Benchmarks
==========
-Soledad has a set of benchmark tests to assess the time and resources taken by
-various tasks.
+We currently use `pytest-benchmark <https://pytest-benchmark.readthedocs.io/>`_
+to write tests to assess the time and resources taken by various tasks.
Results of benchmarking can be seen in https://benchmarks.leap.se/.
+Test repetition
+---------------
+
+`pytest-benchmark` runs tests multiple times so it can provide meaningful
+statistics for the time taken for a tipical run of a test function. The number
+of times that the test is run can be manually or automatically configured. When
+automatically configured, the number of runs is decided by taking into account
+multiple `pytest-benchmark` configuration parameters. See the `the
+corresponding documenation
+<https://pytest-benchmark.readthedocs.io/en/stable/calibration.html>`_ for more
+details on how automatic calibration works.
+
+The actual number of times a test is run depends on many parameters: the time
+taken for a sample run and the configuration of the minimum number of rounds
+and maximum time allowed for a benchmark. For a snapshot of the number of
+rounds for each test function see `the soledad benchmarks wiki page
+<https://0xacab.org/leap/soledad/wikis/benchmarks>`_.
