We maintain a set of automated benchmarks against Yarn 1/2+ (PnP and node_modules tracked separately), pnpm, and npm: https://yarnpkg.com/benchmarks

The fastest are usually either Yarn PnP or pnpm. Note however that regardless of the package managers it's quite clear that performances are reaching a plateau in the common cases. I personally believe a better thing to consider are feature set, stability, documentation, and general codebase health (since it impacts how fast features and bugfixes ship, and how dangerous upgrades may be). But those are quite a bit harder to measure, of course!

Good benchmarks! Looks like pnpn is still quite a bit faster in most cases though. It does look like performance has reached a plateau, but a different plateau for different tools so surely it still makes sense to decide based on performance?

pnpm is still around, cool!

I didn't look into it since Yarn was released.
