There is a simple benchmark included comparing raw read/write performance of this library (float), float's fallback for old browsers, the ieee754 module and node's buffer. On an i7-2600k running node 6.9.1 it yields:
benchmarking writeFloat performance ...
float x 42,741,625 ops/sec ±1.75% (81 runs sampled)
float (fallback) x 11,272,532 ops/sec ±1.12% (85 runs sampled)
