I recall we have nothing in the review queue for the time being, is that correct?

If that's the case, allow me to tender std.benchmark again for inclusion into Phobos. I reworked the benchmarking framework for backward compatibility, flexibility, and convenience.

Code: https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/phobos/pull/794

Dox: http://dlang.org/phobos-prerelease/std_benchmark.html

There are a few enhancement possibilities (such as tracking system/user time separately etc), but there is value in keeping things simple and convenient. Right now it really takes only one line of code and observing a simple naming convention to hook a module into the benchmarking framework.

Looking for a review manager!


Thanks,

Andrei

Don't want to hijack the thread, but I found Philippe's templates really useful for quickly adding timers to functions, e.g.: http://dpaste.dzfl.pl/568cd71f

Technically speaking, I think that there are a few items in the review queue, but no one is pushing for their stuff to be reviewed right now, and I have no clue whether any of it is actually, currently in a reviewable state. So, I see no problem with std.benchmark getting reviewed right now, since no other reviews are in progress or even being pushed for.

I'd like to organize the review.
If that's fine with you I'll post the announcement in a separate thread.

Thanks Jens. Of course that's fine with me. Let the destruction begin!
