Benchmarks for this package are in a separate Swift Package in the Performance/Benchmarks
subdirectory of the repository.
They use the package-benchmark plugin.
Benchmarks depends on the jemalloc memory allocation library, which is
used by package-benchmark to capture memory allocation statistics.
An installation guide can be found in the Getting Started article
for package-benchmark.
You can run the benchmarks CLI by going to the Performance/Benchmarks subdirectory
(e.g. cd Performance/Benchmarks) and invoking:
swift package benchmark
Profiling benchmarks or building the benchmarks in release mode in Xcode with jemalloc isn't
currently supported and requires disabling jemalloc.
Make sure you have quit Xcode and then open it from the command line with the BENCHMARK_DISABLE_JEMALLOC=true
environment variable set:
BENCHMARK_DISABLE_JEMALLOC=true xed .
For more information please refer to swift package benchmark --help or the documentation
of package-benchmark.
