Benchmarks

Run the benchmarks with the following command:

python run.py [--reader] [--retriever_index] [--retriever_query] [--ci] [--update-json]

You can specify which components and processes to benchmark with the following flags.

--reader will trigger the speed and accuracy benchmarks for the reader. Here we simply use the SQuAD dev set.

--retriever_index will trigger indexing benchmarks

--retriever_query will trigger querying benchmarks (embeddings will be loaded from file instead of being computed on the fly)

--ci will cause the the benchmarks to run on a smaller slice of each dataset and a smaller subset of Retriever / Reader / DocStores.

--update-json will cause the script to update the json files in docs/_src/benchmarks so that the website benchmarks will be updated.
