Add a differential against iets and record what it found iets (https://github.com/numtide/iets) is a whole Nix client rather than an evaluator, and one of its subcommands walks a jobset the way this tool does. So the question it raises is not whether another evaluator fits under this C++ wrapper but whether the wrapper is needed, which is a different question from the one docs/fix-evaluator.md answered. bench/jobs-root.nix is this tool's discovery root as a function, so `iets eval-jobs --select` can be asked to walk exactly what this tool walks. bench/iets-differential.sh compares the two tools' attribute-to-drvPath maps on real flakes. bench/package-set.nix asks a much larger version of the same question of a package set, where throughput shows. They agree on every drvPath over three flakes and 57,927 nixpkgs attributes, and iets is 4x to 5x faster at less memory on the flake-shaped workload, so the measurement points the opposite way from fix's. docs/iets-evaluator.md records that, and the four things a replacement still cannot do.
