Migrating from the Modin DataFrame platform

BenchBox no longer supports the modin and modin-df platform selectors. No published Modin release supports the pandas 3 dependency required by BenchBox’s current DataFrame update.

Use pandas-df when you need pandas-compatible, single-process execution:

uv add benchbox --extra pandas
uv run benchbox run --platform pandas-df --benchmark tpch --scale 0.1

Use dask-df when you need distributed DataFrame execution:

uv add benchbox --extra dask
uv run benchbox run --platform dask-df --benchmark tpch --scale 0.1

Existing commands that select modin or modin-df now fail with a migration message naming these replacements. Remove the modin or dataframe-modin extra from project dependency declarations before updating BenchBox.
