Thermal throttling is going to be part of this mix. Especially on an Air. I can’t even run useful benchmarks on my work laptop. I get purely random results every time. I gave up and created benchmarks I can run in CI.

So the logical fallacy here is that since the Bun version is leaving more cores idle that we can run more copies to get even more throughput. Yes, but actually no. You’ll get more throughput, but not at the multiple you think. The real test of a system is when you redline it for all scenarios.
