#!/usr/bin/env python3 """Albedo TUI Scroll Performance & Low-Memory Benchmark Runner. Verifies the 120Hz (8.333ms frame budget) scroll performance requirement under dense scrollback, active token streaming, realistic viewports (120x40, 180x60), and memory retention caps. Strict Gating Rules: 1. Exact 4 required scenarios: 120x40 settled, 120x40 streaming, 180x60 settled, 180x60 streaming. 2. Frame budget <= 8.333ms at both p95 and p99 for all scenarios. 3. Non-vacuous scrolling: moving frame ratio >= 90%, content change ratio >= 90%, unique offsets >= 100. 4. Retention cap enforcement: retained lines <= 1000, bytes <= 256KB, dropped lines > 0. 5. Bubble Tea renderer emission measured: frames emitted, dispatch rate, throughput, write latency. 6. Provenance: source file SHA-256 digests and git commit recorded. 7. ZERO hardcoded measurement claims in report: all metrics derived from live execution artifacts.
