vtebench
All benchmarks are done using vtebench:
vtebench -h $(tput lines) -w $(tput cols) -b 104857600 alt-screen-random-write > ~/alt-random
vtebench -c -h $(tput lines) -w $(tput cols) -b 104857600 alt-screen-random-write > ~/alt-random-colors
vtebench -h $(tput lines) -w $(tput cols) -b 10485760 scrolling > ~/scrolling
vtebench -h $(tput lines) -w $(tput cols) -b 104857600 scrolling --fill-lines > ~/scrolling-filled-lines
vtebench -h $(tput lines) -w $(tput cols) -b 10485760 unicode-random-write > ~/unicode-random
They were "executed" using benchmark.py, which will load each file into memory, and then print it to the terminal. This is done 20 times for each test. Then it calculates the mean and standard deviation for each test.
