+## `cuprate-benchmark`
+This crate links all benchmarks together into a single binary that can be run as: `cuprate-benchmark`.
+
+`cuprate-benchmark` will run all enabled benchmarks sequentially and print data at the end.
+
+## Benchmarks
+Benchmarks are opt-in and enabled via features.
+
+| Feature  | Enables which benchmark crate? |
+|----------|--------------------------------|
+| example  | cuprate-benchmark-example      |
+| database | cuprate-benchmark-database     |
+
+## Features
+These are features that aren't for enabling benchmarks, but rather for other things.
+
+Since `cuprate-benchmark` is built right before it is ran,
+these features almost act like command line arguments.
+
+| Features | Does what |
+|----------|-----------|
+| json     | Prints JSON timings instead of a markdown table
+| trace    | Use the `trace` log-level
+| debug    | Use the `debug` log-level
+| warn     | Use the `warn` log-level
+| info     | Use the `info` log-level (default)
+| error    | Use the `error` log-level

+## `cuprate-benchmark-lib`
+This crate is the glue between
+[`cuprate-benchmark`](https://github.com/Cuprate/cuprate/tree/benches/benches/benchmark/bin)
+and all the benchmark crates.
+
+It defines the [`crate::Benchmark`] trait, which is the behavior of all benchmarks.
+
+See the [`cuprate-benchmark-example`](https://github.com/Cuprate/cuprate/tree/benches/benches/benchmark/example)
+crate to see an example implementation of this trait.
+
+After implementing this trait, a few steps must
+be done such that the `cuprate-benchmark` binary
+can actually run your benchmark crate; see the
+[`Benchmarking` section in the Architecture book](https://architecture.cuprate.org/benchmarking/intro.html)
+to see how to do this.

+An example of using Criterion for benchmarking Cuprate crates.
+
+Consider copy+pasting this crate to use as a base when creating new Criterion benchmark crates.
+
+## `src/`
+Benchmark crates have a `benches/` ran by `cargo bench`, but they are also crates themselves,
+as in, they have a `src` folder that `benches/` can pull code from.
+
+The `src` directories in these benchmarking crates are usually filled with
+helper functions, types, etc, that are used repeatedly in the benchmarks.
+
+## `benches/`
+These are the actual benchmarks ran by `cargo bench`.

+# Crates
+This is an index of all of Cuprate's in-house crates it uses and maintains.
+
+They are categorized into groups.
+
+Crate documentation for each crate can be found by clicking the crate name or by visiting <https://doc.cuprate.org>. Documentation can also be built manually by running this at the root of the `cuprate` repository:
+```bash
+cargo doc --package $CRATE
+```
+For example, this will generate and open `cuprate-blockchain` documentation:
+```bash
+cargo doc --open --package cuprate-blockchain

+# Creating
+Creating a new Criterion-based benchmarking crate for one of Cuprate's crates is relatively simple,
+although, it requires knowledge of how to use Criterion first:
+
+1. Read the `Getting Started` section of <https://bheisler.github.io/criterion.rs/book>
+2. Copy [`benches/criterion/example`](https://github.com/Cuprate/cuprate/tree/main/benches/criterion/example) as base
+3. Get started
+
+## Naming
+New benchmark crates using Criterion should:
+- Be in [`benches/criterion/`](https://github.com/Cuprate/cuprate/tree/main/benches/criterion/)
+- Be in the `cuprate-criterion-$CRATE_NAME` format
+
+For a real example, see:
+[`cuprate-criterion-json-rpc`](https://github.com/Cuprate/cuprate/tree/main/benches/criterion/cuprate-json-rpc).
+
+## Workspace
+Finally, make sure to add the benchmark crate to the workspace
+[`Cargo.toml`](https://github.com/Cuprate/cuprate/blob/main/Cargo.toml) file.
+
+Your benchmark is now ready to be ran.

