+Benchmarking
+============
+
+Bitcoin Core has an internal benchmarking framework, with benchmarks
+for cryptographic algorithms such as SHA1, SHA256, SHA512 and RIPEMD160. As well as the rolling bloom filter.
+
+After compiling bitcoin-core, the benchmarks can be run with:
+`src/bench/bench_bitcoin`
+
+The output will look similar to:
+```
+#Benchmark,count,min,max,average
