Description:
Build a performance benchmarking script in JavaScript to measure the encryption speed of Caesar vs Vigenère ciphers using the performance.now() API. This will help contributors analyze algorithm efficiency.

Expected Tasks:

  • In the js-ciphers/ folder, create a new script benchmark.js
  • Import or include both Caesar and Vigenère functions
  • Measure execution time for:
    • Short input (e.g., 50 characters)
    • Medium input (e.g., 500 characters)
    • Large input (e.g., 5000 characters)
  • Log results to the console or save in a benchmark_results.json file
  • Add a section to README.md under “Benchmarks” describing the setup

Stretch Tasks:

  • Visualize results with a basic HTML + chart (e.g., using Chart.js)
  • Add an average of 10 trials per test case for better accuracy
