118+ Apple M4 Pro, 48GB RAM, macOS 15. hyperfine 5 runs + 2 warmup.
119+ All times in milliseconds. These are ** cold start** measurements (process
120+ launch to exit) — languages with heavy runtimes (JVM, V8) pay startup cost.

145+ CW wins vs Java: 20/20, vs Python: 18/20, vs Ruby: 20/20, vs Node: 20/20.
146+
147+ \* Java times are dominated by JVM startup (~ 20ms). Warm JVM execution
148+ is significantly faster. C/Zig/TinyGo are native-compiled (AOT) baselines.
149+
150+ Note: gc_stress Zig value (414.6ms) omitted — Zig benchmark uses
151+ ` std.AutoArrayHashMap ` which is not comparable to GC-managed collections.
