From b6f0629a94f7ed6089560be7f0561be19f934fc4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Davidlohr Bueso Date: Mon, 16 Jun 2014 11:14:19 -0700 Subject: perf bench: Add --repeat option There are a number of benchmarks that do single runs and as a result does not really help users gain a general idea of how the workload performs. So the user must either manually do multiple runs or just use single bogus results. This option will enable users to specify the amount of runs (arbitrarily defaulted to 10, to use the existing benchmarks default) through the '--repeat' option. Add it to perf-bench instead of implementing it always in each specific benchmark.
