testing.B.Loop: Some More Predictable Benchmarking for You | HackerNoon
Briefly

Go 1.24 introduces a new approach to writing benchmarks in Go via testing.B.Loop, which enhances robustness and simplicity compared to traditional methods. The previous benchmark strategy could lead to errors due to compiler optimizations and improper handling of setup and cleanup code. The new testing.B.Loop automatically handles these issues, ensuring cleaner and more reliable benchmark results. Developers can focus on the core logic of their benchmarks without worrying about accidentally including non-essential timing in their measurements or dealing with the common oversights related to manual timing controls.
Go 1.24 introduces testing.B.Loop, which streamlines and improves the robustness of benchmarks by eliminating pitfalls of previous approaches.
With b.Loop, unwanted compiler optimizations are avoided, and setup/cleanup code is excluded from benchmark timing, ensuring more accurate results.
