NAME
Bencher::Scenario::Digest::MD5 - Benchmark Digest::MD5 against md5sum
utility
VERSION
This document describes version 0.005 of Bencher::Scenario::Digest::MD5
(from Perl distribution Bencher-Scenario-Digest-MD5), released on
2022-03-19.
SYNOPSIS
To run benchmark with default option:
% bencher -m Digest::MD5
To run module startup overhead benchmark:
% bencher --module-startup -m Digest::MD5
For more options (dump scenario, list/include/exclude/add participants,
list/include/exclude/add datasets, etc), see bencher or run "bencher
--help".
DESCRIPTION
Packaging a benchmark script as a Bencher scenario makes it convenient
to include/exclude/add participants/datasets (either via CLI or Perl
code), send the result to a central repository, among others . See
Bencher and bencher (CLI) for more details.
BENCHMARKED MODULES
Version numbers shown below are the versions used when running the
sample benchmark.

* Digest::MD5 (perl_code)
Code template:
my $ctx = Digest::MD5->new; open my $fh, "<", <filename>; $ctx->addfile($fh); $ctx->hexdigest

To display as an interactive HTML table on a browser, you can add option
"--format html+datatables".
BENCHMARK NOTES
Since they are both implemented in C, the speeds of both are roughly the
same.

CONTRIBUTING
To contribute, you can send patches by email/via RT, or send pull
requests on GitHub.
Most of the time, you don't need to build the distribution yourself. You
can simply modify the code, then test via:
% prove -l
If you want to build the distribution (e.g. to try to install it locally
on your system), you can install Dist::Zilla,
Dist::Zilla::PluginBundle::Author::PERLANCAR, and sometimes one or two
other Dist::Zilla plugin and/or Pod::Weaver::Plugin. Any additional
steps required beyond that are considered a bug and can be reported to
me.
