Merge and improve sage's benchmarking frameworks

mezzarobba commented 10 years ago

Some experimental work I started a while ago and have no time to continue right now.

Overall goal: make it easy both to benchmark sage against other tools and to track the performance of various subsystems across versions.

More or less done:

Merge the various existing bits of benchmarking infrastructure.
Port existing benchmarks to the unified framework. Todo:
Support creating benchmark suites.
Support saving the results of a run (to compare several versions of sage or test the performance impact of a patch).
Clean up and improve the existing benchmarks.
...

Component: performance

see also https://github.com/sagemath/sage/issues/25262 for using an external tool (asv) instead.

Yes, that's certainly a better option, and the attached branch has bitrotten. I think we can close this ticket. (Opinions?)
