I don't know, to me it feels rather strange to add a TestPerfUtil to the public API of a mathematical library. OTOH TestPerfUtils looks to specific to be used outside the context of CM (it uses classes defined in CM). I see two solutions: 1. if you need it just for one project, you could simply copy the class to that project in the test tree 2. if you need it for several projects and there are additional useful classes in the test tree that are concerned with tests in context of CM, a new component could be created that defines a dependency to CM. This dependency (commons-math-testutils ?!) could then be added to what ever project in the test scope.
