…s their results The v0.4-preview binary embeds one hand-written kernel per ClickBench query (crates/gravity/backend/irprobe/src/q00.rs ... q36.rs), plan matchers named after the benchmark queries, and a cross-query cache of filter verdicts that makes the hot runs replay the answer of the previous run without touching data.
