Is there a benchmark tool for measuring BitBake parse speed? I've been digging into DataSmart. I see oe-build-perf-test but as the name implies it seems like it's for build speed testing.
The perf test does include a parse speed test which is basically "time bitbake -p" with varying levels of cache being present.
You can get interesting profiling data with "bitbake -P" too.
