… hygiene T1's note credited the ~11x Arena gap to "the whole price of the chunked design". It is not: the Arena row never writes to the memory it hands out, so the gap is dominated by the cache-line fills Zane's backpointer write pulls in — a cost any allocator that initializes an object pays, and one a flat arena writing a single field pays identically. The chunk-boundary check is the small remainder. T2's Zane row was read as a 100k-object release loop measuring ~39ns; zm_host_release is empty, so the loop is not in the binary and the figure is the two timestamps. Harness fixes, none of which touch a timed region: - pool_flush orphaned every block on its free lists, leaking ~13.5 MB across a full run. It now returns them. - ar_init pre-faulted 256 MB of its 512 MB mapping where zm_init pre-faults all of it. Harmless today only because the Arena rows never touch their memory; corrected so it stays that way. - game_loop_run reset Zane's arena on the Pool row, which does not use it. - test10 warmed a pool size class that rng() % MAX_BRANCH never allocates. - zm_seg hardcoded the chunk shift as 20 beside a ZM_CHUNK that defines it; both now derive from ZM_CHUNKBITS. Verified clean under -fsanitize=address,undefined: no memory errors, no undefined behaviour, no leaks, all 17 tests. The committed results file and the remaining notes stay valid — no measured row changes.

…ment bug The harness printed an ASCII table that runbench.py re-parsed with two regexes. The text was both the reading copy and the machine format, so neither could change without breaking the other, and the parser was lossy: migrating the committed results exposed T2's title truncated at the `|` inside "[32B x 100k | alloc+shuffle NOT timed]", because the section regex matched non-greedily up to the first pipe. zane_bench.c now emits JSON on stdout and prints nothing else. It carries every per-run sample rather than a precomputed median, so the spread the notes keep citing is checkable rather than asserted. runbench.py renders both benchmark.html and the human-readable zane_bench_results.txt from it; parse_results is gone. The generator is split three ways: template.html holds the page skeleton (editable as HTML), benchmeta.py holds TEST_META and the colour rules, and runbench.py is the driver. --from-file re-renders from the committed JSON; --json PATH renders any results file. The measurement bug: build_tree drew rng() % MAX_BRANCH children, which is zero for seeds 3, 7 and 19 — and at the root that collapses the whole tree. Three of every twenty runs in all five T10 rows tore down a single node instead of four thousand, which is the 22ns minimum standing against a 53us median in the committed results. Every node with budget left now draws at least one child. T10's medians came from the seventeen valid runs and stand; its min and max did not, and are withheld until the suite is run again. Also in T1, an "Arena + one-field init" row: a flat arena writing one field per object, which lands beside Zane rather than beside the pure bump, and so says in data what the corrected note says in prose. T2's Zane row no longer reports a number at all — its release loop is a no-op the compiler deletes, so the row renders as eliminated instead of publishing timer overhead. Naming: the worker thread pool no longer shares the `pool_` prefix with the free-list competitor; pool_round/pool_class lose a Zane prefix they never earned; seven adapter functions that were exact duplicates are gone and the survivors follow one <impl>_<role>_<op> scheme; zbump becomes zm_bump. The pinned measurements are preserved, not re-measured — they were taken on the maintainer's machine pinned to four cores, and an unpinned container run would degrade every note in explanations.txt. Sixty of sixty-one medians are byte-identical after the migration. Verified: zero warnings at -O2 -Wall -Wextra; clean under -fsanitize=address,undefined with no leaks; all 17 tests render with no uncoloured rows.

The old T13 measured a payload-only scan under the same anchor-placement A/B as T14, and its own note conceded the point: "T14 weights it properly." One of its three pairs came in at 0.1%, which it also admitted "would be noise on its own." It is gone, and T14-T17 are now T13-T16 across the harness, the metadata, the notes and the pinned results. Two claims in explanations.txt counted the deleted test's evidence and had to move with it. The header said six A/B measurements favour the global pool; only three of those six were taken by the surviving test, so it now says three. The surviving note opened on "Six measurements in one direction" and now rests on its own three pairs, recording that the retired companion agreed on all of them before it went. T6's forward reference to T15 is renumbered. The pinned numbers go stale for the renumbered tests, which is accepted -- the maintainer is re-running the suite. Verified: zero warnings at -O2 -Wall -Wextra; clean under -fsanitize=address,undefined with no leaks; the emitted test ids are contiguous Test 1..16; results, notes and metadata all carry the same sixteen keys with no orphans on any side; the page renders with no uncoloured rows.

