Benchmarks

The library is fast to load on an SSD. You can run the benchmarks by running bin/benchmark

                        user     system      total        real
Cosing.load         0.676430   0.011551   0.687981 (  0.688974)
Cosing::Annex.load  0.065957   0.001479   0.067436 (  0.067588)

The above benchmark was run on an M3 Pro Macbook.

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and the created tag, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
