"""
Benchmark: MLX GPU vs Qiskit CPU quantum circuit simulation.

Measures wall-clock time for:
  - Single circuit execution (varying qubit counts)
  - Batch execution (100 circuits on GPU vs 100 sequential on CPU)
  - Gate-heavy circuits (many gates per qubit)

All times include evaluation / synchronization so they reflect true latency.
