Stupid Fast Scoop Utils

Super fast replacements and additions to scoop commands written in Rust

Installation

scoop bucket add extras

scoop install sfsu

Hook

You may set up the hooks to use the scoop commands normally

Add the following to your Powershell profile

Invoke-Expression (&sfsu hook)

You can also optionally disable certain hooks via the --disable <COMMAND> flag

Invoke-Expression (&sfsu hook --disable list)

Benchmarks ¹

On average, sfsu search is ~500 times faster than regular scoop search and ~6.5 times faster than scoop-search.

That takes you from about 25 seconds on scoop search down to 50 milliseconds with sfsu search

sfsu list is ~30 times faster than scoop list

Done on a AMD Ryzen 7 2700X @ 4.3GHz with 16GB of RAM and 17 scoop buckets listed below

Long Term Goals

Currently I am considering creating an entire Scoop alternative that has 100% interoperability with existing Scoop buckets, but way way way faster than Scoop.

In the meantime I will continue working on this independently of Scoop as "seperate" tools that work without an entire package manager.

Footnotes

1. These benchmarks are done after warmups. You will likely see far greater improvements when run on "cold" systems. Results will also differ depending on search request and the number of results, as well as installed buckets, and a few other factors ↩
