A runtime can become faster by doing less work—or the wrong work.

That is why the benchmark artifact keeps canonical output evidence next to throughput. The performance result is not considered admissible simply because the timer stopped sooner.

Correctness is part of the performance contract, not a cleanup task after optimization.

What correctness gate sits beside your fastest inference number?

Engineering fact: The same-weight HTTP benchmark records canonical output evidence so a faster result is not accepted when the compared runtimes produce materially different token output.
