dgram: restore buffer optimization in fixBufferList #59934

ri7116 · 2025-09-19T17:46:10Z

Restore the Buffer.isBuffer() check to avoid unnecessary Buffer.from() calls when the input is already a Buffer.
This improves performance buffer-heavy UDP operations.

Includes benchmark test for fixBufferList function to verify the performance improvements across different
data types and chunk sizes.

Here are my local test results. As I know, Buffer is the most commonly used type for UDP.

This shouldn't be called "fixbufferlist", but something lessspecific

Thanks for the feedback! Renamed to send-types.js

Restore the Buffer.isBuffer() check to avoid unnecessary Buffer.from() calls when the input is already a Buffer. This improves performance by 30-50% for buffer-heavy UDP operations. Includes benchmark test for fixBufferList function to verify the performance improvements across different data types and chunk sizes.
