Velocicode 0.8.0

A CLI tool for programming language speed benchmarks

Velocicode 🚀

Velocicode is a high-performance command-line tool for benchmarking programming language speeds. It allows you to run standard algorithms across multiple languages and compare their execution time with professional, interactive reports.

Features ✨

• Multi-Language Support: Benchmarks Python, C++, Rust, Go, JavaScript (Node.js), Java, and C# (.NET).
• Standard Algorithms:
  • fibonacci (Recursion intensity)
  • matrix_mul (Floating point & Cache)
  • quicksort (Memory & Sorting)
  • primes (Sieve of Eratosthenes)
  • New in v0.8.0:
    • string_concat (String Optimization) 🧵
    • json_parse (Data Processing) 📄
    • regex_redact (Text Processing) 🔍
• Smart Execution:
  • System Info: Auto-detects your CPU, RAM, and OS.
  • Memory Benchmarking (New): Tracks Peak RAM usage for every run. 🧠
  • Dependency Check: Automatically checks for compilers and skips missing languages.
• Premium UI:
  • Beautiful terminal output using the Rich library.
  • Rankings with Medals (🥇 🥈 🥉).
  • Relative Speed comparisons (e.g., 1.00x vs 45.9x).
• Data Export:
  • JSON: Raw data export for analysis.
  • HTML: Interactive reports with Charts for presentations.

Installation

pip install velocicode

To install compilers for all supported languages (Python, C++, Rust, Go, Node.js, Java, .NET), run:

velocicode deps

This will print the exact install command for your OS (Ubuntu, Fedora, macOS, Windows).

Usage

1. Run Benchmarks

Run all benchmarks with default settings:

velocicode run

The tool will display your system information and check if you have the necessary compilers. If some are missing, it will ask if you want to proceed with the available ones.

Filter by specific algorithm or language:

# Run only Matrix Multiplication in Rust and Go
velocicode run --filter-algo matrix_mul --filter-lang rust,go

2. Generate Reports 📊

Export results to JSON or generate a visual HTML report:

velocicode run --html report.html --json results.json

Open report.html in your browser to see interactive bar charts!

3. Check Compilers

Velocicode relies on system compilers. Check what you have installed:

velocicode check

Requirements

[!IMPORTANT] This tool requires external compilers. pip installs the runner, but you need the languages installed:

• Python 3.7+
• g++ (for C++)
• rustc (for Rust)
• go (for Go)
• node (for JavaScript)
• javac (for Java - JDK required, e.g. java-latest-openjdk-devel)
• dotnet (for C#)
