Benchmark with bencher -m MathPrimeModules --exclude-dataset-names 100:

#table1#

+--------------------------------+-----------+-----------+------------+---------+---------+

Benchmark module startup overhead (bencher -m MathPrimeModules --module-startup):

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.
