This is an experimental library. Do not use it in production unless you are prepared to put in time for testing that it does what you need.

The diagram shows constant times for each iteration count. The regex implementation outperforms stdlib's urlparse module by almost 100%. The latter runs at slighty above 6e-4 seconds, with the former at ~3.5e-4 seconds (at my machine).

Memory profiling remains to be done, I guess regex is taking a lot more.

There are almost 100 tests, a good bunch of which need to be reviewed (33 failures). The modules has 34% test coverage.

See uriref.

make test

Coverage report and test results are available in html.

There are tests that show for which sort of URLs uriref is compatible with stdlib urlparse.

The setup should be fixed by splitting up the expected test results to function. Currently there is one set of parameters for all test methods.