+# Creating
+New benchmarks are plugged into `cuprate-benchmark` by:
+1. Implementing `cuprate_benchmark_lib::Benchmark`
+1. Registering the benchmark in the `cuprate_benchmark` binary
+
+See [`benches/benchmark/example`](https://github.com/Cuprate/cuprate/tree/main/benches/benchmark/example)
+for an example.
+
+## Creating the benchmark crate
+Before plugging into `cuprate-benchmark`, your actual benchmark crate must be created:
+
+1. Create a new crate inside `benches/benchmark` (consider copying `benches/benchmark/example` as a base)
+1. Pull in `cuprate_benchmark_lib` as a dependency
+1. Create a benchmark
+1. Implement `cuprate_benchmark_lib::Benchmark`
+
+New benchmark crates using `cuprate-database` should:
+- Be in [`benches/benchmark/`](https://github.com/Cuprate/cuprate/tree/main/benches/benchmark/)
+- Be in the `cuprate-benchmark-$CRATE_NAME` format
+
+For a real example, see:
+[`cuprate-benchmark-database`](https://github.com/Cuprate/cuprate/tree/main/benches/benchmark/cuprate-database).
+
+## `cuprate_benchmark_lib::Benchmark`
+This is the trait that standardizes all benchmarks ran under `cuprate-benchmark`.
+
+It must be implemented by your benchmarking crate.
+
+See `cuprate-benchmark-lib` crate documentation for a user-guide: <https://doc.cuprate.org/cuprate_benchmark_lib>.
+
+## Adding a feature to `cuprate-benchmark`
+After your benchmark's behavior is defined, it must be registered
+in the binary that is actually ran: `cuprate-benchmark`.
+
+If your benchmark is new, add a new crate feature to [`cuprate-benchmark`'s Cargo.toml file](https://github.com/Cuprate/cuprate/tree/main/benches/benchmark/bin/Cargo.toml) with an optional dependency to your benchmarking crate.
+
+Please remember to edit the feature table in the
+[`README.md`](https://github.com/Cuprate/cuprate/tree/main/benches/benchmark/bin/README.md) as well!
+
+## Adding to `cuprate-benchmark`'s `main()`
+After adding your crate's feature, add a conditional line that run the benchmark
+if the feature is enabled to the `main()` function:
+
+For example, if your crate's name is `egg`:
+```rust
+cfg_if! {
+	if #[cfg(feature = "egg")] {
+		run::run_benchmark::<cuprate_benchmark_egg::Benchmark>(&mut timings);
+	}
+}
+```
+
+## Workspace
+Finally, make sure to add the benchmark crate to the workspace
+[`Cargo.toml`](https://github.com/Cuprate/cuprate/blob/main/Cargo.toml) file.
+
+Your benchmark is now ready to be ran.

+# cuprate-benchmark
+Cuprate has 2 custom crates for general benchmarking:
+- `cuprate-benchmark`; the actual binary crate ran
+- `cuprate-benchmark-lib`; the library that other crates hook into
+
+The abstract purpose of `cuprate-benchmark` is very simple:
+1. Set-up the benchmark
+1. Start timer
+1. Run benchmark
+1. Output data
+
+`cuprate-benchmark` runs the benchmarks found in [`benches/benchmark/cuprate-*`](https://github.com/Cuprate/cuprate/tree/main/benches/benchmark).
+
+`cuprate-benchmark-lib` defines the `Benchmark` trait that all
+benchmark crates implement to "plug-in" to the benchmarking harness.

+# Benchmarking
+Cuprate has 2 types of benchmarks:
+- [Criterion](https://bheisler.github.io/criterion.rs/book/user_guide/advanced_configuration.html) benchmarks
+- `cuprate-benchmark` benchmarks
+
+Criterion is used for micro benchmarks; they time single functions, groups of functions, and generally are small in scope.
+
+`cuprate-benchmark` and [`cuprate-benchmark-lib`](https://doc.cuprate.org/cuprate_benchmark_lib) are custom in-house crates Cuprate uses for macro benchmarks; these test sub-systems, sections of a sub-system, or otherwise larger or more complicated code that isn't well-suited for micro benchmarks.
+
+## File layout and purpose
+All benchmarking related files are in the [`benches/`](https://github.com/Cuprate/cuprate/tree/main/benches) folder.
+
+This directory is organized like such:
+
+| Directory                     | Purpose |
+|-------------------------------|---------|
+| [`benches/criterion/`](https://github.com/Cuprate/cuprate/tree/main/benches/criterion) | Criterion (micro) benchmarks
+| `benches/criterion/cuprate-*` | Criterion benchmarks for the crate with the same name
+| [`benches/benchmark/`](https://github.com/Cuprate/cuprate/tree/main/benches/benchmark) | Cuprate's custom benchmarking files
+| [`benches/benchmark/bin`](https://github.com/Cuprate/cuprate/tree/main/benches/benchmark/bin) | The `cuprate-benchmark` crate; the actual binary run that links all benchmarks
+| [`benches/benchmark/lib`](https://github.com/Cuprate/cuprate/tree/main/benches/benchmark/lib) | The `cuprate-benchmark-lib` crate; the benchmarking framework all benchmarks plug into
+| `benches/benchmark/cuprate-*` | `cuprate-benchmark` benchmarks for the crate with the same name
