MemoryBenchmark

Memory Benchmark

The MemoryBenchmark.ino was compiled with each FEATURE_* and the flash memory and static RAM sizes were recorded. The FEATURE_BASELINE selection is the baseline, and its memory usage numbers are subtracted from the subsequent FEATURE_* memory usage.

Version: AUnit v1.7.1

DO NOT EDIT: This file was auto-generated using make README.md.

How to Regenerate

To regenerate this README.md:

$ make clean_benchmarks
$ make benchmarks
$ make README.md

The make benchmarks target uses collect.sh script which calls auniter.sh (https://github.com/bxparks/AUniter) to invoke the Arduino IDE programmatically. It produces a *.txt file with the flash and ram usage information (e.g. nano.txt).

The make README.md command calls the generated_readme.py Python script which generates this README.md file. The ASCII tables below are generated by the generate_table.awk script, which takes each *.txt file and converts it to an ASCII table.

RAM usage remains constant as more objects are created, which indicates that an initial pool of a certain minimum size is created regardless of the actual RAM usage by objects.
