Examples

All examples are in the sub-repository, located in the examples directory.

Run an example:

git submodule update # update the examples repo
cd examples && cargo run --bin [name]

Benchmarks

Ensure that there is no CPU-heavy process in background!

cd benchmark
cargo bench

Now a HTML report is available at benchmark/target/criterion/report.
