+### The `Benchmark` component
+A simple benchmarking tool that provides useful statistics about a certain piece of code.
+
+#### Example 1: A simple benchmark test
+```csharp
+//starts a test with a custom name identifier
+using (Benchmark.Start("Test"))

+  // do some logic in here
+  
+}
+
+// dump results into a string
+var results = Benchmark.Dump();
