-
-// Benchmarks functions of a single integer argument with realistic branch
-// prediction hit rates. Uses a robust estimator to summarize the measurements.
-// The precision is about 0.2%.
-//
-// Examples: see nanobenchmark_test.cc.
-//
-// Background: Microbenchmarks such as http://github.com/google/benchmark
-// can measure elapsed times on the order of a microsecond. Shorter functions
-// are typically measured by repeating them thousands of times and dividing
-// the total elapsed time by this count. Unfortunately, repetition (especially
-// with the same input parameter!) influences the runtime. In time-critical
-// code, it is reasonable to expect warm instruction/data caches and TLBs,
-// but a perfect record of which branches will be taken is unrealistic.
-// Unless the application also repeatedly invokes the measured function with
-// the same parameter, the benchmark is measuring something very different -
-// a best-case result, almost as if the parameter were made a compile-time
-// constant. This may lead to erroneous conclusions about branch-heavy
-// algorithms outperforming branch-free alternatives.
-//
-// Our approach differs in three ways. Adding fences to the timer functions
-// reduces variability due to instruction reordering, improving the timer
-// resolution to about 40 CPU cycles. However, shorter functions must still
-// be invoked repeatedly. For more realistic branch prediction performance,
-// we vary the input parameter according to a user-specified distribution.
-// Thus, instead of VaryInputs(Measure(Repeat(func))), we change the
-// loop nesting to Measure(Repeat(VaryInputs(func))). We also estimate the
-// central tendency of the measurement samples with the "half sample mode",
-// which is more robust to outliers and skewed data than the mean or median.
-
-// NOTE: for compatibility with multiple translation units compiled with
-// distinct flags, avoid #including headers that define functions.
