This is a really insightful and helpful write-up. Thank you! I am curious, though: what were the finalists for the eventual BlackHole API? π

@rahulrav.com might know, since Chris isn't on Bluesky it seems.

I don't know what the contenders were to be honest π. These APIs became final before I started looking into Perf. Will ask Chris and get back.

It must have been. I think the answer might be a similar API defined by the Java Microbenchmarking harness. Prior art π

First rule in benchmarking: Either you know when and how to use a black hole or youβre doing it wrong.
