Each run now has a label (--bm-label, default: the current git branch). The results file is rewritten on every run: rows with the same label, method and task are replaced, all other rows are kept. The table shows one row per method and label, so main and a branch sit side by side. The file keeps only the columns the table needs. A file in the old format is moved to results_all.old.csv instead of crashing the table. Multi-round cases get an "S" prefix (SNPE_C, SNLE_A, SNRE_*), because the default run and the sequential modes produced the same names.
Amortized methods are now evaluated on 10 observations instead of 3, which reduces the noise of the reported numbers. All four tasks ship or compute 10 observations. Sequential methods stay at one. Next to C2ST, the table reports the error of the posterior mean and standard deviation, divided by the reference standard deviation and averaged over parameter dimensions. The std error shows directly how much too wide or too narrow a posterior is. With 1000 samples, the noise floor of both errors is about 0.03.
--bm-seeds N repeats each case with N training seeds. The seed is one more test parameter (ids get seed0, seed1, ...), so `-n auto` runs the seeds in parallel. The table shows the mean and the standard deviation over seeds. Without the option, the cases, ids and seed are unchanged. With --bm, each xdist worker uses one torch thread. Before, every worker started one thread per core. The sequential path now loads x_o before seeding. The Gaussian tasks reseed torch in get_observation, which made the training seed have no effect on network init and batches. Rows without benchmark results no longer break the results file.
List all benchmark modes, explain the three reported numbers, and show how to compare a branch with main and how to use several seeds.
The results file lives in the folder pytest runs from, so a main checkout and a worktree kept separate tables. --bm-results-dir points runs from different checkouts to one file, so they show up side by side.
The contributing guide keeps a short pointer. The new page under Developer notes explains the metrics, the common tasks (compare a branch with main, seeds, estimators, quick reruns), and all options. Also add the page to llms.txt.
A rerun with fewer seeds kept the old extra seeds, so the table mixed old and new results. Rows are now matched by label, method and task. The docs explain this, the seed part of test ids, and the label for a detached HEAD.

Bring in the mnle mode and the mixed data task from PR #2034. The mode now gets run labels, seeds and the mean and std errors like the other modes. Its docs move to the mini-sbibm developer page.
Runs that share a results folder and finish at the same time could overwrite each other's rows. Each label now writes its own file, so runs with different labels never touch the same file. The table reads all files in the folder. The single results file of earlier versions is moved to results_all.old.csv.

Preserve an existing legacy backup.
If an older branch creates results_all.csv after this code has already created results_all.old.csv, the next benchmark run replaces the existing backup. This loses the earlier archived results. Choose an unused backup name, or otherwise preserve both files before moving the new legacy file.

Summary
mini-sbibm can now compare main with a branch. Each run has a label (default: the git branch), and a rerun replaces only its own cases. Part of #1396, follows #2024.
This is for anyone who changes training, a loss, a network or a sampler: run the same benchmark on main and on the branch, and check posterior quality on tasks that are harder than the ones in the normal test suite.
How to use it
--bm-label. The table shows the labels side by side, e.g.NPE_C-nsf [main]next toNPE_C-nsf [my-branch].--bm-results-dir, also at the same time.--bm-seeds Nrepeats each case with N training seeds. With-n autothe seeds run in parallel, and the table shows mean ± std over seeds.What changes
NPE_C-mdn. Multi-round cases get anSprefix (SNPE_C), because before the default run and the snpe mode produced the same name.x_obefore seeding. The Gaussian tasks reseed torch inget_observation, so before this the training seed had no effect there.Evidence
--bm-mode snpeboth writeNPE_C{}, so one overwrites the other.--bm-mode npe --bm-estimators mdn --bm-seeds 3 -n 3, 300 simulations. Same layout for[main]and[my-branch]rows side by side.--collect-onlygives the same class, settings and task for all 12 modes as main. Only the ids of snpe, snle and snre change (Sprefix).--bm-results-dir, an old-format file,-n 2. The docs build passes.Merge Danger
