Code Review

This pull request, generated by Scala Steward, updates gRPC dependencies from version 1.77.0 to 1.78.0. The change is straightforward and correct. My review includes a recommendation to plan an upgrade for the related protobuf-java dependency, as the currently used major version series is now end-of-life, which could pose future maintenance and security risks.

[gemini-code-assist]

While updating the gRPC version is good, it's worth noting that the gRPC-java 1.78.0 release notes state that the 3.x series of protobuf-java is now end-of-life (EOL). The gRPC team strongly recommends migrating to the 4.x series (e.g., 4.26.1).

Your project currently uses protobuf-java version 3.25.8 in the benchmark module. To ensure you are using a supported version and to avoid potential future security vulnerabilities or compatibility issues, it would be beneficial to plan a migration to protobuf-java 4.x in a separate pull request.
