Description

Great work!

Leaving this as a note for myself or for anyone who can contribute.

Seeing the IQR and MAD could give us a better idea of intra-library variation. It would be great to see how analytics library execution times spread out in this dataset.

I suspect that the average creeps up with certain libraries due to the population that uses them. For instance, the developers that integrate them may be more skilled, and hence use more feature of the library.

Research direction

No file or test is named in the issue. Start by locating the execution time summary and the dataset aggregation entry point, then check how existing summary statistics are calculated. Done means the summary reports both interquartile range (IQR) and median absolute deviation (MAD) for library execution times, with tests or sample output covering the new values.
