Closestmatch Versions Save

Golang library for fuzzy matching within a set of strings :page_with_curl:

v2.1.0

7 years ago

Improvements:

  • Matching is 2-6x faster (6x faster for multi-core computers) than v1.0
  • Saving is 4-5x faster than v1.0 and loading is 1-2x faster than v1.0

The speed improvements are due to uses a different precomputation scheme which increases the size of the on-disk database by 1-3x versus than v1.0.

The breaking change here is that the files are saved as gob files and not JSON anymore, so that you must delete your old cache files.
