4a070d8a14 Phase 5 E4-1: Free Wrapper ENV Snapshot (+3.51% GO, ADOPTED)
Target: Consolidate free wrapper TLS reads (2→1)
- free() is 25.26% self% (top hot spot)
- Strategy: Apply E1 success pattern (ENV snapshot) to free path

Implementation:
- ENV gate: HAKMEM_FREE_WRAPPER_ENV_SNAPSHOT=0/1 (default 0)
- core/box/free_wrapper_env_snapshot_box.{h,c}: New box
  - Consolidates 2 TLS reads → 1 TLS read (50% reduction)
  - Reduces 4 branches → 3 branches (25% reduction)
  - Lazy init with probe window (bench_profile putenv sync)
- core/box/hak_wrappers.inc.h: Integration in free() wrapper
- Makefile: Add free_wrapper_env_snapshot_box.o to all targets

A/B Test Results (Mixed, 10-run, 20M iters):
- Baseline (SNAPSHOT=0): 45.35M ops/s (mean), 45.31M ops/s (median)
- Optimized (SNAPSHOT=1): 46.94M ops/s (mean), 47.15M ops/s (median)
- Improvement: +3.51% mean, +4.07% median

Decision: GO (+3.51% >= +1.0% threshold)
- Exceeded conservative estimate (+1.5% → +3.51%)
- Similar efficiency to E1 (+3.92%)
- Health check: PASS (all profiles)
- Action: PROMOTED to MIXED_TINYV3_C7_SAFE preset

Phase 5 Cumulative:
- E1 (ENV Snapshot): +3.92%
- E4-1 (Free Wrapper Snapshot): +3.51%
- Total Phase 4-5: ~+7.5%

E3-4 Correction:
- Phase 4 E3-4 (ENV Constructor Init): NO-GO / FROZEN
- Initial A/B showed +4.75%, but investigation revealed:
  - Branch prediction hint mismatch (UNLIKELY with always-true)
  - Retest confirmed -1.78% regression
  - Root cause: __builtin_expect(..., 0) with ctor_mode==1
- Decision: Freeze as research box (default OFF)
- Learning: Branch hints need careful tuning, TLS consolidation safer

Deliverables:
- docs/analysis/PHASE5_E4_FREE_GATE_OPTIMIZATION_1_DESIGN.md
- docs/analysis/PHASE5_E4_1_FREE_WRAPPER_ENV_SNAPSHOT_NEXT_INSTRUCTIONS.md
- docs/analysis/PHASE5_E4_2_MALLOC_WRAPPER_ENV_SNAPSHOT_NEXT_INSTRUCTIONS.md (next)
- docs/analysis/PHASE5_POST_E1_NEXT_INSTRUCTIONS.md
- docs/analysis/ENV_PROFILE_PRESETS.md (E4-1 added, E3-4 corrected)
- CURRENT_TASK.md (E4-1 complete, E3-4 frozen)
- core/bench_profile.h (E4-1 promoted to default)

21e2e4ac2b Phase 4 E3-4: ENV Constructor Init (+4.75% GO)
Target: Eliminate E1 lazy init check overhead (3.22% self%)
- E1 consolidated ENV gates but lazy check remained in hot path
- Strategy: __attribute__((constructor(101))) for pre-main init

Implementation:
- ENV gate: HAKMEM_ENV_SNAPSHOT_CTOR=0/1 (default 0, research box)
- core/box/hakmem_env_snapshot_box.c: Constructor function added
  - Reads ENV before main() when CTOR=1
  - Refresh also syncs gate state for bench_profile putenv
- core/box/hakmem_env_snapshot_box.h: Dual-mode enabled check
  - CTOR=1 fast path: direct global read (no lazy branch)
  - CTOR=0 fallback: legacy lazy init (rollback safe)
  - Branch hints adjusted for default OFF baseline

A/B Test Results (Mixed, 10-run, 20M iters, E1=1):
- Baseline (CTOR=0): 44.28M ops/s (mean), 44.60M ops/s (median)
- Optimized (CTOR=1): 46.38M ops/s (mean), 46.53M ops/s (median)
- Improvement: +4.75% mean, +4.35% median

Decision: GO (+4.75% >> +0.5% threshold)
- Expected +0.5-1.5%, achieved +4.75%
- Lazy init branch overhead was larger than expected
- Action: Keep as research box (default OFF), evaluate promotion

Phase 4 Cumulative:
- E1 (ENV Snapshot): +3.92%
- E2 (Alloc Per-Class): -0.21% (NEUTRAL, frozen)
- E3-4 (Constructor Init): +4.75%
- Total Phase 4: ~+8.5%

- docs/analysis/PHASE4_E3_ENV_CONSTRUCTOR_INIT_NEXT_INSTRUCTIONS.md
- docs/analysis/PHASE4_COMPREHENSIVE_STATUS_ANALYSIS.md
