API & RT workloads

8 application-integration shapes driven through libslang: RT programs, session cost, module graphs, reflection, per-variant specialization.

Compiler microbenchmarks

33 workloads, one compiler pass each — parse → sema → IR → specialization → backends.

Memory footprint

peak RSS per workload and createGlobalSession deltas — see shader-slang/slang#9817 / #12113.

Complexity sweeps

Compile time vs workload size N — scaling curves and per-pass growth attribution; every archived sweep on one page.
