# Rhailib Benchmarking - SIMPLIFIED ✨

> **Note**: This document describes the old complex benchmarking system. 
> **For the new minimal system, see [`bench/README.md`](bench/README.md)**

## 🎯 New Minimal Benchmark System

The benchmarking system has been **drastically simplified**:

- **85% Code Reduction**: From 800+ lines to ~113 lines
- **Single File**: All logic in [`bench/simple_bench.rs`](bench/simple_bench.rs)
- **Direct Timing**: Redis timestamps, no complex stats
- **Minimal Dependencies**: No criterion, no abstractions

### Quick Start

```bash
cd bench
cargo run --bin simple_bench
```

### Expected Output
```
🧹 Cleaning up Redis...
🚀 Starting worker...
📝 Creating single task...
⏱️  Waiting for completion...
✅ Task completed in 23.45ms
🧹 Cleaning up...
```

## 📁 New Structure

```
rhailib/
├── bench/                    # NEW: Minimal benchmark system
│   ├── simple_bench.rs       # Main benchmark (85 lines)
│   ├── batch_task.lua        # Simple task creation (28 lines)
│   ├── Cargo.toml           # Dependencies
│   └── README.md            # Usage instructions
└── scripts/                 # Cleaned up scripts
    ├── run_rhai_batch.lua   # Original batch script (kept)
    └── run_rhai.lua         # Basic script (kept)
```

## 🗑️ What Was Removed

- `benches/` directory (complex criterion-based benchmarks)
- `src/benchmarks/` module (redis_stats.rs, worker_manager.rs)
- Complex Lua scripts (`run_rhai_with_wait.lua`, `run_rhai_blocking.sh`)
- Framework dependencies (criterion, complex stats)

## 🚀 Benefits of New System

1. **Minimalism**: Single file, linear flow
2. **Direct Timing**: `updated_at - created_at` from Redis
3. **Easy to Understand**: No abstractions or frameworks
4. **Fast to Modify**: 85 lines vs 800+ lines
5. **Reliable**: Simple Redis operations
6. **Extensible**: Easy to add features incrementally

## 📈 Iteration Plan

- **Current**: Single task (n=1) benchmarking
- **Next**: Small batches (n=5, n=10)
- **Future**: Larger batches and script complexity

## 📚 Old System Documentation (Archived)

The following describes the previous complex system that has been removed:

### Old Architecture (REMOVED)
- Complex Criterion-based benchmarking
- Multi-module statistics collection
- Abstract worker management
- Complex configuration systems
- Framework dependencies

### Old Files (REMOVED)
- `benches/rhai_performance_bench.rs` (237 lines)
- `src/benchmarks/redis_stats.rs` (285 lines)
- `src/benchmarks/worker_manager.rs` (~200 lines)
- `src/benchmarks/mod.rs` (10 lines)

**Total removed**: ~800+ lines of complex code
