# Code Review - Issue: benchmark-stability

## Review Status: APPROVED ✅

**Iteration ID**: 2a469a33
**Reviewer**: Code Review Agent
**Date**: 2026-02-09

## Summary

All changes have been successfully implemented and meet the acceptance criteria. The coder correctly updated all 7 benchmark files with the required Criterion configuration (`sample_size(1000)` and `measurement_time(10s)`) to reduce CV below 10%. No blocking issues found.

---

## Blocking Issues

**None** - No blocking issues identified. The implementation is correct and ready to merge.

---

## Non-Blocking Technical Debt

### SHOULD_FIX Items

None identified. While the architecture document suggested optional parameters (`warm_up_time` and `noise_threshold`) and a Duration import, the PRD only mandates `sample_size(1000)` and `measurement_time(10s)`, which have been correctly implemented.

---

## Suggestions

### 1. Code Style: Duration Import
**Severity**: SUGGESTION
**Location**: All 7 benchmark files
**Current**: Uses fully qualified path `std::time::Duration::from_secs(10)`
**Suggestion**: Add `use std::time::Duration;` import for cleaner code

While the current approach works correctly, adding the import would align with Rust conventions:

```rust
use criterion::{black_box, criterion_group, criterion_main, Criterion};
use std::time::Duration;  // Add this

criterion_group! {
    name = benches;
    config = Criterion::default()
        .sample_size(1000)
        .measurement_time(Duration::from_secs(10));  // Cleaner
    targets = ...
}
```

**Rationale**: Improves code readability and follows Rust conventions for commonly used types.

## Acceptance Criteria Validation

| Criterion | Status | Notes |
|-----------|--------|-------|
| AC4.4: All benchmarks have CV < 10% configuration | ✅ PASS | All 7 files have sample_size(1000) and measurement_time(10s) |
| AC4.2: No test regressions | ✅ PASS | No changes to core functionality |
| M5: Benchmark stability | ✅ PASS | Configuration properly applied |
