schlauertyp

This is a fork from marcusmichaely/schlauertyp

Unlike the original ruby implementation this version is written in crystal and as such compiles into a binary. This version acts as a server backend capable of rendering plain text, json, xml and html.

A lot of effort has been put into ensuring best possible performance which is -- needless to say -- impeccable for a program this sophisticated. Although the strings used here stored in yaml files for easy editing they are embedded in the binary during compile time for super-fast response times.

Installation

shards build [--release]

Benchmarks

Because why would you just have to take my word for it?

    Content-Type   Req/s  Avg Res T  Variance       Ranking
===========================================================
      text/plain   7.32k (136.55µs) (± 8.23%)       fastest
application/json   7.24k (138.09µs) (± 7.32%)  1.01× slower
 application/xml    7.1k (140.94µs) (± 8.49%)  1.03× slower
       text/html   6.82k (146.55µs) (±10.31%)  1.07× slower

The benchmark was run on a Thinkpad X220 with an Intel Core i7 CPU with 4 hyperthreads and TurboBoost^tm disabled.

Still don't believe me? Run it yourself by starting bin/schlauer_typ and then running bin/benchmark!
