I have not the slightest idea what benchmarking actually is, but I do know its used to measure the speed/efficiency of systems/code. If anybody know how to benchmark or just general knowledge of benchmarking that they'd like to share that would be immensely appreciated :)
 
It's not exactly limited to the world of computing either. In the business world, there are benchmarks that compare a business against its competitors in the market. Although generally it is a method to calculate efficiency. As for how to do a computational benchmark, you could make a timer for each trigger before they start and then stop the timer once they are done. Used to do this a lot comparing C with other languages just to show how bulky C is...
