The only requirement is google/benchmark. Assuming the compiler knows where to find its headers and libraries, this should work:
$ g++ -O3 -march=native -o bench bench.cpp -lbenchmark
$ ./bench
On Arch Linux, Google benchmark can be installed with pacman -Syu benchmark.
If you don't want to install Google benchmark yourself, the CMake build will do it for you.
The CMake build downloads and builds Google benchmark on the fly if it doesn't find it in the system.
$ mkdir build
$ cmake -S . -B build
$ cmake --build build
$ ./build/bench
We want to calculate the following as efficiently as possible:
void InvariantMasses(std::size_t bulkSize, const std::vector<bool> &eventMask,
float *pts, float *etas, float *phis, float *masses,
std::size_t *sizes, std::vector<float> &results) {
std::size_t elementIdx = 0u;
for (std::size_t i = 0ul; i < bulkSize; ++i) {
if (eventMask[i]) { // we don't have a value for this entry yet
results[i] = InvMass(pts + elementIdx, etas + elementIdx,
phis + elementIdx, masses + elementIdx,
sizes[i]);
}
elementIdx += sizes[i];
}where pts, etas, phis and masses are flattened arrays of arrays of floats (one array per dataset row) and
sizes contains the sizes of the sub-arrays for every row. There are bulkSize rows in total.
We are only interested in results[i] if eventMask[i] is true.
InvMass in turn looks like this:
template <typename float>
float InvariantMassBaseline(const float *pt, const float *eta, const float *phi, const float *mass, std::size_t size) {
float x_sum = 0.f;
float y_sum = 0.f;
float z_sum = 0.f;
float e_sum = 0.f;
for (std::size_t i = 0u; i < size; ++i) {
// Convert to (e, x, y, z) coordinate system and update sums
const auto x = pt[i] * std::cos(phi[i]);
x_sum += x;
const auto y = pt[i] * std::sin(phi[i]);
y_sum += y;
const auto z = pt[i] * std::sinh(eta[i]);
z_sum += z;
const auto e = std::sqrt(x * x + y * y + z * z + mass[i] * mass[i]);
e_sum += e;
}
// Return invariant mass with (+, -, -, -) metric
return std::sqrt(e_sum * e_sum - x_sum * x_sum - y_sum * y_sum -
z_sum * z_sum);
