I've been giving some thought to how we can do this in an automated way.
If anyone has a better way please mention it...
So far what I'm thinking is to leverage cppunit to building
benchmark-units which output some stats about how long it took to run
some operation/function N times.
Starting with a basic one to be designed, which can be used as a
baseline for the CPU/machine doing the run.
The scope of these micro operations would be individual function/method
call sequences with no async sub-steps. Such as measuring and ranking
the raw speed of the fast ACL types, clientDB lookups, memPool
allocate/free/garbage-collection, etc.
The tricky bit appears to be recovering the benchmark output and
handling it after a run.
