Bento

Bento is a new Bencoding library for Elixir focusing on wicked-fast speed without sacrificing simplicity, completeness, or correctness.

It takes inspiration from Poison, a pure-Elixir JSON library, and uses several of the techniques found there:

• Extensive sub-binary matching
• A hand-rolled parser using several techniques known to benefit HiPE for native compilation
• IO list encoding
• Single-pass decoding

Preliminary benchmarking has put Bento's performance as nearly always faster than existing Elixir libraries.