Replaces the migrated pinned measurements with a full run of the current harness, and rewrites all sixteen notes against it. Every quoted figure was checked back against the JSON. T1's new row lands the argument the last two commits made in prose. A flat arena writing one 4-byte field per object costs ~155us against Zane's ~159us -- a 2% gap. Nothing separating them is the chunked design; what separates either from the ~14us pure bump is the cache-line fills that one write pulls across ~4 MB, which every allocator that initializes an object pays. T10 is a clean measurement for the first time. With build_tree fixed, all 20 passes tear down the same 4,000 nodes and the rows hold within 1.0-1.3x. Guest density now costs nothing at all -- the fully guested row is nominally the fastest of the three -- where the note previously claimed ~5% from a spread that was partly degenerate runs. Three findings did not survive the re-run, and the notes now say so rather than restating them: - T4's shuffle penalty. Sequential and shuffled pointer walks now tie (~106us / ~101us) where the old run had shuffled costing ~1.5x. The prefetcher story that reading invited is unsupported. - T15's 6% cost for a runtime size class. It reverses sign here (~237us runtime against ~242us static), so the honest reading is free, not cheap. - T7's erratic malloc. All three rows are steady now; the old run's "slowest pass twice its fastest" did not reproduce. T11 flipped its ordering to Zane, Pool, malloc -- which the previous note had predicted would happen, having called the 9% spread not durable. The per-run samples earn their place in T9: Zane holds ~77us across all 20 passes while malloc climbs ~480us to ~890us and Pool ~81us to ~474us before plateauing, each cycle handing the free list back in a worse order than it found it. The old min/max pair hid that curve entirely. One caveat recorded rather than smoothed over: T12's concurrency penalty is ~7.8x here against ~3x before, and this run's core allocation is not recorded where the previous one was pinned to four cores. The note reads the multiple as an upper bound and keeps only the direction.

The run was taken under WSL2 with no pinning on a CPU with 8 performance cores and 16 efficiency ones, which the notes now record. That changes what T12 measures. Its scan splits into four equal shards and waits for all of them, so a pass runs at the speed of its slowest shard, and nothing keeps a worker off an efficiency core. The 20 passes spread 4.5x: ~72us best, ~194us median, ~322us worst, against ~24us sequential. The best pass is the measurement. At ~2.9x sequential it reproduces the ~3.1x an earlier run recorded with the process pinned to four cores -- the same number to two significant figures -- so the ~7.9x median is placement, and the previous note's guess that workers were contending for fewer cores than they assume was the wrong mechanism. The finding is unchanged either way: distributing a 24us scan costs several times more than doing it. T8 corroborates from the other side. At ~23ms a pass its work-stealing row spreads only 1.28x, because the work amortizes placement and because stealing lets a fast core drain a slow one's queue.

CodeRabbit raised four; each verified against the code before fixing. The median does not exclude warm-up, and the notes header said it did. T1's Zane row is 158,677.5ns over all twenty samples and 152,759ns over the last nineteen, so the sentence claiming the quoted medians come from the settled passes was simply false. What is true is that the median barely moves when the warm-up pass is dropped, which is why it is the statistic quoted; the header now says that, with both figures. A plain `runbench.py` overwrote the pinned results file, while CLAUDE.md called that file the artifact to preserve and gave the plain command as the way to regenerate. A contributor following the documentation would have replaced the pinned samples with their own and left explanations.txt quoting numbers no longer in the JSON. Measuring and pinning are now separate: a plain run renders the page from what it measured and leaves the file alone, and --save is the act of pinning. The page embedded the tests array in an inline script without escaping, and rendered the title through innerHTML while escaping the labels beside it. A title carrying `</script>` closes the element, and titles reach the array from --json. "<" cannot appear outside a JSON string, so it is now escaped at embed time, and title, setup, note and the meta rows go through the same esc() the labels already used. CLAUDE.md still described the pinned run as taken with the process pinned to four cores. It was not: unpinned under WSL2 on a hybrid CPU, which is the whole reason T12 spreads 4.5x. explanations.txt was corrected when the run landed and this file was missed -- the drift this repo's own notes warn about. Verified: zero warnings at -O2 -Wall -Wextra; clean under -fsanitize=address,undefined with no leaks; ids contiguous Test 1..16; the pinned JSON and its reading copy are byte-identical to before these fixes; the escaping change proven to neutralise a `</script>` title.

