Similar to our metric benchmarks, this passed option should be allocated outside of the evaluation loop. Otherwise, we are measuring the inefficient misuse of the API.

This is the whole point of the benchmark is to show that such usage introduces a heap allocation. I find it is too easy to use the API in an inefficient way,

I think that it would be better if the user would not need to preallocate instrumentation version in order not introduce a heap allocation.

It would be better if "strightforward" usage (like inlining options) would not introduce performance overhead. I prefer to have an API which makes writing inefficient code harder. At the same time the most straightforward usage should be performant.

Maybe I should add a comment like: "Showcase that not pre-allocating the options slice causes a heap allocation introduced by the compiler"?

If that is the case, then this seems like a re-hash of the already concluded extensive conversation about how we handle configuration:

Additionally, since we have already discussed this specific detail for the metric signal12 extensively, unless there are new developments, I would prefer to not have the same discussion again. Especially since there is are now 2 stable signals that have set our precedence and a documented policy.

I am fine using options for things bootstrapping the SDK (creating exporters, providers, processors).

However, I find that using options on code that may be on the hot-path makes it too easy for the callers to write inefficient code. Take notice that log.Record already diverges from these guidelines. Maybe, we should work on an alternate guideline for handling configuration for code that we asses that may be on the hot-path (e.g. when recording a value)?

I also think that there is very low probability that we would need to create logger provider options on the fly in the bridges. If it would occur, we can always create a new API.

I am closing this PR and creating a new issue. Thank you for your insight.
