Benchmarks

Example sites for benchmarking gatsby.

Interface

The standard interface for running a benchmark is:

cd {benchmark directory}
export NUM_PAGES={n}
npm install
npm run build / gatsby build

If a specific benchmark needs to perform some code generation (e.g. markdown_id), that generation shall happen in a postinstall script. Any postinstall script must ensure that previous benchmark runs do not interfere with the current run.

For example:

"postinstall": "del-cli ./generated && gatsby clean && npm run generate"
