Which release version has/will have the bulk of the performance improvement from the call-by-name conversion?

Last comparison <https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/issues/22608#issuecomment-3286491515|https://github.com/pantsbuild/pants/issues/22608#issuecomment-3286491515>

ok, so if I'm already on 2.28.0 I shouldn't expect too much, but it will be a nice bump.

I believe 2.28 introduced polymorphic rules - which was a step function for perf. The rest of the Get reduction has been linear-ish (fewer Get calls means faster startup). 

The call-by-name improvements are specifically related to startup times though.

If you’re looking for other perf improvements, they’re on a per backend basis

I should have my pathological case up on GitHub Monday.
