Below is the code for a test program designed benchmark the passing of large character data to a subprocedure. To call this program simply call it from a with a numeric parameter. This parameter will instruct the program to perform that number of calls for each test. the results will be an average call time for each test.
The results will be displayed on the terminal.
It may be necessary to amend the code to measure the call time more accurately, or to provide an aggregate call time. this is because on extremely fast machines the values returned may be less than 1 ms per call.
