hyperfine in Breadstick

Breadstick runs Debian's own hyperfine package for ARM64, the build a Debian 13 computer with an ARM processor installs, so hyperfine should behave as it does on a Linux PC. It is a command line program rather than an app with a window of its own: you run it by typing its command in Breadstick's Terminal, or in any terminal window on the Linux desktop, and it needs no Desktop or Floating session running.

Commands in the package

  • hyperfine

Type it in Breadstick's Terminal to start the program.

Workflow tools run inside the Terminal as on any Linux system. There is no systemd, so nothing starts in the background on its own: a job runs while something you started keeps it going. More in the docs: What Breadstick cannot do: the system itself.

About hyperfine

From Debian's package description

Developed in Rust, hyperfine provides the following features:

  • Statistical analysis across multiple runs.
  • Support for arbitrary shell commands.
  • Constant feedback about the benchmark progress and current estimates.
  • Warmup runs can be executed before the actual benchmark.
  • Cache-clearing commands can be set up before each timing run.
  • Statistical outlier detection to detect interference from other programs and

caching effects.

  • Export results to various formats: CSV, JSON, Markdown, AsciiDoc.
  • Parameterized benchmarks (e.g. vary the number of threads).

From Debian's description of the hyperfine package, under that package's license.
