DOOMFIRE
Test your TTY's might!
The doom-fire algo can push upwards of 180k a frame - results may vary! It is, to my surprise, a nice TTY stress test.
As a comparable, this is the younger sibling of a node variant ( https://github.com/const-void/DOOM-fire-node ).
INSTALL
Tested on OX Monterey / M1 w/zig 0.9...
EDIT: Now tested on Artix Linux - links against libc to get the size of the TTY.
This means that the program does rely on libc, this shouldn't be a problem.
$ git clone https://github.com/const-void/DOOM-fire-zig/
$ cd DOOM-fire-zig
$ zig build run
...
Results
- iTerm.app - ok
- kitty.app - great
- Terminal.app - poor -- seems to drop framerates
- VS Code - great
- Alacritty (artix linux) - great
