Baseline benchmark that runs on every PR and on master, comments the delta on the PR, and stores history in the Actions cache. No library source changes.

Cases

  • sortHeaders chrome / firefox / safari: 60000 calls each on a fixed, realistic HTTP/1.1 header set per browser (benchmark/fixtures/headers.json, 16-17 headers in alphabetical order plus one unknown X-Request-Id, so both the ordered and the remainder loops run). Sorting runs once per outgoing request. Asserts the output key order matches src/headers-order.json for that browser.
  • getBrowser top 100 user agents: 50000 passes over 100 real UAs (benchmark/fixtures/user-agents.json, same list as the top-user-agents devDependency). Asserts 77 chrome / 4 firefox / 19 safari per pass.
  • tls options top 100 user agents: 20000 passes of tls(ua), the options builder the got hook calls on every request. Asserts every result carries ciphers and signatureAlgorithms, and exactly the 77 chrome UAs get minVersion: 'TLSv1'.

Each case: one warmup, 7 runs, median wall ms with min-max range. A wrong result marks the run as an error and sets exit code 1, so a broken function cannot look fast.

Removed

  • benchmark/sort-headers.mjs: fetched https://vercel.com at runtime (network, non-deterministic input) and compared two inline copies of sortHeaders with tinybench, not the shipped function.
  • benchmark/package.json: only existed to install tinybench for that script. No pnpm-workspace.yaml references it.

The workflow uses the zero-install variant: the bench needs no dependencies, and skipping install also skips the postinstall that downloads src/headers-order.json, which would let upstream data drift move the numbers.

Local baseline

Node v24.16.0, arm64 (Apple Silicon), 3 runs:

case run 1 run 2 run 3
sortHeaders chrome 91.7 ms 89.1 ms 90.8 ms
sortHeaders firefox 78.4 ms 80.8 ms 80.4 ms
sortHeaders safari 65.2 ms 65.8 ms 65.6 ms
getBrowser top 100 user agents 158.3 ms 161.0 ms 156.5 ms
tls options top 100 user agents 104.1 ms 104.8 ms 103.6 ms

Testing

  • node benchmark/index.js 3 times, spread under 3% per case.
  • Sabotage run (identity instead of sortHeaders, wrong browser counts, wrong chrome minVersion): every case reports errors 7, value NaN, exit code 1.
  • npm run lint passes.
  • npm test: ava fails with TypeError: test is not a function in all 4 test files. Same failure on untouched master (ava@latest resolves to 8.1.2), so it is pre-existing and not addressed here.
  • Workflow YAML parses (ruby -ryaml). It is the reference workflow with only name: changed and the pnpm setup/install steps dropped.

CI baseline (first benchmark run, ubuntu-latest, lts/*)

case median range
sortHeaders chrome 190.2 ms 188.9-197.3
sortHeaders firefox 170.3 ms 166.9-174.1
sortHeaders safari 145.6 ms 142.5-151.4
getBrowser top 100 user agents 291.9 ms 291.0-308.5
tls options top 100 user agents 205.8 ms 203.9-209.3

The test check fails with the same TypeError: test is not a function as on master. It is unrelated to this PR.

Note

Low Risk
CI and dev tooling only; no changes to library runtime behavior beyond test import style.

Overview
Adds continuous benchmarking for the shipped sortHeaders, getBrowser, and tls() APIs, wired into CI so PRs get performance comments and master keeps historical baselines in the Actions cache.

The new zero-dependency runner (benchmark/index.js) uses fixed fixtures (browser header sets and 100 real user agents), runs each case with warmup plus seven timed iterations, asserts correctness (header order, browser counts, TLS option shape), and writes benchmark-output.json for benchmark-action/github-action-benchmark. A benchmark workflow runs on PRs and master pushes without npm install so postinstall cannot drift header-order data. Removed the old tinybench script that hit the network and compared inline sortHeaders variants.

Also updates test files to require('ava').default for AVA 8 compatibility, and ignores local benchmark artifacts in .gitignore.

Cases:
- sortHeaders chrome/firefox/safari: 60000 calls each on a fixed,
  realistic 16-17 header set (benchmark/fixtures/headers.json), asserting
  the output key order
- getBrowser top 100 user agents: 50000 passes over a fixed UA list,
  asserting 77 chrome / 4 firefox / 19 safari per pass
- tls options top 100 user agents: 20000 passes of tls(ua), asserting every
  result carries ciphers and signature algorithms

Removes benchmark/sort-headers.mjs (fetched vercel.com at runtime and
compared two inline copies of sortHeaders) and benchmark/package.json,
which only existed to install tinybench for it.

Walkthrough

The pull request adds repeatable benchmarks for header sorting, browser detection, and TLS-option generation. It adds a GitHub Actions workflow to run the benchmarks and process their results. It removes the previous standalone header-sorting benchmark.

Changes: Benchmarking

Layer / File(s) Summary
Benchmark inputs and cases
benchmark/fixtures/*, benchmark/index.js
Fixtures cover request headers and user agents. The runner defines cases for header sorting, browser detection, and TLS-option generation, with expected-output checks.
Benchmark execution and output
benchmark/index.js, package.json, .gitignore, benchmark/package.json, benchmark/sort-headers.mjs
The runner takes seven timed samples per case, writes results to benchmark-output.json, and exits with status 1 when checks fail or reported timings are non-finite. The package script invokes the runner. The former benchmark script and manifest are removed, and benchmark output and cache paths are ignored.
Continuous benchmark workflow
.github/workflows/benchmark.yml
The workflow runs on pushes to master and pull requests. It restores benchmark data, runs the benchmark script, processes results except for fork pull requests, and saves data on pushes to master.

Priority: Low

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

The benchmark workflow runs, but its comparison comment lands on the commit instead of the PR conversation. Its token scopes are also broader than needed. Neither affects the library, so both can be fixed with small workflow edits before or shortly after merge.
