|
|
* [gm](https://www.npmjs.com/package/gm) v1.25.0 - Fully featured wrapper around GraphicsMagick's `gm` command line utility.
|
|
* [@squoosh/lib](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@squoosh/lib) v0.4.0 - Image libraries transpiled to WebAssembly, includes GPLv3 code.
|
|
* [@squoosh/cli](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@squoosh/cli) v0.7.2 - Command line wrapper around `@squoosh/lib`, avoids GPLv3 by spawning process.
|
|
* sharp v0.31.3 / libvips v8.13.3 - Caching within libvips disabled to ensure a fair comparison.
|
|
|
|
## The task
|
|
|
|
Decompress a 2725x2225 JPEG image,
|
|
resize to 720x588 using Lanczos 3 resampling (where available),
|
|
then compress to JPEG at a "quality" setting of 80.
