9 // This file mainly defines a `Benchmark` function.
11 // The benchmarking process is as follows:
12 // - We start by measuring the time it takes to run the function
13 // `InitialIterations` times. This is called a Sample. From this we can derive
14 // the time it took to run a single iteration.
16 // - We repeat the previous step with a greater number of iterations to lower
17 // the impact of the measurement. We can derive a more precise estimation of the
18 // runtime for a single iteration.
20 // - Each sample gives a more accurate estimation of the runtime for a single
21 // iteration but also takes more time to run. We stop the process when:
22 // * The measure stabilize under a certain precision (Epsilon),
23 // * The overall benchmarking time is greater than MaxDuration,
24 // * The overall sample count is greater than MaxSamples,
25 // * The last sample used more than MaxIterations iterations.
27 // - We also makes sure that the benchmark doesn't run for a too short period of
28 // time by defining MinDuration and MinSamples.
