Well if i make the simplex iteration 20% faster what does do that performance and any terms performance of my mixed-integer linear programming solver one might implement in the framework. Due to parallelism and shared state the answer is non trivial. Let's say you want to people to cooperate in writing such a solver with payout proportional to speed up the solver got over a certain family of problems then accurate estimates how much contribution a new component has for the performance would be really helpful and would be an alternative having big companies bank roll closed source solver development.

Deep learning is uterly irrelevant for the famework but it is a heuristic that could be employed ...
