Routerify-lite is a simplified but faster version of Routerify.
It only provides the below functions:
- path matching (including
:paramsegment captures)
The path matching could be done by RegexSet or HashMap.
It would use RegexSet if the path contains * or :param. Otherwise, HashMap would be used.
- error handling
The error handler would translate the request into a response in case of an error from the route handler.

Routerify is an excellent lib! But sometimes it performs not so well. So I rewrite some code paths to improve performance. If you need the full functions, you must use Routerify.
Warp is fast. But due to its linear scan path matching, it would be as slow as the number of API combination increase. However, Routerify uses RegexSet, which could match the URI path towards the pattern list in one scan.
For example, I add 50 random URIs to match, then routerify-lite is better than warp.

Routerify-lite uses HashMap; 50 URI patterns.

You could see that both HashMap and RegexSet are better than linear scan.
