I think there’s three key things going on here:
1. JSC rather than V8
2. Built in APIs. A lot of nodes APIs are implemented in JS and for this reason (or simply because they’re not well optimised), they run more slowly than Bun’s implementation.
3. Bun also has a highly optimised built in test runner