I found one remaining correctness issue. High — Distribute the remaining node budget among sibling subtrees, or build the tree iteratively. This change is necessary for T10 to measure the intended tree teardown topology. 🐇🔍 ✏️ Learnings added
✅ Action performedReview finished.
|
CodeRabbit caught this and it is right. My earlier fix to build_tree removed the only thing that terminated a subtree: every node with budget left now drew at least one child, so the first child's recursion consumed the whole remaining budget and each later sibling slot was set to NULL while nchildren still counted it. Measured on the committed code, all three sampled seeds produced 4,000 nodes at depth 3,999 with zero branch points and ~8,000 NULL child slots. T10 was tearing down a linked list. That is worse than the bug it replaced. Before, three of twenty runs built a single node and seventeen built a real tree; after, all twenty built a chain. build_tree now takes a subtree size rather than sharing one counter, and splits the remainder among its children so each gets at least one node. All twenty seeds build exactly 4,000 nodes with no NULL slots, at depth 20-26 with ~1,070 branch points and ~2,230 leaves. The committed T10 figures measured the chain, so they carry a provenance_note and the note now reads the ratios rather than the absolutes. The cross-allocator comparison survives, every row having run on the same shape: malloc ~2.4x, Pool tied, both reproduced on the corrected topology. The guest-density reading does not survive. The chain put the fully guested row nominally fastest; on a real tree the same check puts it a few percent behind, which is what the run before the spine bug had reported at ~5%. Verified: zero warnings at -O2 -Wall -Wextra; clean under -fsanitize=address,undefined with no leaks; 16 tests, ids contiguous; topology asserted across all twenty seeds.

Both from CodeRabbit's second pass, both verified before fixing. The pinned results file was opened with "w", which truncates it before json.dump has written anything. An interrupt or a serialization failure would leave the one file CLAUDE.md calls the artifact to preserve invalid, and --from-file unable to load it. pin_results now serializes to a temporary file beside it and renames only after the write closes cleanly, removing the temporary on any failure. Tested by forcing a failure mid-serialization: the committed file comes back byte-identical and no temporary is left behind. The second is the mistake this whole change set exists to correct, built into the tool. A run without --save renders fresh measurements, but the render still loaded explanations.txt unconditionally -- and those notes quote the pinned run's figures to the tenth of a microsecond. The page would have shown new bars under prose describing different numbers. Rendering now knows whether the measurements in hand are the pinned ones: --from-file, --save, and --json pointed at the committed file are; a plain run and any other file are not. When they are not, the driver says so on stdout, the reading copy carries a banner, and each note is prefaced in the page with a line naming whose run it describes. The notes stay available, because they are still the best reading of the design -- they just no longer claim to be about numbers they are not. Verified: the pinned render carries no such flags and leaves both derived files byte-identical to the committed ones.

The pinned page is consistent. It has 16 entries, all notes are marked pinned, and the Test 10 chain-topology qualification is present. Commit I found one remaining issue. Moderate — Preserve the existing target mode, or set the intended mode, on the temporary file before 🧠 Learnings used
|
mkstemp creates 0600 and os.replace carries that mode onto the target, so --save silently turned zane_bench_results.json from 0644 into owner-only. Git records only the executable bit, so the change is invisible to git status and to reviewers -- it had in fact already happened in my working tree, from the call I made to verify the atomic write, and every other file in bench/ is 0644. pin_results now reads the target's mode and applies it to the temporary file before the rename, falling back to the umask default when the target does not exist yet -- which is what a plain open() would have produced. Verified across 0644, 0600 and 0664 targets, and on a missing target. The atomicity guarantee is unchanged: a failure mid-serialization still leaves the artifact byte-identical with no temporary left behind.

Reject --save with an external JSON source.
--json PATH --save loads PATH but never calls pin_results. Lines 338-339 still mark that document as pinned. The generated text and HTML can then attach committed explanations to unrelated measurements without the stale-note warning.
Allow --save only for a fresh benchmark run, or pin the loaded document before setting notes_pinned.

