Ran on moon-dev +(monoio release, VM-local binary, fresh-server-per-rep). Verdict: **⚠1 NOT retired — +the fixed-spin premise is undercut, and the regression is architectural, not a +fixable wake bug.** Evidence: +- BASELINE health: s1 c1 GET = 146k RPS / 7µs (local floor fine). s4 c1 GET + *warm* = 26k / 36µs (matches shardslice §6) but *sustained* collapses to + ~1.7k / ~580µs. +- NEIGHBOUR STARVATION CONFIRMED (clean relative signal): s4 c100 GET with a + fixed spin=4096 = 44k vs spin=0 = 87k (−48%). An unconditional spin trades + multi-client throughput for c1 latency → materializes `shard_starvation`. Any + spin MUST be idle-shard-gated/adaptive, not a fixed budget (harder than §1's M1). +- WAKE-LOSS HYPOTHESIS REFUTED (load-independent): INFO `spsc_notify_wakes` + delta = 149999 for ~150k cross-shard ops at c1 → ratio **1.000**. The eventfd + cross-thread wake fires for EVERY op; there is NO tick-floor/lost-wake bug. + Latency = 2×(cross-thread wake + vCPU reschedule) + processing; the reschedule + term scales with VM contention (warm 36µs → load1.5 188µs → load3 580µs) while + the wake COUNT stays correct. The "collapse"/variance was VM vCPU scheduling, + not code. +- INSTRUMENT INVALID: the OrbStack VM cannot measure c1 cross-shard latency under + host contention (1-min load floored ~1.5 with shards parked at ~0% CPU, 1 + runnable thread = host→guest vCPU starvation). Real numbers need GCloud + bare-metal / dedicated cores (scripts/gcloud-bench-setup.sh). +- IMPLICATION: the −85% is ARCHITECTURAL — shared-nothing replaced a 4µs + same-thread lock-read with a cross-thread round-trip that inherently wakes + another thread twice. No wake fix exists. Safe levers that survive: adaptive + (idle-gated) reply-side spin removes ONE of the two wakes (ceiling ~halve); + read coalescing (multi-client only); the dead-flag cleanup (D3, unaffected). + Recovering to ~4µs needs the rejected snapshot/RCU or client-routing paths. +- Spike scaffolding: `scripts/spike-xshard-read.sh` (kept); the env-gated + `MOON_XSHARD_SPIN` prototype in handler_monoio was REVERTED (throwaway). +- DIRECTION (user, 2026-06-13): pivoted to "diagnose wake degradation first" → + diagnosis complete (no bug).
