More reliable benchmarking with the least amount of thinking


Unspecified

This module attempts to implement reasonably robust benchmarking with little extra effort and expertise required from the user. That is to say, benchmarking using this module is likely an improvement over

time some-command --to --benchmark

or

use Benchmark qw/timethis/; timethis(1000, 'system("some-command", ...)');

The module currently works similar to the former command line, except (in layman terms) it will run the command many times, estimate the uncertainty of the result and keep iterating until a certain user-defined precision has been reached. Then, it calculates the resulting uncertainty and goes through some pain to discard bad runs and subtract overhead from the timings. The reported timing includes an uncertainty, so that multiple benchmarks can more easily be compared.

Please note that 'Dumbbench' works entirely with wallclock time as reported by 'Time::HiRes'' 'time()' function.
