extern mod extra;

use std::vec;

#[bench]
fn bench_with_capacity(b: &mut extra::test::BenchHarness) {
    do b.iter {
        let _v: ~[u8] = vec::with_capacity(1024);
    }
}

Before:

test bench_with_capacity ... bench: 293 ns/iter (+/- 0)

After:

test bench_with_capacity ... bench: 125 ns/iter (+/- 3)

Tests all passed, bors is just being weird.
