# The `benchmark overhead` command
|
||||
|
||||
Each time an extrinsic or a block is executed, a fixed weight is charged as "execution overhead".
|
||||
This is necessary since the weight that is calculated by the pallet benchmarks does not include this overhead.
|
||||
The exact overhead to can vary per Substrate chain and needs to be calculated per chain.

The benchmark consists of two parts; the [`BlockExecutionWeight`] and the [`ExtrinsicBaseWeight`].

## BlockExecutionWeight
|
||||
|
||||
The block execution weight is defined as the weight that it takes to execute an *empty block*.
|
||||
It is measured by constructing an empty block and measuring its executing time.
|
||||
The result are written to a `block_weights.rs` file which is created from a template.
|
||||
The file will contain the concrete weight value and various statistics about the measurements. For example:

This constant weight is therefore added to each block to ensure that Substrate budgets enough time to execute it.
|

|

## ExtrinsicBaseWeight
|
||||
|
||||
The extrinsic base weight is defined as the weight that it takes to execute an *empty* extrinsic.
|
||||
An *empty* extrinsic is also called a *NO-OP*. It does nothing and is the equivalent to the empty block form above.

An *empty* extrinsic is also called a *NO-OP*. It does nothing and is the equivalent to the empty block form above.
|
||||
The benchmark now constructs a block which is filled with only NO-OP extrinsics.
|
||||
This block is then executed many times and the weights are measured.
|
||||
The result is divided by the number of extrinsics in that block and the results are written to `extrinsic_weights.rs`.

## Output Interpretation
|
||||
|
||||
Lower is better. The less weight the execution overhead needs, the better.
|
||||
Since the weights of the overhead is charged per extrinsic and per block, a larger weight results in less extrinsics per block.
