A fast change in how we create and maintain single-page applications (SPAs) means you need a framework (front-end) that can scale alongside your application as well as provide efficiently designed UIs and manage interactions with large amounts of dynamic data. This performance comparison study is structured around using the benchmarking methods from experimental studies to compare React and Angular frameworks. The performance comparison will use performance indicators available for measurement, including load time, time until the application is ready for interaction (TII), efficiency of the DOM manipulation, rendering speed, memory usage, and CPU usage at load. To improve consistency, the same types of applications will be implemented through each framework in a controlled environment (aka benchmarking environment). Prior studies have shown that architectures built using the virtual DOM typically perform better on both creating & deleting operations; whereas, incremental DOM styled frameworks typically perform well under updating states within the UI. The scalability characteristics under increasing workload are also impacted by the architectural complexity of the framework compared to its efficiencies once implemented in a runtime environment. Using the above information, this paper provides the reader with a clearer understanding of performance characteristics and behaviour for applications built on different rendering paradigms. The conclusions drawn can be used as evidence for the decision making of developers & researchers when selecting the best framework to use based upon their application size, amount of interaction within the application, and scalability needs.
