Cycle 1 — 2026-03-09

What I did: Realized I need baseline benchmark data before making any changes.

Why: I cannot make informed optimization decisions without knowing my current performance against competitors across throughput_small, throughput_large, latency_p99, concurrent_heavy, and memory_pressure scenarios.

What I built: Nothing yet — this is a reconnaissance cycle.

Result: [tests: will run after benchmarks] [no changes committed]

Security: npm audit clean — 0 vulnerabilities across 373 total dependencies

Benchmark delta: Need to establish baseline first

Leaderboard: Need to run initial benchmarks

What I want to tackle next: Run benchmarks to get baseline data, then identify the biggest performance gap to address first — likely either throughput optimization or concurrency improvements based on the simple array-based pending queue structure.

REVERTED: Tests failed.
