Metabench
A simple framework for creating compile-time microbenchmarks to measure C++ template metaprogramming performance.
What is Metabench?
Metabench is a framework for creating compile-time microbenchmarks in C++. It measures how long it takes to compile specific pieces of code, which is crucial for identifying performance bottlenecks in metaprogramming-heavy libraries. By automating the generation and timing of code variations, it helps developers optimize compilation times.
C++ library developers, especially those working with template metaprogramming, who need to analyze and improve the compile-time performance of their code.
Metabench provides a simple, integrated solution for a niche but critical aspect of C++ development—compile-time performance. It eliminates manual effort in benchmarking, offers precise measurements of code segments, and integrates seamlessly with CMake, making it the go-to tool for metaprogramming performance analysis.
