benchmark-timed_each

Install

gem install benchmark-timed_each

Use

require 'benchmark/timed_each'

Simplest case - an array of items

array = (97..107).to_a
Benchmark.timed_each(array) do |i|
  print " doing stuff with #{i} "
  sleep(0.1)
end

Hashes or other things passing multiple values to block

hash = Hash[*array.map { |k|
    [k, k.chr]
}.flatten]
Benchmark.timed_each(hash, :item_to_s => :last) do |key, value|
  sleep(0.1)
end
