NAME

App::Benchmark::Accessors - Benchmark accessor generators

VERSION

version 1.110100

DESCRIPTION

This distribution runs benchmarks on various accessor generators. The following generators are being benchmarked:

Moose

mutable and immutable

Mouse

mutable and immutable

Class::Accessor

Class::Accessor::Fast

Class::Accessor::Fast::XS

Class::XSAccessor::Compat

Class::Accessor::Complex

Class::Accessor::Constructor

Class::Accessor::Classy

Class::Accessor::Lite

Mojo::Base

Class::MethodMaker

Object::Tiny

Spiffy

Class::Spiffy

accessors

Class::XSAccessor

Class::XSAccessor::Array

Object::Tiny

Rose

Rubyish::Attribute

The benchmarks are being run as part of the test suite; see App::Benchmark. This way you can look at this distribution's CPAN testers page to see the benchmark results on many different platforms and for many different perl versions.

The t/construction.t file benchmarks object creation, t/get.t benchmarks getter methods and t/set.t benchmarks setter methods.

Not every benchmark is run on every module; for example, Object::Tiny doesn't create setter methods, and accessors doesn't generate constructors.

Each benchmark test file takes an optional numeric parameter that is used as the number of iterations.

It's probably a good idea not to read too much into these benchmarks; they could be seen as micro-optimization. However, if you have a complex object hierarchy and create lots of objects and run many many getters/setters on them, they could help to save some time. But be sure to use Devel::NYTProf first to see where your real bottlenecks are.
