Cold Starts Benchmarks

Cold start metrics has been collected using the http server.

These metrics are also indicative of how well the serverless version performs in this regard, this is because both @mionkit/http an @mionkit/aws are simple wrappers around @mionkit/router which contains all the logic.

• These metrics show the start time when loading 1 route and then increasing the number or routes loaded until 5,000 routes.
• The startup time is the time it takes create the routes + initialize the server.
• The listen time is the time it takes to add all the routes to the server and for the server to be ready listening for requests.

We are comparing mion against fastify as we consider it to be the gold standard in node frameworks and against deepkit as we use some of their libraries and has similar functionalities (validation and serialization).
