benchmarked
Compared against standards
Benchmarked means measured against a standard or reference point.
In business and technology, performance is benchmarked against competitors or industry standards: We benchmarked our load times against the top five sites.
The term comes from surveying, where a benchmark was a physical mark used as a reference for elevation measurements.
