`` `trait` Benchmark
  `extends` AnyRef

  `Benchmark` can be used to quickly turn an existing class into a benchmark. Here is a short example:

        object sort1 extends Sorter with Benchmark {
          def run = sort(List.range(1, 1000))
        }

  The `run` method has to be defined by the user, who will perform the timed operation there. Run the benchmark as follows:

        > scala sort1 5 times.log

  This will run the benchmark 5 times and log the execution times in a file called `times.log`

Value Summary
`var` | multiplier : Int

Method Summary
`def` | main (args : Array[String]) : Unit The entry point. It takes two arguments: the number of consecutive runs, and the name of a log file where to append the times.
`abstract def` | run : Unit this method should be implemented by the concrete benchmark
`def` | runBenchmark (noTimes : Int) : List[Long] Run the benchmark the specified number of times and return a list with the execution times in milliseconds in reverse order of the execution
