+ - Building h5perf/h5perf_serial in "standalone mode" has been removed
+
+ Building h5perf separately from the library was added circa 2008
+ in HDF5 1.6.8. It's unclear what purpose this serves and the current
+ implementation is currently broken. The existing files require
+ H5private.h and the symbols we use to determine how the copied
+ platform-independence scheme should be used come from H5pubconf.h,
+ which may not match the compiler being used to build standalone h5perf.
+
+ Due to the maintenance overhead and lack of a clear use case, support
+ for building h5perf and h5perf_serial separately from the HDF5 library
+ has been removed.
+

+
+ - The perf tool has been removed
+
+ The small `perf` tool didn't really do anything special and the name
+ conflicts with gnu's perf tool.
