- README's "HDF5 Core I/O" table claimed 19ns/2,080µs labeled 308× (real ratio
~109,000×) and a 313ns zero-copy mmap figure — neither traced to any dated
benchmark in BENCHMARKS.md. Replaced the table wholesale with the existing
"vs libhdf5 Summary" figures, relabeled from "h5py/C HDF5" to "libhdf5"
(BENCHMARKS.md never benchmarks against h5py, only libhdf5 directly).
- Added two new Criterion benchmarks to close the coverage gaps that produced
the untraceable numbers: metadata_open_from_disk (I/O-inclusive, fair
clawhdf5-vs-libhdf5 file-open comparison) and metadata_parse_in_memory
(clawhdf5-only, explicitly labeled as excluding I/O) in h5bench_meta.rs;
read_zerocopy_mmap in h5bench_read.rs (forces real page-ins by summing
elements rather than just returning a slice length — the mmap path turns
out to be slower than a plain copy at these sizes, an honest, unflattering
but real result now documented instead of a fabricated 313ns).
- Re-ran the full existing benchmark suite plus the two new ones on a second,
independently administered machine (tank: Ryzen 7 7800X3D) to validate the
numbers before publishing them. 5 of 6 rows landed within ~15% of the
original i7-12650H figures; recorded both in BENCHMARKS.md's new
"Independent Validation" section. README now cites the tank numbers.
- Added a short top-of-file README callout naming both halves of the project
(general-purpose HDF5 library vs. agent memory layer) with links to
BENCHMARKS.md and the Crate Map, so a data-infra reader isn't 60% through
a memory-store pitch before finding the part relevant to them.
- Added one factual, no-names line noting benchmark numbers are being
validated in collaboration with HDF5 Group engineers.
- Fixed the same untraceable "2-300x faster than h5py/C HDF5" / "313 ns"
claims in docs/QUICKSTART.md, one click from the README's own "New here?"
link.

Add features = ["zstd"] to clawhdf5-bench dev-dependency so the
write_2d_chunked_zstd benchmark no longer panics with UnsupportedFilter(32015).
Update BENCHMARKS.md and README.md with measured results from the full
h5bench write suite (2026-06-30, post write-performance improvements):
- Zstd-3 hits 593 MiB/s at 512×512 vs deflate-6's 280 MiB/s (2.12×)
- Zstd-3 hits 330 MiB/s at 128×128 vs deflate-6's 132 MiB/s (2.51×)
- Sequential f64 batch write improved ~8-11% from owned-Vec IO path

- Add the `hnsw` flag (default-on) to the agent feature table and the
fast-deflate/system-zlib/fast-checksum/lz4/zstd/blake3 flags to the format
table.
- Add entity_extract and async_memory to the agent module overview.

Sweep of the docs after the v2.0.0 rename and recent changes:
- Per-crate READMEs (13 files): rename leftover rustyhdf5-*/edgehdf5-*
package names and badges to clawhdf5-*, bump usage versions to 2.1.0.
- README: update stale test badge (417 -> 1500+), workspace stats
(15 crates/72K -> 17 crates/84K), agent crate stats (20.7K/32 modules),
and add the missing clawhdf5-napi and clawhdf5-bench crates to the tree.
- CLAUDE.md: correct the CLI subcommand list (inspect/dump/index/search ->
the actual create/save/search/recall/stats/flush-wal/agents-md/export/snapshot).
No code changes. Verified there are zero todo!()/unimplemented!() macros and
no TODO/FIXME comments in the tree.
