"""bench.py — find the workload shapes where cuda-fanout actually wins.

The per-process CUDA context init costs ~200 ms regardless of work
(measured: load 0.6 ms, launch 205 ms, kernel 0.1 ms, write 0.1 ms at
N=1000 × 32 B inputs). So GPU wins when total work × ns-per-byte
overtakes that 200 ms ceiling.

Host SHAKE256 (Python hashlib) does ~500 MB/s on this i9-12900K. So:
  break-even bytes total = 200 ms × 500 MB/s ≈ 100 MB

We sweep around that threshold and report where GPU starts winning."""
