Is the hardware guaranteed to be the same across benchmark runs? I have no idea how GH actions runners are chosen/provisioned. |

Probably absolutely not. All I know the default runners are some Azure VMs. |

Timing
cargo runmeans also timing the build if one doesn't exist.This splits the benchmark CI to build first, then just time the compiled binary.
A follow-up could be to use https://github.com/sharkdp/hyperfine so the benchmark is run a couple of times, but then you'd need to take into account how many times Hyperfine decides to run the benchmark, which is not something I want to implement in Bash math.
I adjusted the baseline duration accordingly in this PR.
