Benchmarking Notes

When measuring performance in prototyping mode, note that hardware-level metrics (temperature, wattage, utilization) may not be accurate due to CUDA-level optimizations. Use application-level metrics like iterations per second for reliable comparisons. For accurate hardware metrics, use production mode instances.
