Benchmark

[doomedramen]

This lib is very similar to mine, I have tested the who side by side to see if there is any speed difference. It seems they are near identical in speed (for me ~4 megabytes a second uploaded), in my tests I am uploading over a 10gig network, I tried disabling the server from writing to file on both libraries and found that the speed did not change, my theory is that the client browsers file.slice > file.read* is the bottle neck.

Has anyone else looked into this? Is anyone getting much better than 3-4 MB/s ?

*I use 'readAsBinaryString', this lib uses 'readAsText' and 'readAsArrayBuffer' (I found no real speed difference between the 3 methods)

*My speed calcluation is:

/**

• this get the time since the last push, scales the time and speed to per second values */

      var timeNow = new Date();
      if (File.lastTime) {
          var difference = timeNow.getTime() - File.lastTime.getTime();
          var seconds = Math.floor(difference * 1000);
          var scale = 1 / seconds;
          var scaledSize = CHUNK_SIZE * scale;
          File.speed = scaledSize.toFixed(2) // <-- MB/s
  
  
      }
  

  ... //do slice & read file, etc.

      File.lastTime = timeNow;
