pavelfatin / typometer Goto Github PK

With typometer I always measure at least 28-30ms, no matter which editor (notepad, sublime, cmd.exe,...) I try. With Windows 10 I can easily get down to 14-16ms, i.e. one frame at 60hz, which seems reasonable.
Does anyone know if there's something you can do to reduce the latency in Windows 11?

Hi pavelfatin
i had downloaded & install java and typometer. but not able to use it and i did not find any other notes which explains how to use typometer.Can you please guide me about its uses.

Thanks

This used to work in Emacs, I'm not sure if something has changed. I now get "Available line length is too short"

I'm on macOS 10.13.3

I get this error when trying to use it on Visual Studio 2017, Windows 10 after hitting benchmark and switching to a Visual Studio code file:

I tested with Notepad++ and that works.

@pavelfatin The application starts benchmarking for notepad properly, but after 1st phase, i.e like printing after 5 dots on notepad, it suddenly stops and displays bug as in attached image. It doesn't proceed further. Any thoughts on this bug.

On Arch Linux, with jre10-openjdk 10.0.2.u13, running typometer-1.0.1.jar (binary download) shows:

WARNING: An illegal reflective access operation has occurred

Firstly, thanks for making this excellent and unique tool!

I've been unable to run this succesfully on Fedora 30 with the Gnome 3 window manager. The generated key presses do not appear in gnome-terminal or other apps, but they do appear when I benchmark my IDEA ide. Furthermore, even when the generated characters do appear, they aren't detected by the app. Lastly, the mouse isn't able to click on anything after running the first benchmark.

The mouse click problem is fixed by using a newer JDK, I believe it is this bug :
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8225118

By saving the screen to a file, I see the captured image is all black. I think this is a XWayland issue, as I'm able to see a the screen capture when I log in with "Gnome on Xorg". I wasn't able to create a Wayland solution, and I think the terminal in Gnome on Xorg is slower than Wayland (it reports ~35ms)

Would be wonderful if it used native API for OSX.

Thanks in advance.

macOS dithers solid colors in recent OS versions. This is noticeable on 10.15 with a macbook pro in direct sunlight, for example. Furthermore, antialiasing artifacts due to unaligned drawing on a retina display can cause fuzzy edges. Because typometer checks only for exact color equivalence, it often gets tripped up.

I was unable to use it at all on macOS until I made the following changes:

1. Change BenchmarkImpl.typeSync to consider colors differing by less than 1% to be equal (by summing the difference of the red, green, and blue channels)
2. Change MetricsDetector.uniformLengthFrom to ignore the 2 least significant bits of each color channel.

I'm trying to benchmark an editor and see that typometer seems to benchmark consistently up to a certain number of characters and then it freezes.

At the normal zoom level I was able to benchmark 15 characters, and with a higher zoom level I got up to 68 characters. But it consistently freezes on the same count.

I've followed the recommendations in the "common problems" section.

I found this tool interesting . it works on neoeedit
