Example Use of SpeedTest

Program 
# include <cppad/utility/speed_test.hpp>

// Some compilers have gotten smarter and do not calucate somthing that is not used
// so make the result a global.
double global_result = 0.0;

std::string Test(size_t size, size_t repeat)
{   // setup
    double *a = new double[size];
    double *b = new double[size];
    size_t i  = size;;
    while(i)
    {   --i;
        a[i] = double(i);
        b[i] = double(2 * i);
    }
    // operations we are timing
    while(repeat--)
    {   i = size;;
        while(i)
        {   --i;
            global_result += a[i] * b[i];
        }
    }
    // teardown
    delete [] a;
    delete [] b;

    // return a test name that is valid for all sizes and repeats
    return "double: result = sum_i a[i] * b[i]";
}
int main(void)
{
    CppAD::SpeedTest(Test, 20, 20, 100);
    return 0;
}
Output
Executing of the program above generated the following output (the rates will be different for each particular system): 
 
    double: c[*] = a[*] + b[*]
    size = 20  rate = 7,157,515
    size = 40  rate = 3,887,214
    size = 60  rate = 2,685,214
    size = 80  rate = 2,032,124
    size = 100 rate = 1,657,828
