# This is an A/B test utility script used by calmbench.py
#
# For each bench, we get a distribution of min_ms measurements from nanobench.
# From that, we try to recover the 1/3 and 2/3 quantiles of the distribution.
# If range (1/3 quantile, 2/3 quantile) is completely disjoint between A and B,
# we report that as a regression.
#
# The more measurements we have for a bench, the more accurate our quantiles
# are. However, taking more measurements is time consuming. Hence we'll prune
# out benches and only take more measurements for benches whose current quantile
# ranges are disjoint.
#
# P.S. The current script is brute forcely translated from a ruby script. So it
# may be ugly...
