Foundational software libraries such as ROOT are under intense pressure to avoid software regression, including performance regressions. Continuous performance benchmarking, as a part of continuous integration and other code quality testing, is an industry best-practice to understand how the performance of a software product evolves. We present a framework, built from industry best practices and tools, to help to understand ROOT code performance and monitor the efficiency of the code for several processor architectures. It additionally allows historical performance measurements for ROOT I/O, vectorization and parallelization sub-systems.
