-- This is a mod that will benchmark two different functions to calculate how much more efficient
-- one function is over the other.

local constants = require("constants")

local mod = RegisterMod("test-benchmark", 1)

-- Benchmark configuration
local NUM_TRIALS_PER_FUNCTION = 100000
local THRESHOLD_IN_SECONDS = 0.001 -- 1 millisecond

-- Variables
local enabled = true
local totalTimeTaken = 0
local i = 0

-- ModCallbacks.MC_POST_RENDER (2)

  if not enabled then

  local startTimeSeconds = socket:gettime()
  for i = 1, NUM_TRIALS_PER_FUNCTION do
    func()
  end

-- Faster function

-- Slower function
