SYNOPSIS:
   duplicacy benchmark - Run a set of benchmarks to test download and upload speeds

USAGE:
   duplicacy benchmark [command options]  

OPTIONS:
   -file-size <size>		the size of the local file to write to and read from (in MB, default to 256)
   -chunk-count <count>		the number of chunks to upload and download (default to 64)
   -chunk-size <size>		the size of chunks to upload and download (in MB, default to 4)
   -upload-threads <n>		the number of upload threads (default to 1)
   -download-threads <n>	the number of download threads (default to 1)

The benchmark command has been introduced in duplicacy 2.1.1. It can be used to measure disk access and network speed.
