# readbuf

[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/crzidea/node-readbuf.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/crzidea/node-readbuf)

[![npm version](https://badge.fury.io/js/readbuf.svg)](https://badge.fury.io/js/readbuf)

Read buffer in a blazing fast way! 7x faster than `Buffer`.

## Install

```js

npm install --save readbuf

```

## Example

All of the standard byte-reading methods of the Buffer interface are implemented and will operate across internal Buffer boundaries transparently.

```js

var readbuf = require('readbuf')

var buffer = new Buffer('abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz')

var reader = readbuf(buffer)

reader.readUInt8(3)

reader.slice(3)

reader.slice(3).readUInt8(0)

```

## Benchmark

```sh

node benchmark.js

```

Results:

```

Buffer#slice() x 5,623,308 ops/sec ±4.29% (81 runs sampled)

BufferReader#slice() x 33,198,783 ops/sec ±2.02% (88 runs sampled)

Fastest is BufferReader#slice()

Buffer#slice().slice() x 3,360,206 ops/sec ±0.66% (89 runs sampled)

BufferReader#slice().slice() x 20,635,719 ops/sec ±2.21% (85 runs sampled)

Fastest is BufferReader#slice().slice()

Buffer#slice().slice().slice() x 2,275,712 ops/sec ±1.00% (87 runs sampled)

BufferReader#slice().slice().slice() x 15,011,949 ops/sec ±1.21% (89 runs sampled)

Fastest is BufferReader#slice().slice().slice()

```
