+//! Latency benchmark for the IS-060 PR-2 datamarking transform.
+//!
+//! Per `docs/architecture/SPOTLIGHTING_INDIRECT_INJECTION.md` §3.5 the
+//! transform's hard cap is **≤ 1 ms p99 per zone** at the regex-only
+//! baseline. This bench measures three realistic zone shapes and
+//! prints p99 so the PR description can quote the headline figure.
+//!
+//! Measured shapes:
+//!
+//!   * `small_zone` — a short BIPIA Email-QA-like span (~ 200 B). The
+//!     common shape for indirect-injection scenarios.
+//!   * `medium_zone` — a BIPIA Table-QA span (~ 1.5 KB). The shape
+//!     that motivates spotlighting (long content dilutes ML
+//!     attention).
+//!   * `large_zone` — a 16 KB synthetic RAG snippet to validate the
+//!     transform stays O(n) without surprising memory churn.
+//!
+//! Each shape is benchmarked twice: with `MarkerStrategy::Fixed` for
+//! repeatability and with `MarkerStrategy::Randomized` to confirm the
+//! random sampling does not blow the budget.
