Benchmark Summary #64
Description
Description
One feature that would significantly enhance its utility is the addition of a summary of the benchmarks at the end of its output, similar to the functionality offered by the hyperfine command-line tool.
Proposed Feature Details
The summary would be implemented as a method in the Benchmark class. This method would be responsible for formatting and displaying the summary. Here's a high-level overview of what the summary would include:
- A bold "Summary" heading.
- The name of the benchmark that ran the fastest, highlighted in green.
- A comparison of each subsequent benchmark, showing how many times slower they are compared to the fastest one. This would be visually distinguished with indentation and color coding (e.g., green for the times faster value and blue for the benchmark name).
Use Case
This feature would be particularly useful for developers looking to:
- Quickly assess the performance characteristics of their code.
