NAME

Bencher::Scenario::Digest::SHA::SHA1 - Benchmark Digest::SHA against sha1sum

VERSION

This document describes version 0.004 of Bencher::Scenario::Digest::SHA::SHA1 (from Perl distribution Bencher-Scenarios-Digest-SHA), released on 2023-01-19.

SYNOPSIS

To run benchmark with default option:

% bencher -m Digest::SHA::SHA1

To run module startup overhead benchmark:

% bencher --module-startup -m Digest::SHA::SHA1

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.

BENCHMARKED MODULES

Version numbers shown below are the versions used when running the sample benchmark.

String::ShellQuote 1.04

Digest::SHA 6.02

BENCHMARK PARTICIPANTS

  • sha1sum (perl_code)

    Code template:

    my $cmd = "sha1sum ".String::ShellQuote::shell_quote(<filename>); my $res = `$cmd`; $res =~ s/\s.+//s; $res

  • Digest::SHA (perl_code)

    Code template:

    my $ctx = Digest::SHA->new(1); open my $fh, "<", <filename>; $ctx->addfile($fh); $ctx->hexdigest

BENCHMARK DATASETS

  • 30M_file

SAMPLE BENCHMARK RESULTS

Run on: perl: v5.34.0, CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-7200U CPU @ 2.50GHz (2 cores), OS: GNU/Linux Ubuntu version 20.04, OS kernel: Linux version 5.4.0-91-generic.

Benchmark with default options (bencher -m Digest::SHA::SHA1):

CONTRIBUTING

To contribute, you can send patches by email/via RT, or send pull requests on GitHub.

Most of the time, you don't need to build the distribution yourself. You can simply modify the code, then test via:

% prove -l

If you want to build the distribution (e.g. to try to install it locally on your system), you can install Dist::Zilla, Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR, Pod::Weaver::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR, and sometimes one or two other Dist::Zilla- and/or Pod::Weaver plugins. Any additional steps required beyond that are considered a bug and can be reported to me.
