Documentation
initializeTime :: IO () #
Set up time measurement.
Return the current wallclock time, in seconds since some arbitrary time.
You must call initializeTime
once before calling this function!
getCPUTime :: IO Double #
Return the amount of elapsed CPU time, combining user and kernel (system) time into a single measure.
getGCStats :: IO (Maybe GCStats) #
Try to get GC statistics, bearing in mind that the GHC runtime
will throw an exception if statistics collection was not enabled
using "+RTS -T
".
Convert a number of seconds to a string. The string will consist of four decimal places, followed by a short description of the time units.
Arguments
:: Benchmarkable | Operation to benchmark. |
-> Int64 | Number of iterations. |
-> IO (Measured, Double) |
Measure the execution of a benchmark a given number of times.
Arguments
:: Benchmarkable | |
-> Double | Lower bound on how long the benchmarking process should take. In practice, this time limit may be exceeded in order to generate enough data to perform meaningful statistical analyses. |
-> IO (Vector Measured, Double) |
Run a single benchmark, and return measurements collected while executing it, along with the amount of time the measurement process took.
Arguments
:: Maybe GCStats | Statistics gathered at the end of a run. |
-> Maybe GCStats | Statistics gathered at the beginning of a run. |
-> Measured | Value to "modify". |
-> Measured |
Apply the difference between two sets of GC statistics to a measurement.
The amount of time a benchmark must run for in order for us to have some trust in the raw measurement.
We set this threshold so that we can generate enough data to later perform meaningful statistical analyses.
The threshold is 30 milliseconds. One use of runBenchmark
must
accumulate more than 300 milliseconds of total measurements above
this threshold before it will finish.
