+# Bevy Benchmarks
+
+This is a crate with a collection of benchmarks for Bevy, separate from the rest of the Bevy crates.
+
+## Running the benchmarks
+
+1. Setup everything you need for Bevy with the [setup guide](https://bevyengine.org/learn/book/getting-started/setup/).
+2. Move into the `benches` directory (where this README is located).
+
+    ```sh
+    bevy $ cd benches
+    ```
+
+3. Run the benchmarks with cargo (This will take a while)
+
+    ```sh
+    bevy/benches $ cargo bench
+    ```
+
+    If you'd like to only compile the benchmarks (without running them), you can do that like this:
+
+    ```sh
+    bevy/benches $ cargo bench --no-run
+    ```
+
+## Criterion
+
+Bevy's benchmarks use [Criterion](https://crates.io/crates/criterion). If you want to learn more about using Criterion for comparing performance against a baseline or generating detailed reports, you can read the [Criterion.rs documentation](https://bheisler.github.io/criterion.rs/book/criterion_rs.html).
