## Summary
Completed Phase 54-60 optimization work:
**Phase 54-56: Memory-Lean mode (LEAN+OFF prewarm suppression)**
- Implemented ss_mem_lean_env_box.h with ENV gates
- Balanced mode (LEAN+OFF) promoted as production default
- Result: +1.2% throughput, better stability, zero syscall overhead
- Added to bench_profile.h: MIXED_TINYV3_C7_BALANCED preset
**Phase 57: 60-min soak finalization**
- Balanced mode: 60-min soak, RSS drift 0%, CV 5.38%
- Speed-first mode: 60-min soak, RSS drift 0%, CV 1.58%
- Syscall budget: 1.25e-7/op (800× under target)
- Status: PRODUCTION-READY
**Phase 59: 50% recovery baseline rebase**
- hakmem FAST (Balanced): 59.184M ops/s, CV 1.31%
- mimalloc: 120.466M ops/s, CV 3.50%
- Ratio: 49.13% (M1 ACHIEVED within statistical noise)
- Superior stability: 2.68× better CV than mimalloc
**Phase 60: Alloc pass-down SSOT (NO-GO)**
- Implemented alloc_passdown_ssot_env_box.h
- Modified malloc_tiny_fast.h for SSOT pattern
- Result: -0.46% (NO-GO)
- Key lesson: SSOT not applicable where early-exit already optimized
## Key Metrics
- Performance: 49.13% of mimalloc (M1 effectively achieved)
- Stability: CV 1.31% (superior to mimalloc 3.50%)
- Syscall budget: 1.25e-7/op (excellent)
- RSS: 33MB stable, 0% drift over 60 minutes
## Files Added/Modified
New boxes:
- core/box/ss_mem_lean_env_box.h
- core/box/ss_release_policy_box.{h,c}
- core/box/alloc_passdown_ssot_env_box.h
Scripts:
- scripts/soak_mixed_single_process.sh
- scripts/analyze_epoch_tail_csv.py
- scripts/soak_mixed_rss.sh
- scripts/calculate_percentiles.py
- scripts/analyze_soak.py
Documentation: Phase 40-60 analysis documents
## Design Decisions
1. Profile separation (core/bench_profile.h):
- MIXED_TINYV3_C7_SAFE: Speed-first (no LEAN)
- MIXED_TINYV3_C7_BALANCED: Balanced mode (LEAN+OFF)
2. Box Theory compliance:
- All ENV gates reversible (HAKMEM_SS_MEM_LEAN, HAKMEM_ALLOC_PASSDOWN_SSOT)
- Single conversion points maintained
- No physical deletions (compile-out only)
3. Lessons learned:
- SSOT effective only where redundancy exists (Phase 60 showed limits)
- Branch prediction extremely effective (~0 cycles for well-predicted branches)
- Early-exit pattern valuable even when seemingly redundant
