Starting dotnet-counters in the process-creation race can suspend the CLR before the graphical host creates its window. Wait for the guaranteed in-world boundary, then attach counters and contention tracing during the route's warm-up interval.

Free-running sleeps could label a sample as the old scene exactly when automation began the next teleport. Give every route stop an explicit post-input liveness dwell and post-checkpoint hold, then capture process and frame facts only after its named canonical barrier.

The first-player-position line is emitted only when initial streaming must recenter. Treating it as a required login event made a valid same-landblock login time out while route automation was already running. Gate on in-world and the route's authoritative materialization barriers instead.

Correct whole-frame GPU timestamps so they bracket only the accepted render transaction and associate delayed query results with the owning CPU frame. Add route-wide frame-history summaries, fixed-camera screenshot comparison, process counters, contention traces, a pinned Arwic workload, and credential-safe launch disclosure.
The reference hardware/display contract now keeps local and RDP populations separate and defines the screenshot and re-baseline rules needed by later prepared-content gates.

An adversarial performance review found our own instruments cannot
measure the project's own performance gates:
- FrameProfiler aggregated CPU/GPU/alloc/stage samples into ~5-second
windows and reset the ring buffers after each report, so route-wide
p50/p95/p99 distributions across a whole soak could not be
reconstructed after the fact. ACDREAM_FRAME_HISTORY=<path> now opts
into a separate per-frame history (one record per frame, ~72
bytes/record, accumulated in memory with zero frame-thread I/O) that
a shutdown-only Dispose() writes as CSV. The aggregated [frame-prof]
report format and its existing metrics are unchanged.
- The canonical checkpoint JSON tracked cache residency (entry/byte
counts) but never LOH size/fragmentation, process-wide allocated
bytes, or cache hit/miss/eviction traffic — a committed audit JSON
showed 65% LOH fragmentation that no tracked instrument recorded,
and "does a revisit portal hit or miss the caches" was unanswerable
from an artifact alone. WorldLifecycleResourceSnapshot now carries
loh_size_bytes/loh_fragmentation_bytes (GCMemoryInfo.GenerationInfo
index 3), process_total_allocated_bytes (GC.GetTotalAllocatedBytes),
and Interlocked hit/miss/eviction counters for the CPU mesh cache,
decoded-texture cache, and the four bounded DAT-object caches
(portal/cell/highRes/language, aggregated).
- run-connected-r6-soak.ps1 unconditionally forced
ACDREAM_UNCAPPED_RENDER=1 with no capped mode, while its sibling
lifecycle-gate script correctly gated it behind a switch. Added
-Uncapped (default capped, matching the sibling script's pattern),
fixed the stationary dwell (12s -> 26s, past the 25s
LiveEntityLivenessController deadline the adjacent comment already
cited), and now write an env-disclosure.json into the automation
artifact directory before every launch listing every ACDREAM_* var
the script sets plus -Uncapped, since the prior audit could only see
ACDREAM_DUMP_MOVE_TRUTH and nothing else was ever recorded anywhere.
Cache counters are wired via the existing composition path
(ObjectMeshManager already owns the CPU mesh cache and the mesh
extractor directly; content.Dats is threaded into
WorldLifecycleResourceSnapshotSource the same way every other
composition consumer receives it). The DAT-object cache lives behind
IDatReaderWriter, a third-party interface from the DatReaderWriter
package that cannot be extended; RuntimeDatCollection (the one
production implementation) exposes the aggregate stats directly and a
pattern match reads them, degrading to zero for any test double —
no new static registry was introduced (GpuMemoryTracker remains the
one precedented process-wide static).

(cherry picked from commit 1da2c33c875b41fa383dd79694ee2765f0e21896)
Pin every ACE teleloc to an explicit starting quaternion and distinguish stable-workload owner growth from legitimate authoritative population, visibility, and cache-retirement changes. Preserve the original process residency and frame-cost limits while making canonical deltas actionable.

Make scripted lifecycle checkpoints acknowledged post-diagnostics render barriers, capture the exact frame outcome beside canonical resource ownership, and harden the nine-stop route with ordered same-location cache and lifetime gates without weakening process residency thresholds.

Move the live-session reset and routing graph, combat and diagnostic command targets, and the sole gameplay input subscriber into Phase 7 before frame publication. Add exact retryable ownership for late bindings so partial startup cannot strand session or component teardown edges.

Move the accepted draw transaction and failure recovery behind typed frame-phase owners so GameWindow only supplies immutable frame input. Preserve retail draw order, make ImGui/bootstrap shutdown ownership explicit, and restore exact text-render GL state on failures.\n\nCo-authored-by: Codex <codex@openai.com>
