There is a lot +of research about how to do benchmarks carefully and correctly, however +a lot of people lack knowledge in this area as well as basic statistics. +This talk is aimed at sharing my knowledge about benchmarking the PyPy +project but the lessons learned should really apply to any software. + +Audience +-------- + +People interested in benchmarking. People who have performance problems +with their code. + +Objectives +---------- + +Attendees will learn some basic statistics, how to write benchmarks, how +to get reproducible data and how to avoid basic pitfalls with benchmarking. + +Detailed abstract +----------------- + +Benchmarking is hard. This talk is a way to share my knowledge that I +accumulated over the last few years while benchmarking various programs +on top of the PyPy project. It'll include benchmarking general programs, +using PyPy and CPython do get some data and postprocessing data. It'll also +include a brief guide of stuff I use for visualization. + +Outline +------- + +1. Intro, PyPy, background, 5min + +2. Background about benchmarking in general 10min. + +3.
