Benchmarks
This directory contains benchmarks, and a Makefile to run the benchmarks.
crypto-ubench
This target runs a set of microbenchmarks for the Go cryptographic primitives used by the Hyperledger fabric. Simply execute
make crypto-ubench
to run the microbenchmarks. You can define TIMES on the make command line to
define how many times each run is made. The default is 1 run; If TIMES > 1
then the results are averaged. Define ENV to define an environment or
wrapper-command. For example
make crypto-ubench ENV=time TIMES=3
runs each benchmark 3 times and also reports the elapsed time.
# Functions
P256Sign returns the number of signs per second.
P256Verify returns the number of verifys per second.
P384Sign returns the number of signs per second.
P384Verify returns the number of verifys per second.
