The Benchmark currently performs the following four tasks:
- Generate 500,000 random gene sequences with a length of 100 letters
- Transcribes the DNA to the resulting proteins and calculates the ratio of polar to nonpolar and basic to acidic proteins
- Separately sort the two resulting list of ratios by their values
- Calculates Q1, Median, Q3 and calculate average and standard deviation for those lists
The Benchmark was implemented in the following languages/platforms:
- C → clang 6.0.1
- C.Wasm → emcc 1.38.6
- JavaScript → TypeScript 3.0.3
- DotNet.Console → .NET Core 2.1.300
- DotNet.Interpreter → Mono 5.14.0
- DotNet.Wasm → mono-wasm commit c211324 ($WASM_SDK variable needs to be set)
The .NET Projects where build with Release configuration and the C Projects with -O3 optimizations.
The following results were recorded on a MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Late 2013) and where applicable Firefox 62.0 was used as the browser.
