Folks, I’m building a multiplatform benchmarking toolkit. It’s more or less like JMH, but for JVM (via JMH), JS (via benchmark.js) & Native.
Everything is good, except I need a name for it. If you have an idea, please post in a thread. KMH and anything with c->k transformation I will consider as a last resort. Thanks!

That's the wrong way around 😄

benchmark.kt

[karelpeeters]

@orangy Don't you want C -> K instead of K -> something else?

[orangy]

I don’t want C->K, it’s enough 😆

MultiBench

MPB for multi-platform benchmark
like MPP is multi-platform project

or anybench

Improving upon Daniil's suggestion:
benchmar.kt 😄 (pronounced "benchmarked")

[voddan]

I feel that Kotlin must be in the name as a full word kotlin or the technical abbreviation .kt because it most accurately describes the scope of the library, e.i. "kotlin projects on all platforms supported by kotlin". Simply put, a single K in the middle may be not enough.

[voddan]

also if JetBrains will officially support the development: kotlinx.benchmark

[sindrenm]

“Kennelly”, because it's a benchmarking tool, which has bench in it and the world record in bench presses is held by Ryan Kennelly. Coincidentally, it also starts with a K! It's meant to be! 💪

Currently, we are leaning towards kotlinx.benchmark indeed. I find it a little bit boring, but looks like it is most clear, searchable, unambiguous name

Thanks everyone for creativity 🙂

or just "Perf" (from the word performance)

I like kotlinx.benchmark. Clear and simple!
