node-fast-functionals

Super quick collection processing with functional programming.

Goal

Processing data with Array's map reduce filter and other high order functions is really handy, but super slow! This project aims at optimising that by introducing a hack - it injects your function bodies into a procedural loop and runs eval on it.

Installation

Node >=8.9.0 is required.

npm install --save fast-functionals

To perform tests use:

cd node_modules/fast-functionals
npm i
npm t

This project also has a benchmark that you can run yourself:

cd node_modules/fast-functionals
npm i
npm run benchmark

Usage

Beware this project is still in development. There may be serious bugs or performance issues over time.
