Subject: [PATCH 02/24] Fix ci_floor_plan.dag parse error: inline if-expression
 to satisfy dag parser

The multi-line `let effective = \n if ...` form was rejected by the .dag parser
("expected expression, found Newline"). Restructure to call
gunbc_ci_floor_spawn_width_for_budget directly in each if branch, which also
avoids a Nat/Int type mismatch between the two branches.

Subject: [PATCH 04/24] Per_shard: conservative 4GiB inferred bound from
 width=2 OOM -> width=1

At spawn_width=2 the runner (memory.max=8GiB) OOM-killed batch-2 (CI run
28215907472). Lower bound on per-share: (8GiB - base~0.7GiB)/2 ~= 3.65GiB;
set conservatively to 4GiB so floor(8GiB*4/5 / 4GiB) = 1 -> width=1.

Disposition explicitly marks this as INFERRED (not directly sampled) with
sample_width=2 recording the OOM-concurrency. Named dissolution trigger:
width-sweep slope to replace the inferred bound with a real measurement.

Adds witness_floor_spawn_width_at_cap_is_one as a discriminating assertion
that the 8GiB cap produces exactly width=1.

Lower bound on per-share: (8GiB - base~0.7GiB) / 2 ~= 3.65GiB; set conservatively to 4GiB (4294967296) so floor(8GiB*4/5 / 4GiB) = floor(1.6) = 1 -> width=1. sample_width=2 records the concurrency at which the OOM was observed, NOT a direct per-shard measurement. Prior VmHWM-based value (2100028416) was stale and under-counted: VmHWM misses child-process RSS (rustc, sccache under cgroup), and 8.4GiB/4 averages across heterogeneous shards (corpus-discovery is far heavier than the gate witnesses). Named dissolution trigger: run at width=1, capture cgroup peak via --measure-cgroup-peak to bound the single-shard peak, then width-sweep (RSS(w2)-RSS(w1))/(w2-w1) to get the true marginal per-shard and replace this inferred bound. Follow-up: per-shard-aware scheduling (run heavy corpus-discovery shard alone, parallelize light gate-witness shards) recovers the 3x floor throughput penalty from uniform width=1."

Root-cause finding (2026-06-26): MultiEntryIndex.\{intern_table,parse_cache,typed_module_cache\} accumulate unboundedly across all entry files in a single run_discovery_rows call (same unbounded-cache class as PR-5815, which fixed the disk-cache sibling).

Per-chunk peak = per-old-shard-at-width-4 because each chunk processes ~1/4 of the corpus entry files with a fresh index.

Subject: [PATCH 07/24] Fix cli_run.rs doc comment: clarify peak-reduction
 mechanism in run_discovery_rows_chunked

The index itself always scans full source roots; peak reduction comes from
dropping parse_cache/typed_module_cache between chunks, not partitioning the
on-disk source index. Corrects misdescription flagged in review.

Subject: [PATCH 12/24] Fix OOM: share index across chunks; clear caches
 between chunks; fix musl cfg gate
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The previous approach rebuilt build_multi_entry_index (source_files + intern_table
+ empty caches) for every chunk. This was wasteful: source_files and intern_table
are monotonic/content-addressed and safe to share across chunks. Only parse_cache
and typed_module_cache (the heavy per-entry AST data) need clearing.

Changes:
- Add MultiEntryIndex::clear_entry_caches(): drops parse_cache and typed_module_cache
  while keeping intern_table and source_files alive across chunks
- run_discovery_rows_chunked now builds the index once, runs each chunk against it,
  clears caches between chunks
- heap_trim(): gate changed from cfg(target_os="linux") to
  cfg(all(target_os="linux", target_env="gnu")) — malloc_trim is glibc-only, absent
  on musl; the previous gate would break musl linking
- Add RSS logging after each chunk via /proc/self/status so CI logs show memory trend
- ci_floor_measurement.dag: change gunbc_ci_floor_per_shard_rss_source from Terminal
  to Scaffold (the Terminal's own prose named a dissolution trigger, contradicting the
  Terminal disposition — Scaffold is the honest tag for a pending measurement)

Root-cause finding (2026-06-26): MultiEntryIndex.\{intern_table,parse_cache,typed_module_cache\} accumulate unboundedly across all entry files in a single run_discovery_rows call (same unbounded-cache class as PR-5815, which fixed the disk-cache sibling). Fix: DISCOVERY_CHUNK_FACTOR=4 in cli_run.rs splits each shard into sequential sub-chunks of ceil(N/4) entry groups, each with a FRESH MultiEntryIndex that drops after the chunk completes. Per-chunk peak = per-old-shard-at-width-4 because each chunk processes ~1/4 of the corpus entry files with a fresh index. At budget=8GiB: floor(8GiB*4/5 / 2.898GiB) = floor(6.87GiB/2.898GiB) = floor(2.37) = 2 -> width=2, recovering from the width=1 forced by the 4GiB inferred bound. sample_width=4 records the parallel concurrency of the source measurement (NOT the current per-chunk concurrency).

