# Benchmark a LiteRT model

The open-source LiteRT provides a tool to benchmark model execution
on hardware using delegates. This tool is available along with other
artifacts installed on the device.

This benchmarking tool measures and calculates statistics for the
following performance metrics:

- Initialization time
- Inference time of the Warm-up state
- Inference time of the Steady state
- Memory usage during initialization
- Overall memory usage
