```
## Performance
This is how `entities` compares to other libraries on a very basic benchmark (see `scripts/benchmark.ts`, for 10,000,000 iterations):
| Library | `decode` performance | `encode` performance |
| -------------- | -------------------- | -------------------- |
| entities | 10.809s | 17.683s |
| html-entities | 14.029s | 22.670s |
