benchmark-ips
A Ruby gem that benchmarks code performance in iterations per second with automatic iteration scaling.
What is benchmark-ips?
benchmark-ips is a Ruby gem that provides an iterations-per-second benchmarking tool, enhancing the standard Benchmark library. It automatically determines how many times to run code snippets to gather meaningful performance data, solving the problem of guessing iteration counts for microbenchmarks. It outputs detailed comparisons with statistical measures like standard deviation or confidence intervals.
Ruby developers and performance engineers who need to measure and compare the speed of small code blocks, algorithms, or library implementations.
Developers choose benchmark-ips because it automates iteration scaling, provides statistical rigor, and offers features like side-by-side comparisons and JSON export, making it more convenient and accurate than manual benchmarking.
