I considered that CodSpeed was broken, but it seems reproducible...

oech3 · 2026-01-02T19:36:35Z

cksum related GNU tests are passing.

oech3 · 2026-01-03T08:54:12Z

@naoNao89 Any idea about CodSpeed breakage?

oech3 · 2026-01-03T11:55:25Z

We should fix or remove #10002 before discarding hashsum.

naoNao89 · 2026-01-03T21:21:29Z

The file creation happens outside the benchmark loop, so the benchmarks are measuring almost nothing.

uu/cksum/benches/cksum_bench.rs:14-24

fn $algo_name(bencher: Bencher) {
    let data = text_data::generate_by_size(100, 80);
    let file_path = setup_test_file(&data);  // File created ONCE, outside loop
    
    bencher.bench(|| {
        black_box(run_util_function(
            uumain,
            &["--algorithm", $algo_str, file_path.to_str().unwrap()],
        ));
    });  // This loop only measures reading a cached file
}

I think we should:

generate fresh data inside the benchmark loop, or
clear file system caches between iterations, or
benchmark the hash computation directly without file I/O

@cakebaker @RenjiSann I made a symlink plan. I think we can make individual bins after hashsum deletion.
Should fix #10002 at 1st at least, and I'd like to merge clap related PRs to reduce size of a PR at both case (1 bin or N bins).

Failing test is uptime.

This looks very dangerous option if we don't have an extension --untagged on md5sum. Closing.
