borg-benchmark(1)

✨ NAME ✨

okay bestie, welcome to borg-benchmark — it's the benchmark command in borg, and yes it really is just called that 💅 (it lives inside the borg backup tool manual, page one of the borg-benchmark trilogy, iykyk)

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

borg [common options] benchmark crud ...

that's the whole vibe. borg, then your common options, then benchmark, then whatever sub-thing you want, then its args 🫶

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

These commands perform various benchmarks. That's it. That's the description. They're here so you can measure things instead of just ✨ believing ✨ things, and lowkey that's iconic of them 🎀

not me being like "just one benchmark" and then running it for forty minutes 😭
