## Tips and Best Practices

To get realistic results, you should exercise care when running benchmarks. Here are a few tips:

### Do

* Ensure that the system executing your microbenchmarks has as little load as possible. Shutdown every process that can cause unnecessary
  runtime jitter. Watch the `Error` column in the benchmark results to see the run-to-run variance.

# when using variables like `TFCI_OUTPUT_DIR` in `docker exec commands,
# requiring conditional path adjustments throughout the CI scripts.
# Note: This does not work for `docker cp` commands.
# For a little more detail, see:
