Benchmarks

CPU Benchmarks

• fibonacci - Recursive fib(40) - tests raw CPU computation
• prime-sieve - Sieve of Eratosthenes (primes < 1M)
• sha256 - SHA256 hashing of 1KB string (pure JS)
• json-parse - JSON parse/stringify round-trip
• bigint-ops - BigInt arithmetic (factorial, power, GCD)

Memory Benchmarks

• array-ops - Create 100K elements, map/filter/reduce
• object-create - 100K object allocations with nested properties
• string-ops - String concatenation, indexOf, split/join

Database Benchmarks

• mysql-query - Simple SELECT 1+1 latency
• mysql-pool - Connection pool getConnection/release cycle
• mysql-prepared - Parameterized query with prepared statements

HTTP Benchmarks

• fetch-single - Single HTTP request latency
• fetch-concurrent - 10 parallel HTTP requests
