Benchmarks

To enable performance profiling without running the benchmarks as root, you may need to adjust the value of perf_event_paranoid in the Linux kernel to an appropriate value for your environment. The most permissive value is -1.

echo -1 | sudo tee /proc/sys/kernel/perf_event_paranoid

For running the benchmarks using the FlamegraphProfiler for 5 seconds, run the following command.

cargo bench --bench <name_of_the_benchmark> -- --profile-time=5

We will now find a file called flamegraph.svg in target/criterion/<name-of-benchmark>/profile/flamegraph.svg.
