Benchmarks to compare digestif and mirage-crypto hash functions using bechamel.

./script launches some benchmarks for example. You can either change the parameters of the benchmarks directly in the script file or launch it manually.

bench [OPTION] ...

• --hash=HASH or --hash HASH with HASH in md5, sha1, sha224, sha256, sha384 or sha512. Default value is sha512. This option defines which hash functions are benchmarked. It can be used multiple times to benchmark several hashes functions.

• --measure=MEASURE or --measure MEASURE with MEASURE in clock, minor, major. Default value is clock. This option defines what measurements are taken. clock will result in measurements for the monotonic clock (i.e. runtime). minor and major are for measurements of allocated memory in minor and major heap respectively. This option can be used only once by command line.

• --all make that benchmarks for all available hashes are launched. This option overwrites the hash option.
