Description: GoFasterSQL is a tool designed to enhance the efficiency and simplicity of scanning SQL rows into structures.
Information:
The flaw in the native library scanning process is its repetitive and time-consuming type determination for each row scan. It must match each field’s type with its native counterpart before converting the data string (byte array). Furthermore, the requirement to specify each individual field for scanning is tedious.
GoFasterSQL instead precalculates string-to-type conversions for each field, utilizing pointers to dedicated conversion functions. This approach eliminates the need for type lookups during scanning, vastly improving performance. The library offers a 2 to 2.5 times speed increase compared to native scan methods (5*+ vs sqlx), a boost that varies with the number of items in each scan. Moreover, its automatic structure determination feature is a significant time-saver during coding.
