Grunt vs Wro4j
En el post anterior hice la siguiente afirmación sin dar ningún dato:
He probado algunas otras herramientas que tienen el mismo objetivo, como por ejemplo wro4j, pero grunt es mucho más rápido.
En realidad no había hecho ninguna prueba, fue la sensación que tuve al utilizar las dos herramientas. Alex Objelean, el creador de wro4j, escribió un comentario preguntando si había hecho alguna prueba de rendimiento. Para ser justos me decidí a hacer una comparativa.
Máquina de pruebas
- Intel Core 2 Duo 2,66 GHz
- 4GB DDR3
- OS X Lion 10.7.4
Pruebas
La prueba consistió en compilar :

La diferencia de tiempos es considerable. Creo que la principal diferencia entre las dos herramientas es el motor de javascript que utilizan. Wro4j usa rhino mientras que grunt utiliza v8. En este artículo se realiza una comparativa de rendimiento de los dos motores.
