gp-time-now-hot — measured, still hint
Status
hint. Wall-clock JSONL: gp-time-now-hot.jsonl. Not corpus-triaged. The 2026-10-22 corpus verdict does not cover this slug.
Measurement
time.Now every iteration versus one sample. This is not the removed time.Parse rule.
| role | case | median_ms | ops | ratio |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| after | sample_once | 0.078625 | 100000 | 1 |
| before | sample_each_iter | 3.337792 | 100000 | 42.452 |
go1.27.3, 2026-10-23. Warm 3, median of 9.
After samples once and does not read the clock inside the loop. Code that needs a fresh timestamp every pass has nothing to hoist. Default stays hint. This ratio is not a general speedup.
Unblock
Do not set the default to error from this file alone. A changing input, a cold path, or another ABI can erase the difference. Corpus triage is still required before any default change.
