Constantly re-reading the timezone information only to be told the exact same thing is wildly expensive, which can hurt in operations that cause a lot of QTimeZone creation, for example, V4's DateObject - which creates them a lot (in DaylightSavingTA). This performance problem was identified when I noticed that a QDateTime binding updated once per frame was causing >100% CPU usage (on a desktop!) thanks to a QtQuickControls 1 Calendar (which has a number of bindings to the date's properties like getMonth() and so on). The newly added tst_QTimeZone::systemTimeZone benchmark gets a ~90% decrease in instruction count: --- before +++ after PASS : tst_QTimeZone::systemTimeZone() RESULT : tst_QTimeZone::systemTimeZone(): - 0.024 msecs per iteration (total: 51, iterations: 2048) + 0.0036 msecs per iteration (total: 59, iterations: 16384) Also impacted (over in QDateTime) is tst_QDateTime::setMSecsSinceEpochTz(). The results here are - on the surface - less impressive (~0.17% drop), however, it isn't even creating QTimeZone on a hot path to begin with, so a large drop would have been a surprise. Added several further benchmarks to cover non-system zones and traverse transitions.

README
This directory contains autotests and benchmarks based on Qt Test. In order
to run the autotests reliably, you need to configure a desktop to match the
test environment that these tests are written for.
Linux X11:
* The user must be logged in to an active desktop; you can't run the
autotests without a valid DISPLAY that allows X11 connections.
* The tests are run against a KDE3 or KDE4 desktop.
* Window manager uses "click to focus", and not "focus follows mouse". Many
tests move the mouse cursor around and expect this to not affect focus
and activation.
* Disable "click to activate", i.e., when a window is opened, the window
manager should automatically activate it (give it input focus) and not
wait for the user to click the window.
