Benchmark Comparison — groundSpring

Rendered from 02-benchmark-comparison.ipynb — live notebook from the ABG shared workspace

Benchmark Comparison — groundSpring¶

Rust vs Python performance across 28 benchmarked experiments, plus three-mode benchmark data (default → barraCuda CPU → barraCuda GPU) and the 110-delegation inventory breakdown by barraCuda module.

Data sources: experiments/results/benchmark_timing.json, experiment_catalog.json

For other springs: Replace benchmark data with your own timing JSONs. Keep the Rust-vs-Python comparison pattern and delegation breakdown.

Overall Rust vs Python speedup: 5.1x
Excluding LAPACK-bound: 11.6x
barraCuda delegations: 110 (67 CPU + 43 GPU)
