-"""Measure ``_PACK_EPILOGUE`` against the live ida-codemode runtime.
+"""Measure cold installation versus warm calls for typed remote modules.
-Our snippets return one pre-serialised JSON STRING instead of a structure, to
-dodge to_jsonable()'s Python-level walk of the result (a 200-row listing page
-is ~10k small objects). ida-codemode 0.3.2 gave that path a C fast path --
-``serialization.dumps_json`` hands the structure straight to ``json.dumps`` and
-only falls back to the walker for values the encoder rejects -- so the packing
-now costs a double encode (escaping the whole payload as a string literal) to
-avoid a walk that may no longer happen.
-
-This script answers whether packing still pays. Its sibling question, the
-``sys.settrace`` strip, is settled: 0.3.2 deleted the trace hook, the workaround
-measured 0.99x, and it has been removed.
+Historical note: this file used to benchmark ``_PACK_EPILOGUE``. Application
+scripts are no longer strings and packing is gone; the relevant design cost is
+now the one-time content-addressed module installation versus steady-state calls.
