Histograms of benchmark times

[astrozot]

Hi,

I ported the code that produces the nice histograms of the @benchmark macro from BenchmarkTools to Chairmarks. Right now I created a new package, PrettyChairmarks.jl.

In case there is a general agreement that this useful, I would be happy to make a pull request to include this code directly in Chairmarks.

I'm open to improvements to display format, but don't want to copy the BenchmarkTools display directly at the moment. A new package seems like a great way to independently explore new display formats.

Hi @LilithHafner , thank you for your kind and quick reply. Sure, I fully understand, let us keep this separate for the moment. For my very personal opinion, having a format similar to BenchmarkTools helps in two ways: it allows one to easily compare the results of the two packages, and (especially) has made my coding very fast... 😉 That said, there are for sure many other (better?) ways of expanding the output.
