 [Bevymark](../examples/stress_tests/bevymark.rs) | A heavy sprite rendering workload to benchmark your system with Bevy
+[Many Animated Sprites](../examples/stress_tests/many_animated_sprites.rs) | Displays many animated sprites in a grid arragement with slight offsets to their animation timers. Used for performance testing.
 [Many Cubes](../examples/stress_tests/many_cubes.rs) | Simple benchmark to test per-entity draw overhead. Run with the `sphere` argument to test frustum culling
 [Many Foxes](../examples/stress_tests/many_foxes.rs) | Loads an animated fox model and spawns lots of them. Good for testing skinned mesh performance. Takes an unsigned integer argument for the number of foxes to spawn. Defaults to 1000
 [Many Lights](../examples/stress_tests/many_lights.rs) | Simple benchmark to test rendering many point lights. Run with `WGPU_SETTINGS_PRIO=webgl2` to restrict to uniform buffers and max 256 lights

+//! Renders a lot of animated sprites to allow performance testing.

+//! It sets up many animated sprites in different sizes and rotations, and at different scales in the world,
+//! and moves the camera over them to see how well frustum culling works.
+//!
+//! To measure performance realistically, be sure to run this in release mode.
