promise comparisons (v18)

Revision 18 of this benchmark created by Meryn Stol on

Description

This is a comparison of different promise libraries, performing the most basic tasks of creating a promise, adding a then handler and then resolving the promise.

Removed SLOW laissez-faire Removed avow which has bad code for checking module

Resolve immediately, without any kind of timeout or delay.
