url-state-machine

In some benchmarks, the built-in Node.js URL module outperforms url-state-machine (e.g., by 85.58% in one test), so it may not be the optimal choice for all parsing scenarios where native performance is adequate.

The library focuses solely on parsing URLs and does not provide built-in methods for URL construction, modification, or serialization, which might require additional utilities for full URL handling.

Test results indicate 1 failed test out of 733 for pathname and search components, meaning it is not 100% spec-compliant, which could affect edge cases in strict standard adherence.
