Describe the Enhancement

Make the necessary enhancements to the benchmarking tool under the internal/scripts/benchmark directory to support measuring the Grid-Diag tool. Focus is for running via command line (vs use cases via METplus wrappers).

Sample commands:

seneca in /d1/personal/briannen/grid_diag_gfs and the command:
'''
/d1/projects/GRID_DIAG_OPTIMIZATION/MET/bin/grid_diag -data gfs.t00z.pgrb2.0p50.f012 -out grid_diag_gfs.nc -config GridDiagConfig_gfs
'''

The high-res case: at /d1/personal/briannen/grid_diag_hr

• default case:
  '''
  /d1/projects/GRID_DIAG_OPTIMIZATION/MET/bin/grid_diag -data mpashn4nssl_2024051612f12.grib2 MergedReflectivityQCComposite_00.50_20240517-000000.grib2 -out grid_diag_hr.nc -config GridDiagConfig_hr
  '''
• more bins case
  '''
  /d1/projects/GRID_DIAG_OPTIMIZATION/MET/bin/grid_diag -data mpashn4nssl_2024051612f12.grib2 MergedReflectivityQCComposite_00.50_20240517-000000.grib2 -out grid_diag_hr_morebins.nc -config GridDiagConfig_hr_morebins
  '''
• less bins case:
  '''
  /d1/projects/GRID_DIAG_OPTIMIZATION/MET/bin/grid_diag -data mpashn4nssl_2024051612f12.grib2 MergedReflectivityQCComposite_00.50_20240517-000000.grib2 -out grid_diag_hr_lessbins.nc -config GridDiagConfig_hr_lessbins
  '''

gfs cases
/d1/personal/briannen/grid_diag_gfs

• more bins case:
  '''
  /d1/projects/GRID_DIAG_OPTIMIZATION/MET/bin/grid_diag -data gfs.t00z.pgrb2.0p50.f012 -out grid_diag_gfs_morebins.nc -config GridDiagConfig_gfs_morebins
  '''
• less bins case:
  '''
  /d1/projects/GRID_DIAG_OPTIMIZATION/MET/bin/grid_diag -data gfs.t00z.pgrb2.0p50.f012 -out grid_diag_gfs_lessbins.nc -config GridDiagConfig_gfs_lessbins

Time Estimate

Sub-Issues

Consider breaking the enhancement down into sub-issues.
using the ctrack.hpp employed in the ensemble-stat benchmarking:

• Identify the functions to instrument for the Grid Diag tool
• Build the MET tool with instrumented code
• Run sample grid-diag examples as baseline
• Make any necessary changes to support
