IndexedDB performance

Question

Can anyone point me to an article on, or preferably provide some experience of performance of IndexedDB (ideally in Chrome) - what is the fetch, insert and update performanc

Answer 1

Doing some performance comparison between IndexeDB and other client side and server side databases. The performance depends of the browser as Firefox implementation of IndexeDB API is much more ahead than Chrome or IE. Firefox is using SQLlite as a backend database, so IndexedDB is implemented on the top of it. You can find many articles of IndexedDB performance, but mostly reserches and developers are saying that IDB perform faster with SQL as a backend. Comparing to Chrome implementation where IDB is implemented on the top of LevelDB(which is NOSQL) is much more slower comparing to Firefox. On the another end WEBSQL(depreciated) is performing fast in Chrome, in Firefox not supported anymore.

I have published a paper with some IndexedDB performance results. https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Stefan_Kimak/publication/281065948_Performance_Testing_and_Comparison_of_Client_Side_Databases_Versus_Server_Side/links/55d3465c08ae0a3417226302/Performance-Testing-and-Comparison-of-Client-Side-Databases-Versus-Server-Side.pdf
