This is some benchmarking to test the performance of the different runtimes in Cfx

It should be noted that C# could not finish the string concatenation test because of it frequently trying to do stop-the-world garbage collection because every concatenation would create a new string object.

All of these tests were done with 1,000,000 iterations

Client	Lua OAL	Lua	JS	C# rt2
Native Execution	198.71ms	637.99ms	697.24	86.58ms
Concatenation	16.8s	16.8s	180.97ms	DNF
2D Distance	180.99ms	178.83ms	33.23ms	4.16ms
3D Distance	184.48ms	183.60ms	33.34ms	6.71ms

All of these tests were done with 10,000 iterations

Client	Lua OAL	Lua	JS	C# rt2
Native Execution	2.40ms	6.19ms	48.15ms	1.59ms
Concatenation	1.80ms	1.89ms	4.72ms	40.83ms
2D Distance	1.89ms	2.43ms	15.99ms	0.13ms
3D Distance	1.91ms	1.86ms	15.87ms	90µs

All of these tests were done with 1,000,000 iterations with the optimized way to concatenate a large amount of strings in the specific runtime.

For C# this would be using StringBuilder, in Lua this would be adding all the string to a table and using table.concat

JS does not have an equivelent optimization (hence why its the slowest here)

Client	Lua OAL	Lua	JS	C# rt2
Concatenation	61.52ms	61.52ms	180.97ms	4.71ms

All of these tests were done with 10,000 iterations with the optimized way to concatenate a large amount of strings in the specific runtime.

Client	Lua OAL	Lua	JS	C# rt2
Concatenation	0.81ms	0.81ms	5.34ms	0.42ms

NOTE: These tests were done on RedM, in order to get OAL to work on RedM I had to do a custom build since it looks to have been forgotten about, this shouldn't impact the tests.

The basic way these benchmarks where done was:

1. Put profiler record 500 in the client console
2. ensure [resource-name]
3. Wait for the the profiler to finish
4. profiler view
5. Results!
