MicroBenchmark is a library to measure the performance of code fragments. The comparison of these kind of measurements between different implementations and/or environments is usually called micro benchmark, hence the library name.
MicroBenchmark can be used with the following languages:
The main unit of MicroBenchmark framework is the test case. A test case encapsulates a code fragment whose performance will be measured. One or more test cases compose a suite, which is responsible for their execution lifecycle. The acquired performance measurements are aggregated into a report that can be examined and printed.
Note that MicroBenchmark is on an early stage of development:
MicroBenchmark is Free Software distributed under the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public License, Version 3 or later.
No source code releases are available for MicroBenchmark yet.
MicroBenchmark comes with a texinfo manual, try info
mbenchmark after installing it. The manual is also
available with HTML format as
a single web page or
as multiple web nodes.
MicroBenchmark uses git for its source code development.
You can browse its repository or clone it with the following command:
git clone https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/mbenchmark.git
