This benchmark is pretty useless.

There's no benchmark code shown to see if they're doing something wrong or cherrypicking.

Also, they only tested on arm64? Why weren't they testing on x86-64?

And what the hell is this test?

Common data transformation pattern, map then aggregate with reduce.

People who care about performance are using loops, not map(). Why are you even testing the slow path?

I think it's a poorly hidden advertisement.

For what? I don't see any products or services being promoted in this article.

I don't trust much at all.

So to confirm, you don't trust blogs where the company is selling a product or service, even if they don't mention it in the article? If so, that would cover a lot of articles shared on this instance.

That's kind of the point. You're not supposed to.

They're farming links so search engines see their domain as more important. That way, their entry will appear higher up on search results against competitors for their paid products.

Well that depends, generators are faster than loops when you're using Bun or Node.

What are your thoughts on this 2023 comparison?
