So right now there's a somewhat inconsistent mess of the benchmarking code and options sometimes calling benchmarked functions 'functions', sometimes calling them 'routines'. Name them 'functions' consistently.

DESCRIPTION
|
|
-----------
|
|
This 'perf bench' command is a general framework for benchmark suites.
|
|
|
|
COMMON OPTIONS
|
|
--------------
|
|
-r::
|
|
--repeat=::
|
|
Specify amount of times to repeat the run (default 10).
|
|
|
|
-f::
|
|
--format=::
|
|
Specify format style.
|
|
Current available format styles are:
|
|
|
|
'default'::
|
|
Default style. This is mainly for human reading.
|
|
---------------------
|
|
% perf bench sched pipe # with no style specified
|
|
(executing 1000000 pipe operations between two tasks)
|
|
Total time:5.855 sec
|
|
5.855061 usecs/op
|
|
170792 ops/sec
|
|
---------------------
|
|
|
|
'simple'::
|
|
This simple style is friendly for automated
