Certificates carry 8 to 10 of 12 votes on a healthy network, so locks sit a hair above the floor +"Two of your cloud checkpoints locked at 66.8% against a 66.7% floor with every node connected.

With all 12 miners connected the certificates carried 8 to 10 of 12 votes (66.7 to 89% of total weight at 14:00 UTC); checkpoints 437 and 439 locked at 66.8%. The missing votes are late votes that miss the aggregation window, not absent voters. Experiment: measure vote arrival against the aggregator's cut-off on the cloud network (inter-region RTT up to 289 ms) and on the devnet; candidates are a longer aggregation window, a second aggregation round that folds late votes into the certificate before it is carried, or counting a vote that arrives after the certificate toward the next checkpoint's presence.

The program space is tiny "Eleven integer ops, 64 instructions, 8 iterations, a splitmix register init. That is not RandomX. RandomX leans on a superscalar out-of-order CPU with floating point and branches. Yours is a sea of 32-bit ALUs and a memory bus. A chip for that is a weekend."
