Original: Benchmark an AI Agent Migration Without Believing One Speedup Number

Short summary

A single speedup number cannot validate an AI agent migration. Build a paired workload from real redacted tasks, stratify by repo size, language, context, and task type, then run old and new systems against pinned commits in isolated workspaces. Report median and tail latency, success rate, regressions, human rework, tokens, retries, and total cost with confidence intervals. Use a predeclared acceptance rule so the benchmark drives the decision rather than decorating one already made.

  • Build paired workloads from real tasks stratified by repo size, language, and context
  • Report median/tail latency, success, regressions, rework, cost, and confidence intervals
  • Use predeclared acceptance rules to make the benchmark decision-reproducible

Generated with AI, which can make mistakes.

Is this a good recommendation for you?
