Do we need to run benchmarks for changes like this?

Do we need to run benchmarks for changes like this?

It seems there is no benchmark for https, how can we move this forward?

[Trott]

I guess the options are: Don't worry about it (especially if none of this code is in a hot path?), or try to write a benchmark (maybe based on existing http benchmarks). @nodejs/http @nodejs/benchmarking @mscdex

@Trott #36612 should add a basic benchmark for https server. Once it lands, the benchmark may be run with these changes (yet, I don't think we'll see any noticeable regression).

That's confirmed by the above benchmark.

Be aware that when doing many comparisons the risk of a false-positive
result increases. In this case there are 48 comparisons, you can thus
expect the following amount of false-positive results:
  2.40 false positives, when considering a   5% risk acceptance (*, **, ***),
  0.48 false positives, when considering a   1% risk acceptance (**, ***),
  0.05 false positives, when considering a 0.1% risk acceptance (***)
