hz
Measures the number of times a function is executed per second (hz
/hertz
).
- Use
performance.now()
to get the difference in milliseconds before and after the iteration loop to calculate the time elapsed executing the functioniterations
times. - Return the number of cycles per second by converting milliseconds to seconds and dividing it by the time elapsed.
- Omit the second argument,
iterations
, to use the default of 100 iterations.
const hz = (fn, iterations = 100) => {
const before = performance.now();
for (let i = 0; i < iterations; i++) fn();
return (1000 * iterations) / (performance.now() - before);
};
const numbers = Array(10000).fill().map((_, i) => i);
const sumReduce = () => numbers.reduce((acc, n) => acc + n, 0);
const sumForLoop = () => {
let sum = 0;
for (let i = 0; i < numbers.length; i++) sum += numbers[i];
return sum;
};
Math.round(hz(sumReduce)); // 572
Math.round(hz(sumForLoop)); // 4784
