Manual Timing

Open abduld opened this issue 3 years ago • 3 comments

Is there a mechanism (similar to google benchmark) to perform manual timing. I.e. not use the clock builtin to nanbench but provide our own iteration time to nanobench.

No, currently that's not possible. On startup nanobench internally tunes itself to the accuracy of the std::chrono::steady_clock, and that wouldn't be easily possible with a customizable clock. Why do you think this is necessary?

I'd like to benchmark some GPU code and that needs to use more accurate timers provided by the cuda / opencl apis

Sorry currently I don't have much time to work on this. I'll keep the ticket open, but don't expect anything soon
