Benchmarks

The copied benchmark narrative comes from the Aube fork baseline. SCPM has not yet published independent benchmark runs after the rename.

Imported baseline

Aube measures end-to-end installs against a medium-sized real-world fixture of about 1,400 packages using hyperfine. The main scenario compares a fresh install with a warm package store and no node_modules directory.

The benchmark advantage comes from:

• a global content-addressable store,
• a shared global virtual store for local installs,
• an install-state check that skips repeat install work before script runs,
• a strict isolated linker rather than a fully copied dependency tree.

Reproduce locally

The upstream benchmark scripts are cloned under cli/benchmarks/:

cd cli
mise run bench:bump

Commit refreshed benchmark data only after the SCPM fork has its release and analysis behavior wired in, so the numbers reflect the product users will actually run.
