Lightning Fast Performance
Vibe-Guard is engineered for speed, designed to scan large codebases in seconds, not minutes. Zero dependencies, optimized patterns, and efficient processing make it the fastest security scanner available.
Detailed Performance Benchmarks
Comprehensive performance testing across different file sizes and project types.
Startup Performance
Near-instant startup with zero dependency resolution delays.
Why it's fast: Zero runtime dependencies, pre-compiled patterns, optimized binary.
Small File Scanning
Ultra-fast scanning for individual files under 1KB.
Why it's fast: Optimized regex patterns, smart file filtering, efficient memory usage.
Large File Scanning
Efficient handling of large code files (50KB+).
Why it's fast: Chunked processing, memory-efficient algorithms, optimized I/O.
Memory Efficiency
Low memory footprint for large projects.
Why it's efficient: Stream processing, garbage collection optimization, minimal object allocation.
Directory Scanning
Fast scanning of entire project directories.
Why it's fast: Smart file discovery, parallel processing, efficient file system operations.
Real-world Projects
Tested on various project sizes and types.
