First of first I wanted to post about my old toy os project which was actually my graduation project; Coremark.
https://github.com/bonesoul/coremark
It's written in some pure ASM and C - and basically can run a few basic performance tests;
So basically current benchmarking tools are all user-space software;
Where in coremark, test subsystem lives within the kernel itself.
What i'm excited about these days is decided to start porting it to Rust and give it a retake.

Out of interest, have you assessed the CPU time cost on doing the benchmarking? Is it easy to switch off or is it a trivial cost?
