2020-07-30Merge #18011: Replace current benchmarking framework with nanobenchWladimir J. van der Laan
78c312c983255e15fc274de2368a2ec13ce81cbf Replace current benchmarking framework with nanobench (Martin Ankerl) Pull request description: Replace current benchmarking framework with nanobench This replaces the current benchmarking framework with nanobench [1], an MIT licensed single-header benchmarking library, of which I am the autor. This has in my opinion several advantages, especially on Linux: * fast: Running all benchmarks takes ~6 seconds instead of 4m13s on an Intel i7-8700 CPU @ 3.20GHz. * accurate: I ran e.g. the benchmark for SipHash_32b 10 times and calculate standard deviation / mean = coefficient of variation: * 0.57% CV for old benchmarking framework * 0.20% CV for nanobench So the benchmark results with nanobench seem to vary less than with the old framework. * It automatically determines runtime based on clock precision, no need to specify number of evaluations. * measure instructions, cycles, branches, instructions per cycle, branch misses (only Linux, when performance counters are available) * output in markdown table format. * Warn about unstable environment (frequency scaling, turbo, ...) * For better profiling, it is possible to set the environment variable NANOBENCH_ENDLESS to force endless running of a particular benchmark without the need to recompile.

This replaces the current benchmarking framework with nanobench [1], an MIT licensed single-header benchmarking library, of which I am the autor. This has in my opinion several advantages, especially on Linux: * fast: Running all benchmarks takes ~6 seconds instead of 4m13s on an Intel i7-8700 CPU @ 3.20GHz. * accurate: I ran e.g. the benchmark for SipHash_32b 10 times and calculate standard deviation / mean = coefficient of variation: * 0.57% CV for old benchmarking framework * 0.20% CV for nanobench So the benchmark results with nanobench seem to vary less than with the old framework. * It automatically determines runtime based on clock precision, no need to specify number of evaluations. * measure instructions, cycles, branches, instructions per cycle, branch misses (only Linux, when performance counters are available) * output in markdown table format. * Warn about unstable environment (frequency scaling, turbo, ...) * For better profiling, it is possible to set the environment variable NANOBENCH_ENDLESS to force endless running of a particular benchmark without the need to recompile.

This is similar to #17375, but currently only one asymptote is supported, and I have added support in the benchmark `ComplexMemPool` as an example. Usage is e.g. like this: ``` ./bench_bitcoin -filter=ComplexMemPool -asymptote=25,50,100,200,400,600,800 ``` This runs the benchmark `ComplexMemPool` several times but with different complexityN settings. The benchmark can extract that number and use it accordingly. Here, it's used for `childTxs`.

Currently the list of includes is not sorted, so developers that write tests and have `clang-format` installed will either have an unrelated change (sorting) included in their commit or they will have to manually undo the sort. This pull preempts both issues by just sorting all includes in one commit. Please be aware that this is **NOT** a change to policy to enforce clang-format or any other developer guideline or process. Developers are free to use whatever tool they want, see also #18651. Edit: Also includes a commit to bump the copyright headers, so that the touched files don't need to be touched again for that.

Still, many places call it redundantly, resulting in longer code and a slight overhead.

2018-05-30Stop translating command line optionsWladimir J. van der Laan
Many options are extremely technical, and refer internals, making it difficult to translate usefully. This came up in discussion of e.g. #10949. If a message is not understood by translators (which are typically end-users, not developers) they'll either translate it literally, making it harder to understand instead of easier, with the added drawback of the user no longer being able to google it. Also the translation was only working for bitcoin-qt as with the console programs, there is no translation backend. So it was injecting never-used translation messages for bitcoin-cli, -tx. For these reasons, stop translating options help completely. This should not affect the output **in any way** except for bitcoin-qt when a non-English language is configured in the locale. This implements #10962.

2015-09-30Simple benchmarking frameworkGavin Andresen
Benchmarking framework, loosely based on google's micro-benchmarking library (https://github.com/google/benchmark) Wny not use the Google Benchmark framework? Because adding Even More Dependencies isn't worth it. If we get a dozen or three benchmarks and need nanosecond-accurate timings of threaded code then switching to the full-blown Google Benchmark library should be considered. The benchmark framework is hard-coded to run each benchmark for one wall-clock second, and then spits out .csv-format timing information to stdout. It is left as an exercise for later (or maybe never) to add command-line arguments to specify which benchmark(s) to run, how long to run them for, how to format results, etc etc etc. Again, see the Google Benchmark framework for where that might end up. See src/bench/MilliSleep.cpp for a sanity-test benchmark that just benchmarks 'sleep 100 milliseconds.' To compile and run benchmarks: cd src; make bench Sample output: Benchmark,count,min,max,average Sleep100ms,10,0.101854,0.105059,0.103881
