A collection of benchmarked Elixir code idioms comparing semantically equivalent approaches to show which is faster, inspired by fast-ruby. Each idiom includes runnable benchmark code using benchee.

Use cases

• learn which elixir code patterns are faster
• benchmark map lookup vs pattern matching in elixir
• find faster alternatives to string concatenation in elixir
• compare ets vs gen server performance
• optimize slow elixir code
• learn elixir performance idioms

When to choose

• you write Elixir and want to learn performance-oriented idioms with measured evidence
• you want runnable benchmark examples to adapt to your own codebase

When to avoid

• you need a library to add to your project rather than reference material
• you need guaranteed up-to-date benchmarks for recent Elixir/OTP versions
• you work in a language other than Elixir
