+## `db-bench`
+
+Run the benchmark:
+
+```
+node bench/db-bench.js
+```
+
+This writes results to `bench/db-bench.csv` by default. To save results from multiple runs, add `--out <filename>`. For example, you could switch branches (assuming that both branches have the same benchmark code):
+
+```
+node bench/db-bench.js --out master.csv
+
+git checkout wip
+node-gyp rebuild
+node bench/db-bench.js --out wip.csv
+```
+
+Then plot both runs with `db-bench-plot.sh <file, ..>` (the basenames of the files are used for the legend):
+
+```
+./bench/db-bench-plot.sh *.csv
+```
+
+If you are on Windows, you can use git bash:
+
+```
+bash bench/db-bench-plot.sh master.csv wip.csv
+```
