Research direction

Start by reproducing the warnings with Julia 1.12 using using BenchmarkTools and @benchmark sleep(0.000). Rerun with julia --depwarn=error to obtain a stack trace, then trace the affected BenchmarkTools bindings and determine which tests cover them. Done means the reported deprecation warnings no longer appear for this reproduction.
