hyperfine — A benchmarking tool. More information: <https://manned.org/hyperfine>.

Run a basic benchmark, performing at least 10 runs:

hyperfine '{{make}}'

Run a comparative benchmark:

hyperfine '{{make target1}}' '{{make target2}}'

Change minimum number of benchmarking runs:

hyperfine {{[-m|--min-runs]}} {{7}} '{{make}}'

Perform benchmark with warmup:

hyperfine {{[-w|--warmup]}} {{5}} '{{make}}'

Run a command before each benchmark run (to clear caches, etc.):

hyperfine {{[-p|--prepare]}} '{{make clean}}' '{{make}}'

Run a benchmark where a single parameter changes for each run:

hyperfine {{[-p|--prepare]}} '{{make clean}}' {{[-P|--parameter-scan]}} {{num_threads}} {{1}} {{10}} '{{make --jobs {num_threads}}}'

Run a basic benchmark, performing at least 10 runs
