+# Hackable Diffusion Benchmarks
+
+This directory contains scripts to verify the performance optimizations and numerical fidelity of the library.
+
+## Contents
+- `run_benchmarks.py`: Comprehensive performance suite for Attention, RMSNorm, and Core Blocks.
+- `verify_fidelity.py`: Checks numerical equivalence between optimized and baseline implementations.
+
+## Running Benchmarks
+
+To run the full suite:
+```bash
+python3 -m third_party.py.hackable_diffusion.benchmarks.run_benchmarks
+```
+
+## Running Fidelity Checks
+```bash
+python3 -m third_party.py.hackable_diffusion.benchmarks.verify_fidelity
+```
+
+## Optimization Notes
+Current optimizations focus on:
+1. XLA-native Flash Attention via `jax.nn.dot_product_attention`.
+2. Fused RMSNorm kernels using `jax.lax.rsqrt`.
+3. Redundancy elimination in conditioning modulation logic.
