# Programmable bootstrapping

This document details the CPU performance benchmarks of programmable bootstrapping and keyswitch operations using **TFHE-rs**.

{% hint style="info" %}
All CPU benchmarks were launched on an `AWS hpc7a.96xlarge` instance equipped with two 96-core `AMD EPYC 9R14 CPU @ 2.60GHz` and 740GB of RAM.
{% endhint %}

The next tables show the execution time of a single programmable bootstrapping as well as keyswitch followed by a programmable bootstrapping depending on the precision of the input message. The associated parameters set are given. The configuration is tfhe-fft + AVX-512.

Note that these benchmarks use T-Uniform parameters. `MB-PBS` stands for multi-bit programmable bootstrapping with a grouping factor set to 4.

## P-fail: $$2^{-64}$$

## Reproducing TFHE-rs benchmarks

**TFHE-rs** benchmarks can be easily reproduced from the [source](https://github.com/zama-ai/tfhe-rs).

{% hint style="info" %}
AVX512 is now enabled by default for benchmarks when available
{% endhint %}

The following example shows how to reproduce **TFHE-rs** benchmarks:

```shell
#PBS benchmarks:
make bench_pbs

#KS-PBS benchmarks:
make bench_ks_pbs
```

# Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.zama.org/tfhe-rs/get-started/benchmarks/cpu/cpu-programmable-bootstrapping.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
