NAME

Bencher::Scenario::ColorANSIUtil::ansifg - Benchmark ansifg()

VERSION

This document describes version 0.002 of Bencher::Scenario::ColorANSIUtil::ansifg (from Perl distribution Bencher-Scenarios-ColorANSIUtil), released on 2017-01-25.

SYNOPSIS

To run benchmark with default option:

% bencher -m ColorANSIUtil::ansifg

To run module startup overhead benchmark:

% bencher --module-startup -m ColorANSIUtil::ansifg

For more options (dump scenario, list/include/exclude/add participants, list/include/exclude/add datasets, etc), see bencher or run bencher --help.

DESCRIPTION

Packaging a benchmark script as a Bencher scenario makes it convenient to include/exclude/add participants/datasets (either via CLI or Perl code), send the result to a central repository, among others . See Bencher and bencher (CLI) for more details.

BENCHMARK NOTES

We can see the overhead of _rgb_to_indexed() in the ansi16fg() and ansi256fg() functions. For colors that immediately result in an exact match like 000000, the overhead is smaller. For colors that need calculation of minimum square distance like eeeeef, the overhead is larger.

Although in general we do not need to worry about this overhead unless we're calculating colors at rates of hundreds of thousands per seconds.
