New submission from Eric Kow <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: It would be really useful to have a quick and dirty benchmarking script that we can either distribute with or alongside darcs
The script would just encode some current darcs benchmarking practices: namely, getting a repository, obliterating a 1000 patches and pulling them back. Having it do the best of N trials is probably a good idea too. Automatically summarising the results (% improvement) would be nice too. Perhaps a good way to do it is to have it be parameterisable with two directories (with darcs built in both) and a repository. To avoid people having to choose a repository, we could also distribute the GHC one as the prototypical large-ish repository and hopefully set our sights higher one day. Also, I think it's more important for us to have a basic version of this script now, than a fancy one later :-) ---------- messages: 3157 nosy: beschmi, droundy, kowey, tommy priority: wishlist status: unread title: automated benchmarking and comparison __________________________________ Darcs bug tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.darcs.net/issue647> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ darcs-devel mailing list darcs-devel@darcs.net http://lists.osuosl.org/mailman/listinfo/darcs-devel
