json-schema-benchmark (draft7)
Performance benchmark for Node.js JSON-schema validators.
[2022/04/23] The purpose of this fork is just to have an updated benchmark result for the current state of supported draft features and their performance. I have no intention on maintaining this repository.
Changes made:
- updated ajv setup and integrated ajv formats plugin
- changed default draft to draft 07
- updated benchmark results
[2022/11/13] updated libraries and rerun benchmark [2024/04/05] updated libraries and rerun benchmark
Also tests against official JSON-schema test suite, version draft7. and checks for validators that cause side-effects on schema or data. The top 6 validators that fail the least tests are included in the benchmark.

(validators not in the results above where excluded because of failing tests - see below for details)
@exodus/schemasafe
is currently the fastest JSON-schema validator out there.
Test failure summary
This test suite uses the official JSON-schema test suite, version draft7.
If a validator does not pass a test in the official test suite, it will show up in these results.
Some validators have deliberately chosen not to support parts of the spec. Go to the homepage of the validator to learn if that is the case for these tests.
Side-effects summary
Number of tests that caused side-effects. The schema or data was altered by the validator.
Validator | Number of side-effects (BAD) |
---|---|
json-model | 981 |
revalidator | 983 |
Validators not in the list have no side-effects on data or schemas.
Tests for other JSON-schema versions
Features of validators
Note that these benchmarks and tests do not take into account other more advanced features of the validators. I encourage you to take a look at each validator if you are looking for special features.
Benchmarks by validator authors and others
Several of the validators have build benchmarks themselves. They are more detailed then the benchmarks provided above.
There is also a benchmark suite by cosmicrealms.
