New submission from Florent Xicluna <florent.xicluna@gmail.com>: The benchmarking tools "pystones" and "pybench" which are shipped with the Python standard distribution are not documented. The only information is in the what's-new for Python 2.5: http://docs.python.org/dev/whatsnew/2.5.html?highlight=pybench#new-improved-... IMHO, they should be mentioned somewhere in the HOWTOs, the FAQ or the standard library documentation ("Development Tools" or "Debugging and Profiling") ---------- assignee: docs@python components: Benchmarks, Documentation messages: 165603 nosy: docs@python, flox priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: pybench and test.pystone poorly documented type: behavior versions: Python 3.3 _______________________________________ Python tracker <report@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue15369> _______________________________________
