So, I'm trying to use streams more and better understand how to use them properly.
There was this little contest over at Treehouse to write an app that would count the words in a text file after being filtered from a certain set of words in another file. Myself and one other person chose to write our apps in node. I wrote mine using streams and they wrote theirs without. I have used the time command to compare the two. Mine is consistently about 5 times slower. Link to mine: https://gist.github.com/DanSchmidt/10000777 Link to their's: https://gist.github.com/pleary/9967501#file-waldo-js I could understand if some of my transform and filtering logic was perhaps less performant than another's, but 5 times slower seems to suggest I'm probably doing something wrong with the streams. Any help would be appreciated, thanks. -- -- Job Board: http://jobs.nodejs.org/ Posting guidelines: https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Mailing-List-Posting-Guidelines You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "nodejs" group.
