Unit tests have the same problem. One need to create a module containing 
a main function and importing the modules one wants to benchmark/test.

One idea would be to add more support for this in the compiler.

Another idea, that might better and is easier to implement, is tool that:

1. Takes a couple of modules on the command line
2. Create a main module which imports the modules on the command line
3. Compile all the modules
4. Run the benchmarks or tests
