Hyperfine is great. I use it sometimes for some quick web page benchmarks:

As mentioned here in the thread, when you want to go into the single ms optimisations it is not the best approach since there is a lot of overhead especially the way I demonstrate here, but it works very well for some sanity checks.

I find k6 a lot nicer for HTTP benching, and no slower to set up than hyperfine (which I love for CLI benching): https://k6.io/

Could hyperfine running curl be an alternative?
