Running Benchmark page_cycler

[Jamshed Vesuna]

Hi,

I'm somewhat new to this code base and am trying to record the page load time on a custom page_set. I noticed that page_cycler seems to record this metric, but it does not appear in the list of available benchmarks. Is there a way to extract the page load time out of page_cycler and run this as a custom benchmark?

Thank you

I'm not quite sure what you mean by custom benchmark, but it seems like the simplest way to make a new benchmark is just to make a class very similar to _PageCycler in tools/perf/benchmarks/page_cycler.py that also uses the page_cycler.PageCycler measurement from tools/perf/measurements/page_cycler.py

Thanks for your quick reply. I have a custom page_set in tools/perf/page_sets/ that I'd like to use (not sure if this is related to a benchmark). 

Also, what is the proper way to run the page_cycler benchmark?

Thanks again

You should create a Benchmark class in tools/perf/benchmarks/page_cycler.py that uses your custom page set, and then run your newly created benchmark.

I am having some trouble running any of the benchmarks in page_cycler. Run_benchmark recognizes other benchmarks except page_cycler. Its path looks like its pointing in the right place. Is there something special I need to do for page_cycler?
