s8-steady.mjs: two nodes, one honest vmine miner at 1 block/s, no flood,
RSS and cache-build count every 60 s, vmmap -summary at 0, 500, 1,000 and
1,500 blocks. Both builds ran 1,500 blocks on the 60x profile: before
41 to 1,342 MB by 514 blocks (9 cache builds, five 256 MiB chunks resident:
KEEP 4 plus one evicted chunk the allocator keeps) then flat, 27 builds in
1,529 blocks; after 319 MB at 510 blocks (1 build), 589 at 1,029 (the second
day's cache, by design), 603 at 1,526, 2 builds. Residual 30 MB per 1,000
blocks on both builds, read as the consensus database and caches filling,
not the PoW cache. JSON and vmmap files under
docs/benchmarks/memory-floods-2026-10-04/.

s6 +6/+3/+1 MB per load, s7 302 to 318 MB, 0 cache builds, epochs 0 to 3
rolled, 202 blocks accepted; the pass-1 column stays beside it. Result JSON
after-{s6-exhaustion,s7-flood}.json added. The s6 one-instant sink check is
noted as a harness flake.

Report docs/review/redteam-2026-10-04.md: finality attacks s1-s8 plus 34% withholding, 50/50 long partition, F23 and
F24 custom runs, ordering harness, execution suite and EVM smoke, proving hostile tests and a proof flood, difficulty v2
timestamp forging in the simulator. New fails: the fast-time harnesses corrupt the u64::MAX sentinels of the override
(F25), a block or transaction flood grows the node by hundreds of MB in a minute (M30), the coinbase does not fit the
204-byte limit on mainnet, testnet and simnet parameters (M31). F23 and F24 reproduced on this build; F21's bound
measured at one window of the side's own DAA. Scenario scripts under tools/finality-attacks/redteam/.

tools/harness: IGNEUM_HARNESS_BASE_PORT and IGNEUM_HARNESS_TMP move the test
network's ports and data directory so two agents can run it at once; the u64
sentinel round-trip in overrideParams is fixed with the BigInt reviver from
tools/finality-attacks (ledger F25); s6 records rss_start, rss_delta and
cache_builds per load and reports per-load growth (the old row subtracted one
baseline taken before all three loads, which is how the mempool flood was
read as +270 MB); s7 counts "PoW cache built" lines beside every RSS sample;
--live-only skips the s7 simulator part.
docs/bench-log.md: the 4 October 2026 (night) entry: the floods' growth was
one 256 MiB PoW cache per epoch roll (the engine kept a cache per (epoch,
day) pair, KEEP 4), measured before and after the fork fix (fork branch
fud-memory, 796f758d): submit load +263/+257 MB with 1/1 builds before,
+9/+2 MB with 0/0 after; block flood 302 to 1,085 MB with 3/3 builds before,
300 to 315 MB with 0/0 after. Result JSON under
docs/benchmarks/memory-floods-2026-10-04/.

The first Windows update over the air (0.3.3 to 0.3.4) sat on 'the installer is starting' with no helper log on
PC 2. The helper launched by a remote job with the same arguments ran at once. Fix in 0.3.5; the Windows machines
take 0.3.5 by hand once more.

Header: site/partials/nav.html, head.html, footer.html, injected by site/build.mjs between markers in every page (the bench template too) with the active link marked; the master mark in its black square, the wordmark, Litepaper, Live devnet, Engineering log, Evidence, GitHub and the miner button, in that order everywhere; one menu script (closes on a link, a tap outside, Escape with focus back on the button, a resize past 900 px); a skip link; one focus ring and one reduced-motion rule.
Litepaper: the hash routed by a click delegate and popstate instead of the browser's fragment jump. Root cause of the tabs fault: show() scrolled to the top of the article, never to the section; in whole-paper mode the fragment jump landed on the section and the smooth scroll then dragged the reader back to the Abstract; in one-section mode a deep link scrolled while the section was still display:none and landed on the cover. Now: every section and all 29 subsection headings reachable by URL in both modes, scroll-margin from the measured bar height (nav, plus the contents row on a phone), focus moved to the heading, a re-aim after a late font batch, mode buttons stacked in the sidebar.
Pages: homepage headline capped at 9cqw so it is two lines at 390 and 1440 (was four with "fire." alone), journey inlined by the build (no fetch, no shift), dates as "4 Oct 2026"; live page legend no longer forces 420 px of width at 390, the hash-rate unit as small mono, idle redraw at 30/s with a 1.5x backing store (0.7 to 1.2% of one core idle in Chrome for Testing, taken under load), the proving line wraps on a phone; evidence sort headings are buttons, chips carry aria-pressed, a scroll hint under 1,140 px; bench contents in a sticky scroll box, og.png?v=3; 404.html; sitemap with /evidence; vercel.json caches fonts a year and images a day.
Fonts: eight latin woff2 files in site/fonts (139 KB for all, 118 KB a typical page), preloaded first-paint faces, fallback faces with size-adjust and ascent overrides from the font tables; every page lost its render-blocking fonts.googleapis.com stylesheet and the gstatic origin.
HTML per page before to after (gzip): / 17,265 to 21,810 B; /litepaper 20,556 to 24,957; /live 15,640 to 17,777; /evidence 18,899 to 22,493; /bench 94,723 to 98,289. Third-party requests before to after: 3 to 1 (jsdelivr, light client), 1 to 0, 3 to 0, 1 to 0, 1 to 0. Lighthouse before and after is queued under the measure lock (held by reliability runs since 19:16Z, load average 258) and recorded in docs/design/site-polish-2026-10-04.md when it runs.
Checks: node site/build.mjs, tools/ci/link-check.mjs (246 links, 0 broken), identity grep, and a Chrome for Testing run over every page at 390, 768 and 1440 (no overflow, no console errors, menu, router in both modes, deep links on reload, keyboard).
