Ledger Backends Benchmark

Purpose

Compare Ledger performance across backends: MemLedger (pure Go), SQLLedger (pglike/SQLite), and the HTTP/JSON API layer. This quantifies the cost of each abstraction level so users can make informed choices between embedding go-luca as a library or running it as a service.

Key questions:

• How fast is MemLedger vs SQLLedger for core operations?
• What is the per-call overhead of the HTTP/JSON API layer?
• How does overhead scale with pre-loaded data volume?
