Research direction

Start by locating the Python code that formats benchmark output and calculates or displays the geometric mean, then inspect any related tests or output examples. The change is complete when percentage results such as "1% faster" are rendered to 0.1% precision and the relevant tests confirm the new formatting.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Outputs such as "0% slower" or "1% faster" are unnecessarily vague.
Is "1%" 0.5% or 1.5%?
