.SH "NAME"
cargo\-bench \- Execute benchmarks of a package
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.sp
\fBcargo bench [\fIOPTIONS\fP] [BENCHNAME] [\-\- \fIBENCH\-OPTIONS\fP]\fP
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.sp
Compile and execute benchmarks.
.sp
The benchmark filtering argument \fBBENCHNAME\fP and all the arguments following
the two dashes (\fB\-\-\fP) are passed to the benchmark binaries and thus to
\fIlibtest\fP (rustc\(cqs built in unit\-test and micro\-benchmarking framework).  If
you\(cqre passing arguments to both Cargo and the binary, the ones after \fB\-\-\fP go
to the binary, the ones before go to Cargo.  For details about libtest\(cqs
arguments see the output of \fBcargo bench \-\- \-\-help\fP.  As an example, this will
run only the benchmark named \fBfoo\fP (and skip other similarly named benchmarks
like \fBfoobar\fP):
.sp
.if n .RS 4
.nf
cargo bench \-\- foo \-\-exact
.fi
.if n .RE
.sp
Benchmarks are built with the \fB\-\-test\fP option to \fBrustc\fP which creates an
executable with a \fBmain\fP function that automatically runs all functions
annotated with the \fB#[bench]\fP attribute. Cargo passes the \fB\-\-bench\fP flag to
the test harness to tell it to run only benchmarks.
.sp
The libtest harness may be disabled by setting \fBharness = false\fP in the target
manifest settings, in which case your code will need to provide its own \fBmain\fP
function to handle running benchmarks.
.SH "OPTIONS"
.SS "Benchmark Options"
.sp
\fB\-\-no\-run\fP
.RS 4
Compile, but don\(cqt run benchmarks.
.RE
.sp
\fB\-\-no\-fail\-fast\fP
.RS 4
Run all benchmarks regardless of failure. Without this flag, Cargo will exit
after the first executable fails. The Rust test harness will run all
benchmarks within the executable to completion, this flag only applies to
the executable as a whole.
.RE
.SS "Package Selection"
.sp
By default, when no package selection options are given, the packages selected
depend on the selected manifest file (based on the current working directory if
\fB\-\-manifest\-path\fP is not given). If the manifest is the root of a workspace then
the workspaces default members are selected, otherwise only the package defined
by the manifest will be selected.
.sp
The default members of a workspace can be set explicitly with the
\fBworkspace.default\-members\fP key in the root manifest. If this is not set, a
virtual workspace will include all workspace members (equivalent to passing
\fB\-\-workspace\fP), and a non\-virtual workspace will include only the root crate itself.
.sp
\fB\-p\fP \fISPEC\fP..., \fB\-\-package\fP \fISPEC\fP...
.RS 4
Benchmark only the specified packages. See \fBcargo\-pkgid\fP(1) for the
SPEC format. This flag may be specified multiple times.
.RE
.sp
\fB\-\-workspace\fP
.RS 4
Benchmark all members in the workspace.
.RE
.sp
\fB\-\-all\fP
.RS 4
Deprecated alias for \fB\-\-workspace\fP.
.RE
.sp
\fB\-\-exclude\fP \fISPEC\fP...
.RS 4
Exclude the specified packages. Must be used in conjunction with the
\fB\-\-workspace\fP flag. This flag may be specified multiple times.
.RE
.SS "Target Selection"
.sp
When no target selection options are given, \fBcargo bench\fP will build the
following targets of the selected packages:
.sp
.RS 4
.ie n \{\

