# Benchmarks
This directory (and its sub-directories) contain benchmarks for
Flutter. The reporting format for benchmarks is not standardized yet,
so benchmarks here are typically run by hand. To run a benchmark:
1. Build `sky_shell` for Linux Release using the instructions in the
[Engine repository](https://github.com/flutter/engine).
2. Run `pub get` in the `packages/unit` directory.
3. Run the benchmarks by running the following command from the root
of the flutter repository (replacing `stocks/layout_bench.dart`
with the path to whichever benchmark you want to run):
```
/path/to/engine/src/out/Release/sky_shell packages/unit/benchmark/stocks/layout_bench.dart --package-root=packages/unit/packages
```
