Performance Benchmark Report: Prisma v4 vs. Prisma v5

Introduction

The performance comparison between Prisma v4 and Prisma v5 involved testing the duration of creating 1000 users and querying all users within a database using each respective version of Prisma. The goal was to assess the efficiency and speed variations between the two versions.

Test Results

Prisma v4

Test Number Creating 1000 Users (ms) Querying All Users (ms)
1 541.89 5.15
2 61.84 8.14
3 60.38 12.15

Prisma v5

Test Number Creating 1000 Users (ms) Querying All Users (ms)
1 279.59 6.55
2 40.55 9.72
3 41.78 12.85

Observations

  1. Prisma v4 exhibited faster user creation times in its second and third tests compared to its initial run, which showed significantly longer duration for user creation. However, querying all users showed a slight increase in time across the tests.

  2. Prisma v5 consistently displayed improved performance in user creation compared to Prisma v4 in most instances, indicating enhancements in the efficiency of this operation. However, the querying duration showed a slight increase compared to the creation time.