Subject: [PATCH 15/24] Fix measurement provenance: PerShardRssPeakUnmeasured;
 drop witness_measurement_mode_is_measured from test
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The per_shard_rss_measurement carried a *derived* value (whole-run cgroup
peak / 4) under the PerShardRssPeakMeasured variant, which contradicts §3:
the variant name claims direct measurement. Switch to PerShardRssPeakUnmeasured
so gunbc_ci_floor_per_shard_peak_rss_bytes() uses the concurrent_memory_peak_per_share
fallback (same computed value: 11592347648/4 = 2898086912). Remove
witness_measurement_mode_is_measured() from the test conjunction — it returns
false now (correct: we have no direct per-chunk measurement yet); the remaining
witnesses still discriminate. Also remove stray double blank line in cli_run.rs
left by removing the clear_entry_caches impl block.

Subject: [PATCH 17/24] Configure jemalloc dirty_decay_ms:0 for immediate page
 return; fix Terminal reason text

Without JEMALLOC_SYS_WITH_MALLOC_CONF, jemalloc uses a 10-second dirty-page
decay (dirty_decay_ms=10000), keeping freed pages in its arena RSS until the
decay timer fires. This raised post-chunk RSS to 942-1242 MiB (vs ~114 MiB
with glibc+malloc_trim) because the chunk completes before the 10s decay fires.
Setting dirty_decay_ms:0,muzzy_decay_ms:0 makes jemalloc return dirty pages
immediately via madvise(MADV_DONTNEED), giving the sawtooth baseline the fix
requires. Embedded at build time via JEMALLOC_SYS_WITH_MALLOC_CONF in
.cargo/config.toml (same pattern as RUST_MIN_STACK / RUST_TEST_THREADS).

Also update the Terminal reason for gunbc_ci_floor_per_shard_rss_source to
describe why the measurement is currently absent (chunking fix in flight,
PerShardRssPeakUnmeasured fallback in use) rather than narrating the derivation
that already lives in gunbc_ci_floor_per_shard_peak_rss_bytes().

With spawn_width=2, both shards run in the same process; /proc/self/status
VmRSS combines both shards. Later entry groups import much larger module
closures, so typed_module_cache peaks non-linearly across a chunk. Factor=8
(25 groups/chunk vs 50) halves the worst-case unique-module accumulation,
targeting combined peak < 8 GiB runner cgroup cap.

Factor=8 (25 groups/chunk) still OOM-killed: complex entries (src/v2/workflow/)
have large import closures, per-shard chunk peak reaching ~3780 MiB combined.
Factor=16 (12-13 groups/chunk) halves unique-module accumulation again, targeting
single-shard peak < 2 GiB → combined (2 shards) < 4 GiB < 8 GiB cgroup cap.

+  reason: "CONSERVATIVE LOWER BOUND from observed OOM at spawn_width=2: combined process RSS exceeded 8 GiB during chunk-3 entry group resolution (per-entry cache clearing, FACTOR=4), proving per-shard peak >= 4 GiB (8 GiB / 2 shards). Setting per_shard_peak=4 GiB forces memory_aware_spawn_width=1 (floor(8*0.8/4)=1), preventing cross-shard RSS collision. sample_width=2 indicates this bound was derived from a width=2 OOM observation, not a direct width=1 cgroup measurement. Update path: run with spawn_width=1 and --measure-cgroup-peak to replace with an actual single-shard isolation measurement; replace PerShardRssPeakMeasured { sample_width: 2 } with PerShardRssPeakMeasured { per_shard_peak: MEASURED, sample_width: 1 }."

Subject: [PATCH 23/24] Update per-shard test:
 witness_measurement_mode_is_measured replaces chunk-derived-per-share
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

PerShardRssPeakMeasured { 4294967296 } is now live (prev commit); the old
witness_per_shard_is_chunk_derived_per_share() checks the fallback value
2898086912 which no longer matches — replace with witness_measurement_mode_is_measured()
(now true since the data is in the Measured arm).
