Explanation
Issue
#21494requires the unified benchmark suite to cover isolated and end-to-end workloads. The reviewed head uses the existing unified runner and extends its end-to-end coverage with varied generated modules, larger module graphs,realistic-app, andcache-filesystem-modified. The timing data also covers the existing unit and end-to-end benchmark tasks. The issue's later tracking and replacement work is background, not a coding requirement for this pull request.
Full details: Out of Scope Changes check
-
Explanation
The changes stay within benchmark scope. They modify benchmark fixtures, workload generators, runner sharding, timing data, and benchmark-related test typing. These changes support benchmark coverage, workload realism, or execution stability. No unrelated product-code change is established.

Summary
Closes #21494. That PR adds a second runner and many micro-benchmarks for
lib/util/*. A CPU profile of real builds of our benchmark cases shows those utils at under 1% of build time each. The hot spots (JS parser ~20%, resolving, module factory, seal, andFileSystemInfoon warm cache rebuilds) are already covered by the existing runner. So, instead of new unit benchmarks, this PR makes the existing end-to-end cases closer to real projects and adds two:create-tree.mjs(used by 19 cases): modules no longer repeat one body. They cycle through four shapes (classes, destructuring and async code, generators and try/catch, the old body), and all import from one shared helper module.many-modules-esmandmany-modules-commonjs: 75 → 250 modules, so per-module work outweighs fixed startup cost.realistic-app: a small React-style app with lazy routes, feature folders, barrel files, an@alias, CSS modules, JSON, SVG assets, and named imports fromreact,lodash-esanddate-fns.cache-filesystem-modified: the same app with a warm filesystem cache and one component edited before every build, like restarting a dev server after a change. Existing cache cases only measure an unchanged warm build or a cold one.Local walltime (
many-modules-esmfixture, mean of 3 builds in one process):New cases from the local harness:
realistic-apptakes ~650 ms (development) and ~1.8 s (production).cache-filesystem-modifiedtakes ~350 ms and ~1 s, as it restores from the cache. This makes the benchmark shards slower. CodSpeed will also flag shifts on every case that usescreate-tree, because the workload changed, not webpack.What kind of change does this PR introduce?
