Scripts and tools to measure performance.

This repo meant to be a sandbox.

The tested dummy algorithm

The measured algorithms are 3 variations on counting the smallest element in a array.

  • C style, count-as-go: O(n)
  • C++ std::min_element then std::count: O(n) + O(n)
  • C++ std::sort then std::upper_bound: O(n log n) + O(n)

Environment

The array contains 10k randomly generated integers [0, 1000].

The machine which generated the results is an Intel NUC 7CJYH.

Catch2's benchmarking tools

Flamegraph

An interactive flamegraph can be generated to visualize perf's measurements, where the callgraph can be traversed.
