benchmark

You are running CU benchmarks for a Solana program and comparing results against a stored baseline. This detects performance regressions and tracks optimization progress.

Step 1: Setup

BENCHMARK_DIR=".claude/benchmarks"
BASELINE_FILE="$BENCHMARK_DIR/cu-baseline.json"
CURRENT_FILE="$BENCHMARK_DIR/cu-current.json"

mkdir -p "$BENCHMARK_DIR"

echo "Benchmark configuration:"
echo "  Baseline: $BASELINE_FILE"
echo "  Output:   $CURRENT_FILE"
echo ""

# Verify project
if [ ! -f "Anchor.toml" ] && [ ! -f "Cargo.toml" ]; then
    echo "No Anchor.toml or Cargo.toml found. Cannot benchmark."
    exit 1
fi

Step 2: Build Program

echo "Building program..."

if [ -f "Anchor.toml" ]; then
    anchor build
else
    cargo build-sbf
fi

if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then
    echo "Build failed. Fix compilation errors before benchmarking."
    exit 1
fi

echo "Build successful."
echo ""

Step 3: Run Tests with CU Measurement

echo "Running test suite with CU measurement..."
echo ""

export SBF_OUT_DIR=target/deploy

if [ -f "Anchor.toml" ]; then
    # Run Anchor tests, capture CU output
    anchor test --skip-deploy 2>&1 | tee /tmp/benchmark-output.txt
else
    cargo test 2>&1 | tee /tmp/benchmark-output.txt
fi

TEST_STATUS=$?
if [ $TEST_STATUS -ne 0 ]; then
    echo ""
    echo "Tests failed. Fix failures before benchmarking."
    exit 1
fi

echo ""
echo "Tests passed. Parsing CU data..."

Step 4: Parse CU Results

Extract CU consumption per instruction from test output.

echo "Parsing CU usage from test output..."

# Extract lines with CU data
# Pattern: "Program <ID> consumed <N> of <M> compute units"
grep -i "consumed.*compute units" /tmp/benchmark-output.txt > /tmp/cu-lines.txt

TOTAL_INSTRUCTIONS=$(wc -l < /tmp/cu-lines.txt)
echo "Found $TOTAL_INSTRUCTIONS instruction CU measurements."
echo ""

# Display raw CU data
echo "Raw CU measurements:"
cat /tmp/cu-lines.txt
