In order to run all Go bench tests (including postgres related) use go-postgres-bench-tests target. It could be configured with

• BENCHTIME – approximate run time for each benchmark
• BENCHTIMEOUT – if positive, sets an aggregate time limit for all tests

# on base branch
BENCHTIME=1s BENCHTIMEOUT=30m make go-postgres-bench-tests | tee old.txt
# on new branch
BENCHTIME=1s BENCHTIMEOUT=30m make go-postgres-bench-tests | tee new.txt
# compare the results
go install golang.org/x/perf/cmd/benchstat@latest
benchstat -csv old.txt new.txt

Please use README.ipynb for local developnment of performance tests. That README is designed to be easy executable.

You must install Jupyter bash kernel. That can be done with the following commands:

pip install bash_kernel
python -m bash_kernel.install

After that, you can use VS Code with Jupyter plugin to easy render notebook and execute commands from it.

For that you can install the following plugins:

• https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-toolsai.jupyter
• https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-python.python

Then ensure that the Jupyter server is up and running, open the search bar by hitting cmd+shift+p and looking for Jupyter: Select Interpreter to Start Jupyter Server. Once the server is up and running you should be able to configure it with a desired Kernel if not already set. In the top right look for what language is configured then select Select Another Kernel -> Jupyter Kernel -> Bash.