Started as a question about what T1 measures and turned into a rework of
bench/. Nine commits, each self-contained.Two measurement bugs
build_treedid not build a tree. It drewrng() % MAX_BRANCHchildren, which is zero for seeds 3, 7 and 19 — and at the root that collapses the whole tree, so 3 of every 20 runs in all five T10 rows tore down one node instead of four thousand. Visible in the committed results the whole time as a 22 ns minimum against a 53 µs median.The first attempt at this made it worse and CodeRabbit caught it: guaranteeing every node a child removed the only thing that terminated a subtree, so the first child's recursion ate the entire budget and every later sibling was
NULL— a 4,000-node chain of depth 3,999 with zero branch points.build_treenow takes a subtree size instead of sharing one counter and splits the remainder among its children. Asserted on all twenty seeds: exactly 4,000 nodes, noNULLslots, depth 20–26, ~1,070 branch points.T2's Zane row reported timer overhead as a measurement.
zm_host_releaseis an empty function, so at-O2the compiler deletes the 100k-iteration loop outright and the ~39 ns left between the two timestamps is the timestamps. The row now carries"eliminated": trueand renders as "no-op — loop eliminated" rather than publishing a number.T1 was attributing its own gap to the wrong thing
The note credited the ~11× Arena gap to "the whole price of the chunked design". Measured on this branch, the chunk-boundary check is ~8% of it; the rest is the cache-line fills the backpointer write pulls across 4 MB, which any allocator that initializes an object pays.
A new "Arena + one-field init" row says it in data instead of prose. A flat arena writing one 4-byte field per object costs 155 µs against Zane's 159 µs — a 2% gap. Nothing separating those two is Zane's design.
Pipeline
The harness printed an ASCII table that
runbench.pyre-parsed with two regexes, so the text was both the reading copy and the machine format and neither could change. The parser was also lossy: migrating the old results exposed T2's title truncated at the|inside[32B x 100k | alloc+shuffle NOT timed], because the section regex matched non-greedily to the first pipe.zane_bench.cnow emits JSON on stdout and prints nothing else, carrying every per-run sample rather than a precomputed median.parse_resultsis gone. The generator is split three ways —template.html(skeleton, editable as HTML),benchmeta.py(TEST_META+ colours),runbench.py(driver). Measuring and pinning are separate: a plain run renders from what it measured and leaves the committed JSON alone,--savepins.Findings that did not survive re-measurement
Recorded as retired rather than restated:
T11 also flipped its ordering to Zane, Pool, malloc — which the previous note had predicted, having called the 9% spread not durable.
What the per-run samples bought
T9 is the payoff. Zane holds ~77 µs across all twenty passes while malloc climbs 480→890 µs and Pool 81→474 µs before plateauing, each cycle handing the free list back in a worse order than it found it. The old min/max pair hid that curve completely.
And T12's 4.5× spread turned out to be legible rather than noisy. The scan waits on its slowest shard, and the host is a hybrid CPU (8 P-cores, 16 E-cores) with nothing pinning the workers. Its best pass is 2.9× sequential, against the 3.05× an earlier pinned run measured — the same number, so the 7.9× median is core placement, not the cost of distributing.
Also
pool_flushleaked 13.5 MB across a full run by orphaning its free lists. Verified the fix doesn't move the Pool rows (same-machine A/B: 465 vs 435 µs).ar_initpre-faulted 256 MB of a 512 MB mapping — harmless only because the Arena rows never touch their memory, which is exactly the assumption T1 turned out to rest on.<at embed time and runs JSON-derived text throughesc(), so a title from--jsoncannot close the inline script.pool_with the free-list competitor; seven adapter functions were exact duplicates and are gone; survivors follow oneimpl_role_opscheme.Verification

The committed measurements are a real full run (WSL2, unpinned, hybrid CPU — recorded in the provenance header), and the maintainer has said they won't re-run. T10's absolutes are the exception: they were taken while
build_treeproduced the chain, so that test carries aprovenance_noteand its reading now leans on the cross-allocator ratios, which held on the corrected topology, rather than on the absolute figures.runbench.pyprints that note on every render. Everything else is unaffected —build_treeis used only by T10.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
