�� Benchmark: Agent Governance Overhead — Latency and Throughput Analysis

[imran-siddique]

Overview

Measure and document the performance overhead of adding governance to AI agent operations.

What to Measure

• Policy evaluation latency (p50, p95, p99)
• Trust verification overhead per interaction
• Audit logging throughput (events/sec)
• Memory footprint with/without governance
• Governed vs ungoverned agent response times

Deliverable

• Benchmark script in benchmarks/
• Results doc at docs/benchmarks/governance-overhead.md
• Charts showing the numbers

Skills Needed

• Python, basic benchmarking concepts

Hi @imran-siddique , I would like to work on this! Could you assign this to me. Planning to benchmark five metrics as listed. Have already looked and worked around it. Will be happy to push a draft benchmark script pretty soon.
