-### Benching Usage
+## Benching
 
-Basic usage:
+With this module you can benchmark your code and get information on how is it
+performing.
+
+### Basic usage:
+
+Benchmarks can be registered using the `bench` function, where you can define a
+code, that should be benchmarked. `b.start()` has to be called at the start of
+the part you want to benchmark and `b.stop()` at the end of it, otherwise an
+error will be thrown.
+
+After that simply calling `runBenchmarks()` will benchmark all registered
+benchmarks and log the results in the commandline.
 
 ```ts
 import { runBenchmarks, bench } from "https://deno.land/std/testing/bench.ts";

+Running specific benchmarks using regular expressions:
+
+```ts
+runBenchmarks({ only: /desired/, skip: /exceptions/ });
+```
+
+### Processing benchmark results
+
+`runBenchmarks()` returns a `Promise<BenchmarkRunResult>`, so you can process
+the benchmarking results yourself. It contains detailed results of each
+benchmark's run as `BenchmarkResult` s.
+
+```ts
+runBenchmarks()
+  .then((results: BenchmarkRunResult) => {
+    console.log(results);
+  })
+  .catch((error: Error) => {
+    // ... errors if benchmark was badly constructed
+  });
+```
+
+### Processing benchmarking progress
+
+`runBenchmarks()` accepts an optional progress handler callback function, so you
+can get information on the progress of the running benchmarking.
+
+Using `{ silent: true }` means you wont see the default progression logs in the
+commandline.
+
+```ts
+runBenchmarks({ silent: true }, (p: BenchmarkRunProgress) => {
+  // initial progress data
+  if (p.state === ProgressState.BenchmarkingStart) {
+    console.log(
+      `Starting benchmarking. Queued: ${p.queued.length}, filtered: ${p.filtered}`
+    );
+  }
+  // ...
+});
+```

 #### Benching API
 
 ##### `bench(benchmark: BenchmarkDefinition | BenchmarkFunction): void`
 
 Registers a benchmark that will be run once `runBenchmarks` is called.
 
-##### `runBenchmarks(opts?: BenchmarkRunOptions): Promise<void>`
+##### `runBenchmarks(opts?: BenchmarkRunOptions, progressCb?: (p: BenchmarkRunProgress) => void): Promise<BenchmarkRunResult>`
 
 Runs all registered benchmarks serially. Filtering can be applied by setting
 `BenchmarkRunOptions.only` and/or `BenchmarkRunOptions.skip` to regular
-expressions matching benchmark names.
+expressions matching benchmark names. Default progression logs can be turned off
+with the `BenchmarkRunOptions.silent` flag.
 
-##### Other exports
+##### `clearBenchmarks(opts?: BenchmarkClearOptions): void`
 
-```ts
-/** Provides methods for starting and stopping a benchmark clock. */
-export interface BenchmarkTimer {
-  start: () => void;
-  stop: () => void;

-/** Defines a benchmark through a named function. */
-export interface BenchmarkFunction {

-/** Defines a benchmark definition with configurable runs. */
-export interface BenchmarkDefinition {

+Clears all registered benchmarks, so calling `runBenchmarks()` after it wont run
+them. Filtering can be applied by setting `BenchmarkRunOptions.only` and/or
