// Compilebench benchmarks the speed of the Go compiler.
//
// Usage:
//
//	compilebench [options]
//
// It times the compilation of various packages and prints results in
// the format used by package testing (and expected by rsc.io/benchstat).
//
// The options are:
//
//	-alloc
//		Report allocations.
//
//	-compile exe
//		Use exe as the path to the cmd/compile binary.
//
//	-compileflags 'list'
//		Pass the space-separated list of flags to the compilation.
//
//	-count n
//		Run each benchmark n times (default 1).
//
//	-cpuprofile file
//		Write a CPU profile of the compiler to file.
//
//	-memprofile file
//		Write a memory profile of the compiler to file.
//
//	-memprofilerate rate
//		Set runtime.MemProfileRate during compilation.
//
//	-run regexp
//		Only run benchmarks with names matching regexp.
//
// Although -cpuprofile and -memprofile are intended to write a
// combined profile for all the executed benchmarks to file,
// today they write only the profile for the last benchmark executed.
//
// The default memory profiling rate is one profile sample per 512 kB
// allocated (see ``go doc runtime.MemProfileRate'').
// Lowering the rate (for example, -memprofilerate 64000) produces
// a more fine-grained and therefore accurate profile, but it also incurs
// execution cost. For benchmark comparisons, never use timings
// obtained with a low -memprofilerate option.
//
// Example
//
// Assuming the base version of the compiler has been saved with
// ``toolstash save,'' this sequence compares the old and new compiler:
//
//	compilebench -count 10 -compile $(toolstash -n compile) >old.txt
//	compilebench -count 10 >new.txt
//	benchstat old.txt new.txt
//
