 ### Added
+- **Benchmark Regression CI Optimization** (#1668): Added `benchmark_regression_fast`
+  nox session that excludes the three slowest benchmark suites
+  (`IndexingScalingSuite`, `ContextAssemblyScalingSuite`, `ExecutionThroughputSuite`)
+  from PR regression checks. Added `benchmark_regression` CI job to `ci.yml` using
+  the fast session with a 20-minute timeout. Added full `benchmark_regression` run
+  to the nightly quality workflow. Documented the excluded suites and their timeout
+  characteristics in each benchmark file.
+
 - Wired `StrategyActor` into the real plan execution path: `_get_plan_executor`
   in `plan.py` now resolves the strategy actor via `resolve_strategy_actor()`
   (reading the `actor.default.strategy` config key) instead of always
