+== `basic` benchmark ==
+
+The [source:/trunk/examples/bench/basic.py basic.py] benchmark is based on a relatively simple template that includes a lot of the common templating constructs, such as includes/inheritance, looping, conditionals, macros, etc.
 
 All tests run under Python 2.4.3 on Mac OS X (!MacBook 2GHz).

 The test template is rather simple right now and doesn't make much use of the advanced features provided by either Markup or Kid, because then it would be impossible to implement an equivalent template using other template languages.
 
+== `bigtable` benchmark ==
+
+The [source:/trunk/examples/bench/bigtable.py bigtable.py] benchmark renders a large HTML table (with 1000 rows and 10 columns) in two nested loops, where each cell contains a variable reference. This basically measures the raw throughput of the template engine, while not using any advanced features.
