//! Real-kernel comparison benchmark for poly-kv.
//!
//! Compares proveKV's FullyPreparedCompressedIndex against:
//! 1. Naive exact attention (current baseline — sequential dot products)
//! 2. Optimized exact attention (blocked, cache-aware — represents what a
//!    production CPU kernel like candle/llama.cpp would do)
//!
//! Runs at head_dim=64 and head_dim=128, seq_len 2K-32K.
//! Emits JSON receipt with claim boundaries.
//!
//! The optimized baseline uses:
//! - Cache-blocked traversal (64-key blocks matching L1d)
//! - Auto-vectorizable inner loop (contiguous f32 dot product)
//! - Pre-sorted keys for sequential memory access
//! - Top-k via partial sort (not full sort)
//!
//! This is the fairest possible CPU comparison: both sides get release mode,
//! both sides get pre-loaded data, neither side pays for construction.
//! The only question: can compressed-domain scoring beat a tight f32 matmul?
