Performance

This release makes parsing and queries faster, and makes the parsed tree smaller. The API does not change.

Results on 12 real pages (4.79 MB), with Bun 1.4.4 and Node 26.12.1 on an Apple M1 Max:

Workload Bun Node
parse() 11.8ms → 7.9ms 12.5ms → 11.7ms
parse() + query 18.2ms → 11.8ms 22.3ms → 16.3ms
mutable.parse() 14.0ms → 10.3ms 26.1ms → 13.1ms
mutable parse + stringify 13.7ms → 10.0ms 15.2ms → 13.5ms
mutable parse + edit + stringify 33.4ms → 27.8ms 44.1ms → 35.5ms

The parsed trees of the corpus now hold 4.9 MB of memory on Node, down from 5.5 MB. With @lukeed/html/mutable, they hold 20.9 MB, down from 22.1 MB.

Changes

  • getAttr(), hasAttr(), and selectors read attributes from a flat list. The frozen attributes record is built only when you read it. (41e8b5e)
  • The parser finds the end of a tag with a character loop, not a regex. (f5fc7f7)
  • The tree is stored in typed arrays. (8363b0d)
  • Common tag names are shared strings, so the parser makes no new string for each tag. (b17dbbf, bbe5916)
  • Internal caches are sized to the tree, so the engine keeps them in fast storage. (2e20ce9)
  • Each tag needs one lookup for its parse rules, not up to five. (9cac437)

Notes

  • The bundle is 0.7 kB larger: 5.9 kB gzip for @lukeed/html and 7.1 kB for @lukeed/html/mutable.
  • If you read attributes on every element, the tree holds a little more memory than before, because it keeps the list and the record. getAttr() does not have this cost.
