Subject: [ANN] Bench 1.0.0 released

Bench version 1.0.0 released!
http://bench.rubyforge.org

== DESCRIPTION

Do you remeber how to use the benchmark library from the Ruby standard 
lib? I don't.

Now you need not to remember, there is Bench: A DSL around the benchmark 
lib of the Ruby
standard lib with the goal to make benchmarking as easy as possible.

== SYNOPSIS

Adapted example of the benchmark documentation from the pickaxe version 2 
page 657
  
  require 'bench'
  
  string = 'Stormy Weather'
  m = string.method(:length)
  
  benchmark 'code' do
    m.call
  end
  
  benchmark 'send' do
    string.send(:length)
  end
  
  benchmark 'eval' do
    eval "string.length"
  end
  
  run 10_000