benchmark targets
.RE
.sp
The default behavior can be changed by setting the \fBbench\fP flag for the target
in the manifest settings. Setting examples to \fBbench = true\fP will build and
run the example as a benchmark. Setting targets to \fBbench = false\fP will stop
them from being benchmarked by default. Target selection options that take a
target by name ignore the \fBbench\fP flag and will always benchmark the given
target.
.sp
Passing target selection flags will benchmark only the
specified targets.
.sp
\fB\-\-lib\fP
.RS 4
Benchmark the package\(cqs library.
.RE
.sp
\fB\-\-bin\fP \fINAME\fP...
.RS 4
Benchmark the specified binary. This flag may be specified multiple times.
.RE
.sp
\fB\-\-bins\fP
.RS 4
Benchmark all binary targets.
.RE
.sp
\fB\-\-example\fP \fINAME\fP...
.RS 4
Benchmark the specified example. This flag may be specified multiple times.
.RE
.sp
\fB\-\-examples\fP
.RS 4
Benchmark all example targets.
.RE
.sp
\fB\-\-test\fP \fINAME\fP...
.RS 4
Benchmark the specified integration test. This flag may be specified multiple
times.
.RE
.sp
\fB\-\-tests\fP
.RS 4
Benchmark all targets in test mode that have the \fBtest = true\fP manifest
flag set. By default this includes the library and binaries built as
unittests, and integration tests. Be aware that this will also build any
required dependencies, so the lib target may be built twice (once as a
unittest, and once as a dependency for binaries, integration tests, etc.).
Targets may be enabled or disabled by setting the \fBtest\fP flag in the
manifest settings for the target.
.RE
.sp
\fB\-\-bench\fP \fINAME\fP...
.RS 4
Benchmark the specified benchmark. This flag may be specified multiple times.
.RE
.sp
\fB\-\-benches\fP
.RS 4
Benchmark all targets in benchmark mode that have the \fBbench = true\fP
manifest flag set. By default this includes the library and binaries built
as benchmarks, and bench targets. Be aware that this will also build any
required dependencies, so the lib target may be built twice (once as a
benchmark, and once as a dependency for binaries, benchmarks, etc.).
Targets may be enabled or disabled by setting the \fBbench\fP flag in the
manifest settings for the target.
.RE
.sp
\fB\-\-all\-targets\fP
.RS 4
Benchmark all targets. This is equivalent to specifying \fB\-\-lib \-\-bins
\-\-tests \-\-benches \-\-examples\fP.
.RE
.SS "Feature Selection"
.sp
The feature flags allow you to control the enabled features for the "current"
package. The "current" package is the package in the current directory, or the
one specified in \fB\-\-manifest\-path\fP. If running in the root of a virtual
workspace, then the default features are selected for all workspace members,
or all features if \fB\-\-all\-features\fP is specified.
.sp
When no feature options are given, the \fBdefault\fP feature is activated for
every selected package.
.sp
\fB\-\-features\fP \fIFEATURES\fP
.RS 4
Space or comma separated list of features to activate. These features only
apply to the current directory\(cqs package. Features of direct dependencies
may be enabled with \fB<dep\-name>/<feature\-name>\fP syntax. This flag may be
specified multiple times, which enables all specified features.
.RE
.sp
\fB\-\-all\-features\fP
.RS 4
Activate all available features of all selected packages.
.RE
.sp
\fB\-\-no\-default\-features\fP
.RS 4
Do not activate the \fBdefault\fP feature of the current directory\(cqs
package.
.RE
.SS "Compilation Options"
.sp
\fB\-\-target\fP \fITRIPLE\fP
.RS 4
Benchmark for the given architecture. The default is the host
architecture. The general format of the triple is
\fB<arch><sub>\-<vendor>\-<sys>\-<abi>\fP. Run \fBrustc \-\-print target\-list\fP for a
list of supported targets.
.sp
This may also be specified with the \fBbuild.target\fP
.URL "https://doc.rust\-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html" "config value" "."
.sp
Note that specifying this flag makes Cargo run in a different mode where the
target artifacts are placed in a separate directory. See the
.URL "https://doc.rust\-lang.org/cargo/guide/build\-cache.html" "build cache" " "
documentation for more details.
.RE
.SS "Output Options"
.sp
\fB\-\-target\-dir\fP \fIDIRECTORY\fP
.RS 4
Directory for all generated artifacts and intermediate files. May also be
specified with the \fBCARGO_TARGET_DIR\fP environment variable, or the
\fBbuild.target\-dir\fP \c
.URL "https://doc.rust\-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html" "config value" "."
Defaults
to \fBtarget\fP in the root of the workspace.
.RE
.SS "Display Options"
.sp
By default the Rust test harness hides output from benchmark execution to keep
results readable. Benchmark output can be recovered (e.g., for debugging) by
passing \fB\-\-nocapture\fP to the benchmark binaries:
.sp
.if n .RS 4
.nf
cargo bench \-\- \-\-nocapture
.fi
.if n .RE
.sp
\fB\-v\fP, \fB\-\-verbose\fP
.RS 4
Use verbose output. May be specified twice for "very verbose" output which
includes extra output such as dependency warnings and build script output.
May also be specified with the \fBterm.verbose\fP
.URL "https://doc.rust\-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html" "config value" "."

.SS "Manifest Options"
.sp
\fB\-\-manifest\-path\fP \fIPATH\fP
.RS 4
Path to the \fBCargo.toml\fP file. By default, Cargo searches for the
\fBCargo.toml\fP file in the current directory or any parent directory.
.RE
.sp
\fB\-\-frozen\fP, \fB\-\-locked\fP
.RS 4
Either of these flags requires that the \fBCargo.lock\fP file is
up\-to\-date. If the lock file is missing, or it needs to be updated, Cargo will
exit with an error. The \fB\-\-frozen\fP flag also prevents Cargo from
attempting to access the network to determine if it is out\-of\-date.
.sp
These may be used in environments where you want to assert that the
\fBCargo.lock\fP file is up\-to\-date (such as a CI build) or want to avoid network
access.
.RE
.sp
\fB\-\-offline\fP
.RS 4
Prevents Cargo from accessing the network for any reason. Without this
flag, Cargo will stop with an error if it needs to access the network and
the network is not available. With this flag, Cargo will attempt to
proceed without the network if possible.
.sp
Beware that this may result in different dependency resolution than online
mode. Cargo will restrict itself to crates that are downloaded locally, even
if there might be a newer version as indicated in the local copy of the index.
See the \fBcargo\-fetch\fP(1) command to download dependencies before going
offline.

.SS "Miscellaneous Options"
.sp
The \fB\-\-jobs\fP argument affects the building of the benchmark executable but
does not affect how many threads are used when running the benchmarks. The
Rust test harness runs benchmarks serially in a single thread.
.sp
\fB\-j\fP \fIN\fP, \fB\-\-jobs\fP \fIN\fP
.RS 4
Number of parallel jobs to run. May also be specified with the
\fBbuild.jobs\fP \c
.URL "https://doc.rust\-lang.org/cargo/reference/config.html" "config value" "."
Defaults to
the number of CPUs.
.RE
.SH "PROFILES"
.sp
Profiles may be used to configure compiler options such as optimization levels
and debug settings. See
\c
.URL "https://doc.rust\-lang.org/cargo/reference/profiles.html" "the reference"
for more details.
.sp
Benchmarks are always built with the \fBbench\fP profile. Binary and lib targets
are built separately as benchmarks with the \fBbench\fP profile. Library targets
are built with the \fBrelease\fP profiles when linked to binaries and benchmarks.
Dependencies use the \fBrelease\fP profile.
.sp
If you need a debug build of a benchmark, try building it with
\fBcargo\-build\fP(1) which will use the \fBtest\fP profile which is by default
unoptimized and includes debug information. You can then run the debug\-enabled
benchmark manually.
