By default 40 iterations are performed, but you can change this by passing a third parameter (e.g. `openrct2 benchgfx save.sv6 100` would run 100 iterations). + +We provide a test park containing every ride type in the tests folder - `test/tests/testdata/parks/bpb.sv6` ([link](https://github.com/OpenRCT2/OpenRCT2/blob/develop/test/tests/testdata/parks/bpb.sv6)).

This has a bunch of rides under a glass dome, which requires a lot of work to render (open the 'roof on' version in the download).
