Audit found 4 of 10 iterations citing it1 and 4 carrying stale claims the
measurement contradicts.
- 05: framing was contradicted, not merely incomplete. Its goal expected a
gradient to detect ("back-pressure before the cliff"); there is no cliff
— SIGKILL with swap off, exit 0 with swap on, and read latency STEPS
(1us -> 487us) rather than departing. Heading and goal rewritten; the
measurement makes the goal stronger, not weaker
- 05: budget must be bytes — 3.3x footprint spread — with headroom for
index doublings, else it fires during a rehash
- 05: new goal — eviction policy QUALITY is decisive, since getting the
resident set wrong costs 273x, not a few percent
- 06: its revival question now has a reference point. 273x is the KERNEL
SWAP path; `resident: keys` preads via page cache and must beat it. This
file revives only if 5c/5d lands near 273x rather than well below
- 04: write path is not where pressure bites (append ~1%, read 273x), so
the io_uring question that matters is iteration 2's deferred read-path
one, not group-commit
- 00-story: problem statement asserted the store "refuses the insert
rather than dying". Corrected in place — a banner above it was not
enough, a skimmer never reaches it
- residency spec: "swap thrash and the OOM killer" named exits that were
not measured; replaced with silence-or-a-corpse
