+# Performance benchmarks
+
+Repeatable local measurements for parse, bulk export, and search hot paths.
+
+## Run locally
+
+```bash
+pip install -r requirements-dev.txt
+pytest tests/benchmarks/ --benchmark-only -o addopts= -v
+```
+
+## Memory check
+
+```bash
+pytest tests/benchmarks/test_parse_memory.py -v
+```
+
+The memory test also runs as part of the normal `pytest` suite (timing benchmarks are skipped via `--benchmark-skip` in `pyproject.toml`).
+
+## Scenarios
+
+| Group | What |
+|-------|------|
+| parse | `parse_session` on 10 / 500 / 5000+ line JSONL |
+| export | `run_bulk_export` over 10 / 50 / 100 sessions |
+| search | `GET /api/search` over a 50-session synthetic corpus |
+
+Large JSONL files (5000+ lines) are generated at test session scope under pytest's temp directory — not committed to git.
+
+## CI
+
+The `benchmarks` workflow job uploads `benchmark-results.json` as a downloadable artifact. There is no regression gate yet.
+
+## Refresh baselines
+
+After intentional performance work, copy key means from a local run into `baselines.json` with a date and machine note. This file is informational only; CI does not compare against it.
