+A fairly quiet week, with improvements exceeding a small scattering of
+regressions. Memory usage and artifact size held fairly steady across the week,
+with no regressions or improvements.

+
+Small regression in libc compilation, primarily incremental non-doc scenarios.
+Unclear cause but sufficiently limited in scope that further investigation is
+not warranted.
+
+Fix races conditions with `SyntaxContext` decoding [#115082](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/115082) [(Comparison Link)](https://perf.rust-lang.org/compare.html?start=aa5dbee3ebff8703456e8be3b5fb368fc68fe0d1&end=b60e31b673b0d36c50f8e0a3b6f8f077221d983d&stat=instructions:u)

+
+Some small regressions, but this is a correctness fix for parallel compilation
+so warranted. (Parallel compilation is not on here but the fix affects both
+non-parallel and parallel scenarios).

+#### Improvements

+
+> Perf results look good, various small improvements in secondary benchmarks.
+> The real driver was the type-system-chess program I mentioned above, where
+> the walltime and max-rss changes were both about -85% when I measured them
+> locally.
