Timed Node.js Compilation

This test profile times how long it takes to build/compile Node.js itself from source. Node.js is a JavaScript run-time built from the Chrome V8 JavaScript engine while itself is written in C/C++.

To run this test with the Phoronix Test Suite, the basic command is: phoronix-test-suite benchmark build-nodejs.

OpenBenchmarking.org metrics for this test profile configuration based on 344 public results since 6 April 2024 with the latest data as of 24 May 2024.

Below is an overview of the generalized performance for components where there is sufficient statistically significant data based upon user-uploaded results. It is important to keep in mind particularly in the Linux/open-source space there can be vastly different OS configurations, with this overview intended to offer just general guidance as to the performance expectations.
