Bench numbers: stock vs ember all-optimizations, pre/post compat fixes

[NullVoxPopuli-ai-agent]

Three runs on the same machine (--cpu-throttle=8 --count=10, headed; undocked — 74hz monitor, 32.6 GB visible RAM — so the runner rightly refuses to mix these with the ember-1..3 series, and the try-ember-pr workflow needs admin to dispatch):

• ember-agent-stock.json — ember-source 7.3.0-alpha.5
• ember-agent-spike-pre.json — all-optimizations @ 5916d3e8 (spike tip before the ecosystem-compat work)
• ember-agent-spike.json — all-optimizations @ c09efdc8 (synchronous destroy drain, flush-resolved renderSettled, and render settledness reported as edges bridged into a test waiter — no _backburner surface, no pollable render flag; see SPIKE: every rendering-performance lever combined (RFC 957 end state + VM optimizations) emberjs/ember.js#21520, [SPIKE] settled(): await settledness instead of polling for it emberjs/ember-test-helpers#1574, settled() awaits renderSettled() instead of polling the render half limber#2214)

fan-out (single burst)	136.7	146.0	124.1	+9.2%	+15.0%

Reading it:

• Spike vs stock: async benches 83–96% faster, dbmon fps 6.3→13.6 (2.2×), fan-out bursts 29–35% faster. Notably the small sync benches that regressed in the pre run ('1 item, 1k updates', '5% random') are now at or ahead of stock — that regression was the compat gap, not an inherent cost of the spike.
• Post vs pre: post wins 11 of 15; the 4 favoring pre are all within 2% (noise). dbmon is the one large mover (8.9→13.6 fps) and it has been consistent across every run since the edge-based settledness landed — the earlier probe/stub approaches were sampling render state far more often than the edges do.
