# Measure the performance of PyMutex and PyThread_type_lock locks
# with short critical sections.
#
# Usage: python Tools/lockbench/lockbench.py [CRITICAL_SECTION_LENGTH]
#
# How to interpret the results:
#
# Acquisitions (kHz): Reports the total number of lock acquisitions in
# thousands of acquisitions per second. This is the most important metric,
# particularly for the 1 thread case because even in multithreaded programs,
# most locks acquisitions are not contended. Values for 2+ threads are
# only meaningful for `--disable-gil` builds, because the GIL prevents most
# situations where there is lock contention with short critical sections.
#
# Fairness: A measure of how evenly the lock acquisitions are distributed.
# A fairness of 1.0 means that all threads acquired the lock the same number
# of times. A fairness of 1/N means that only one thread ever acquired the
# lock.
# See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fairness_measure#Jain's_fairness_index
