If we're handing out tips, then as noted in a few examples from the article hyperfine is even more useful when called with multiple commands directly. It presents a concise epilogue with the information you're probably trying to gleam from a run such as yours:
$ hyperfine -L arg '1,2,3' 'sleep {arg}'
…
Summary
sleep 1 ran
2.00 ± 0.00 times faster than sleep 2
3.00 ± 0.00 times faster than sleep 3
If your commands don't share enough in common for that approach then you can declare them individually, as in "hyperfine 'blib 1' 'blob x y' 'blub --arg'", and still get the summary.
i once used hyperfine to micro-bench elisp functions. i se $SHELL to a script that evaluated it's arguments in emacs by talking to a long-running session over a named pipe. Hyperfine runs a few no-ops with $SHELL and factored out the overhead, though it was still helpful to run a nested loop in elisp for finer results.
