Each call to plot_sweep with a new time_src appends a snapshot to the history. This is designed for nightly benchmarks or CI pipelines where you want to track how metrics evolve across commits, releases, or environmental changes. Use clear_history=True on the first snapshot to reset, and clear_cache=True to force re-evaluation. Adding categorical variables to a float sweep creates faceted line plots -- one curve per category, making it easy to compare how each setting modifies the continuous relationship.',
