# lolbench

CI Status: [![CircleCI](https://circleci.com/gh/anp/lolbench/tree/master.svg?style=shield)](https://circleci.com/gh/anp/workflows/lolbench)

This project is an effort to reproducibly benchmark "in the wild" Rust code against newer compiler versions to detect performance regressions. The data is currently published to [https://lolbench.rs](https://lolbench.rs).

## Adding Benchmarks

Want to contribute and are looking for the [list of benchmarks we'd like help adding](https://github.com/anp/lolbench/issues/1)?

## Getting Started

### Dependencies

- rustup
- clang (Linux only)

### Building & Running

```
$ git submodule update --init
$ cargo test-core
```

### Useful cargo subcommand aliases

- `cargo build-website` runs the website generator using the provided data directory. Pass the `--help` flag to see what's required.
- `cargo fmt-core` formats only those crates which should be rustfmt'd -- notably our fork of criterion isn't rustfmt-friendly right now. Useful for `cargo watch -x fmt-core`.
- `cargo test-core` runs the tests for every non-benchmark crate except for criterion. At writing, that's `lolbench`, `lolbench_support`, `lolbench_extractor`, and `marky_mark`.
- `cargo new-bench-crate` runs a lolbench command to create a new benchmark crate in the benches directory.
- `cargo build-all [--release]` builds a binary for every benchmark function. _caution: this will generate dozens of gigabytes of data in your target directory_.
- `cargo test-all` runs the test for every benchmark function, which consists of warming it up and running through a couple of iterations. _caution: this will generate dozens of gigabytes of data in your target directory_.
