β¨ NAME β¨

render_bench β benchmark the XRender extension π
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
no flags, no options, no little arguments to memorize. it's just:
render_bench
that's it. that's the whole vibe. run it and go π
π¦ DESCRIPTION π¦
so render_bench is this program that runs a whole series of tests to benchmark the XRender X11 extension. like, it's putting XRender through its paces, one test at a time, to see how it's performing β¨
and because comparing things in a vacuum is giving absolutely nothing, it also runs those exact same tests using the Imlib2 library π«Ά so you get a baseline β a point of reference β for comparing performance between the two. it's giving very "who wore it better" but for rendering, no cap π
