🏆 Best Performers

1. Transition Features (Warm): 1.76 ns (28,409x faster than target)
2. ADX Features (Cold): 5.78 ns (8,651x faster than target)
3. CUSUM Features (Warm): 17.60 ns (2,841x faster than target)

⚠️ Bottleneck

Adaptive Metrics Pipeline: 75.08 μs (50% over 50μs strict target)

• Root Cause: Sharpe ratio stdev calculation (O(n) vector scan)
• Fix: Cache rolling variance (2-hour task) → estimated 37.5-45μs
• Impact: Low (adaptive updates occur ~5-20x/day, not per-bar)
