Changes for version 0.04 - 2010-09-21

  • Various small but important bug fixes.
  • Now comes with Benchmark::Dumb, an almost-Benchmark-compatible interface.
  • Requires newer Number::WithError (1.00).
  • Outlier-filtering now a feature of the statistics package.
  • Ships with a toy-MC for simulating timing distributions.
  • Outlier rejection now at three sigma instead of 2.5.
  • Option to disable subtraction of dry-run timing.
  • Iterative re-running now re-runs a fraction of the previous runs to avoid frequent sorting overhead. (geometric progression)
