A wide variety of robotics applications strongly rely on simulator performance. While many open-source simulators/physics engines are available, each with its benefits and drawbacks, there is a lack of simulator-agnostic benchmarks to help developers and users compare and choose the right simulator/physics engine for their specific use case. This project aims to introduce a small number of simple benchmarking worlds to compare various physics engines based on metrics like computational time and numeric
