+# Performance testing
+
+Run the benchmark suite with:
+
+```sh
+composer run-script test-performance
+```
+
+The manually dispatched **PHP Performance Tests** workflow tests PHP 8.1–8.5
+on Ubuntu. It enables OPcache and tracing JIT explicitly:
+
+```ini
+opcache.enable_cli=1
+opcache.jit=tracing
+opcache.jit_buffer_size=256M
+```
+
+For local benchmarks, put these settings in the CLI `php.ini` used by both
+PHPUnit and its child PHP processes. Disable Xdebug and other coverage drivers
+when benchmarking. The workflow uses `coverage: none` and verifies that OPcache
+and tracing JIT are active before running tests.
+
+Record the PHP version, operating system, JIT mode, and coverage configuration
+when comparing timings. Results using tracing JIT should not be treated as
+directly comparable to results collected with a different JIT mode.
+
+## Why tracing JIT is explicit
+
+[Issue #92](https://github.com/okapi-web/php-aop/issues/92) tracks a PHP JIT
+compiler crash encountered during PHPUnit test discovery. `setup-php` supplies
+`opcache.jit=1235` by default; enabling CLI OPcache with coverage disabled
+activates that mode, which compiles hot functions. Tracing JIT (`1254`) uses
+a different compilation mode.
+
+The crash was reproduced with PHP 8.5.10 on Linux and Windows. In a PHP 8.5.10
+debug build under WSL, the debugger identified
+`SebastianBergmann\Exporter\Exporter::recursiveExport()` as the function being
+compiled. The engine failed the `count == 1` assertion in `ir_fix_bb_order()`
+at `ext/opcache/jit/ir/ir_gcm.c:944`. PHPUnit calls this exporter while formatting
+data-provider arguments, before executing the benchmarks.
+
+An exporter-only reproduction also fails without loading PHPUnit or AOP.
+`sebastian/exporter` is a development dependency here, not a runtime dependency
+of the library. This identifies the observed crash; it does not establish that
+all application code is unaffected by the underlying PHP engine bug.
+
+Tracing JIT avoids the observed crash while retaining JIT and OPcache for the
+library and benchmarks. This is a test-workflow workaround, not a PHP engine
+fix or a requirement for consumers to disable JIT. No application configuration
+is changed by the library.
