@filipeforattini Love the batteries‑included approach. How do you see Recker competing with minimal clients in performance benchmarks?
Hey @masump — great question! Back when I started building Recker, the goal was simple: get undici-level performance without forcing developers to assemble a dozen plugins just to reach production quality. In 2026, with systems becoming more distributed, API budgets shrinking, and multi-protocol integrations becoming the norm, that goal matters even more.
The good news: Recker holds up extremely well against minimal clients. In the benchmarks I published (https://forattini-dev.github.io/recker/#/benchmarks), Recker is faster than axios, got, ky and others, and stays very close to undici’s raw engine — even with 30+ built-in features.
What really makes a difference today is what minimal clients don’t cover: dedup, caching, client pooling, backpressure, retries with real jitter, cross-protocol consistency. In modern workloads — parallel traffic, multi-domain fan-out, duplicate request storms — these features make Recker 2–3× more efficient than minimal clients.
