⚠️ Potential issue | 🟠 Major

Avoid global env var leakage across calls.
Mutating PERF_ENV_VARS in-place makes HF_HUB_OFFLINE/TRANSFORMERS_OFFLINE “sticky” across future invocations (and across threads). Use a per-call copy instead.

✅ Proposed fix (use a local copy)

In `@scripts/performance/utils/executors.py` around lines 109 - 112, The code
mutates the global PERF_ENV_VARS in-place when hf_token is provided, causing
HF_HUB_OFFLINE/TRANSFORMERS_OFFLINE to persist across calls/threads; fix by
creating a per-call copy (e.g., local_env = PERF_ENV_VARS.copy()) inside the
executor before modifying and use local_env for subprocess/env injection instead
of mutating PERF_ENV_VARS; update the branch that checks hf_token to set values
on local_env and ensure any code that previously referenced PERF_ENV_VARS in
this execution uses local_env (referencing PERF_ENV_VARS and hf_token to locate
the change).
