"""Python script that automates the benchmarking of Go utf8.Valid function over
small inputs.
This script will clone the Go repository, build the Go toolchain, and run the
utf8.Valid benchmarks over small inputs, both on the CL and its parent, and plot
the time per operation.
Requirements:
- Python 3

Proposal for document editing structure API for go-toml/v2.
// Package document provides tools for manipulating the structure of TOML
// documents.
//
// While github.com/pelletier/go-toml provides efficient functions to transform
// TOML documents to and from usual Go types, this package allows you to create
// and modify the structure of a TOML document.
//
// Comments
//
// Most structural elements of a Document can have comments attached to them.

Benchmarking Go on AMD

While benchmarking https://github.com/pelletier/go-toml/tree/v2, I decided to play with CPU frequency scaling, to eliminate some noise in the benchmarks.

Running on the following:

goos: linux
goarch: amd64
cpu: AMD Ryzen 9 5950X 16-Core Processor
kernel: 5.12.8-300.fc34.x86_64
