test(perf): measure tree-surface acquisition and move the row it gates - #732
Conversation
CLOUD-935 Tree-surface acquisition cost is the one perf axis the campaign will actually move, and no row owns bringing the number `.claude/rules/rust.md` demands
Why
and states the condition:
No row owns bringing that number. Searched the board; CLOUD-834 measured projection and its own closing line disclaims the acquisition half. CLOUD-850 built the declared-read cache and the read budget, which is the mechanism acquisition would be measured against, not the measurement. Why it matters now rather than laterThree facts compose badly:
Together: a wave can land twenty gates with no perf sensor on either axis. CLOUD-875 is half the answer and is filed; this row is the other half, and neither alone closes it. The counter-consideration, stated so it is not discovered later as an objection: What the deliverable is, preciselyNot "make it faster" — a number and a verdict, in the form the table demands. Refinement — Ready Refinement gate: Definition of Ready & Done. This body carries only specializations.

📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe change adds a standalone acquisition benchmark with configurable document counts, Hyperfine runs, warmups, output paths, and null measurements. A new Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The PR adds an acquisition benchmark and updates the documented seriality threshold, but it currently lacks per-arm acquisition counts and persisted metric identity, and can accept a missing serial baseline as successful. Published results could therefore misattribute work or rely on an invalid comparison, so the PR is not merge-ready until these gaps are fixed. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 4 | ❌ 1❌ Failed checks (1 warning)

Validate benchmark configuration before measurement.
BENCH_NS="" creates an empty list and later raises ValueError at max(NS). BENCH_NULL_PAIRS=0 creates an empty nulls list and later raises ValueError at min(nulls). These paths bypass fail() and the documented exit-status contract.
Parse and validate these values before the benchmark creates fixtures. Require at least one arm and at least one null pair. Reject invalid and negative document counts.

Persist the acquisition metric stamp in the measurement output.
BENCH_METRIC is set in mise.toml, but bench/acquisition/sweep.py does not read it and does not invoke perf-record. The benchmark results therefore have no observable acquisition-wall-clock stamp. The current Rust test passes for any non-default environment assignment, including one that no result consumes.

CLOUD-935. `.claude/rules/rust.md`'s acquisition row said "stays serial
until a number says otherwise" and named the condition CLOUD-834 set:
bring a number about resolution rather than projection. This brings it.
Measured, 100 runs per arm, one machine, back to back:
declared documents p50 ratio to N=1
1 4.75 ms —
16 4.81 ms 1.014
64 5.17 ms 1.088
256 6.12 ms 1.289
The null is five identical pairs at N=256 and spreads 0.958-1.022, so
N=16 is indistinguishable from noise, N=64 is barely outside it, and
N=256 is real. The term is linear at ~5.4 us per declared document.
The verdict stays "serial", and now says where it would stop being
true: acquisition needs roughly 900 declared documents to double what
`batten check` costs, and CLOUD-843's whole campaign is 82 gates of
which 27 open more than five files. "Nothing measured asks otherwise"
is replaced by a number and a threshold.
ONE rule and ONE module across the sweep, with only the `documents`
array growing. The first draft based its ratios on an arm with no rule
at all and read 1.367 at N=16 — almost all of it the fixed cost of
having a policy row, which would have been published as a per-document
cost it is mostly not. The base carries one document instead.
Two arms, because the variable and the cost need different instruments:
`one_row_declaring_n_paths_acquires_n_documents` pins that the engine
acquires once per declared path under exactly the swept shape, since a
sweep over a variable the engine ignored would still draw a curve.

Persist the acquisition metric before declaring it.
This task sets BENCH_METRIC, but bench/acquisition/sweep.py only prints timing fields and does not persist the metric. The benchmark output therefore cannot prove that it records acquisition-wall-clock instead of invocation wall-clock.

Measure documents_acquired for every benchmark arm.
Line 238 reads only Hyperfine timing data. The benchmark discards batten check output and never records documents_acquired.
A declared path count does not prove that the measured work is acquisition. The benchmark therefore cannot meet CLOUD-935’s paired-measurement requirement or detect a regression where declared documents are not acquired. Collect and assert the acquisition count for each sweep arm and each null side before publishing ratios.

Closes CLOUD-935.
.claude/rules/rust.md's concurrency table carried one row whose verdict was explicitly conditional and unmet — tree-surface fact acquisition "stays serial until a number says otherwise" — and named the condition CLOUD-834 set: bring a number showing resolution, not projection. CLOUD-834 measured projection and disclaimed this half; CLOUD-850 built the cache it would be measured against. Nothing owned the measurement. This brings it.The number
mise run acquisition-bench, 100 runs per arm, one machine, back to back:The null is five identical pairs at N=256 and spreads 0.958–1.022. So N=16 is indistinguishable from noise, N=64 is barely outside it, and N=256 is real. The term is linear at ~5.4 µs per declared document.
The verdict
Stays serial — and it now says where that would stop being true rather than resting on "nothing measured asks otherwise". Acquisition needs roughly 900 declared documents to double what
batten checkcosts, against a ~5 ms process floor. CLOUD-843's whole campaign is 82 gates, 27 of which open more than five files. Parallelising a 5.4 µs read would also have to buy back §6 byte-stability with a deterministic merge — the same bill the parallel walker cannot pay.Bring a number over ~900 documents and the row moves again. That is a threshold, which is what the previous wording lacked.
Why the experiment is shaped this way
ONE rule, ONE module, and only the row's
documentsarray grows. The first draft based its ratios on an arm with no rule at all and read 1.367 at N=16 — almost all of it the fixed cost of having a policy row, which would have been published as a per-document cost it is mostly not. The base carries one document instead, so every fixed term is held constant and acquisition is the only one that moves.Two arms, because the variable and the cost need different instruments — which is
rust.md's own argument for whydocuments_acquiredis a counter at all.document_read_count.rs::one_row_declaring_n_paths_acquires_n_documentspins that the engine acquires once per declared path under exactly the swept shape; a sweep over a variable the engine ignored would still draw a tidy curve. Its neighbour pins the other direction (N rows over one path is one acquisition), so between them the cache is shown to dedup by path without collapsing paths that differ.Where the code lives, and why it is not a
mise-tasks/*.shpolicy/shell-retirement.regorefuses adding an authored shell rule and editing one, both atdenywith no override route and nobypass_env— so the harness could be neither a new shell task nor an edit toperf.sh. It is a Python helper beside an inlinemise.tomltask: the splitreplay.sh/replay-pointers.pyalready uses, and the inline shapesemver,prose-only-checkandpolicy-testwere each forced into for the same reason. The helper carries no#MISE description=, sobash-surface-not-growingdoes not move — asserted bybatten-checkgreen, not by argument.BENCH_METRIC=acquisition-wall-clockkeeps the series off the invocation axis.perf-recordreads that from the environment, so no governed file changes;crates/batten/tests/acquisition_metric.rsasserts the task sets it rather than trusting that it does, because a shared stamp would let a reader plot a 256-document sweep arm beside a--helpinvocation and read the gap as a step change.Deliberately not here
