This module attempts to implement reasonably robust benchmarking with little
extra effort and expertise required from the user. That is to say, benchmarking
using this module is likely an improvement over
time some-command --to --benchmark
or
use Benchmark qw/timethis/;
timethis(1000, 'system("some-command", ...)');
The module currently works similar to the former command line, except (in layman
terms) it will run the command many times, estimate the uncertainty of the
result and keep iterating until a certain user-defined precision has been
reached. Then, it calculates the resulting uncertainty and goes through some
pain to discard bad runs and subtract overhead from the timings. The reported
timing includes an uncertainty, so that multiple benchmarks can more easily be
compared.
Please note that Dumbbench works entirely with wallclock time as reported by
Time::HiRes' time() function.
Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.
Approved by: portmgr (tcberner)
Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.
