8. Appendix — audit trail

Suite totals: 4,668 checks — 4,663 passed, 1 failed, 4 skipped, in 188.1
minutes.

Complete forwarding matrix with every limited_by, so §5.7 can be audited
rather than trusted:

The 20 UDP cells the matrix renders, as the panel classifies each:

Workers 64B 128B 512B 1518B
1 BNG ceiling 6.78 BNG ceiling 6.17 line rate 4.23 line rate 1.46
2 BNG ceiling 13.57 BNG ceiling 12.38 line rate 4.23 line rate 1.46
3 floor (rss) 20.25 line rate 15.20 line rate 4.23 line rate 1.46
4 floor 21.93 line rate 15.20 line rate 4.23 line rate 1.46
5 floor 21.93 line rate 15.20 line rate 4.23 line rate 1.46

Totals: 4 ceiling, 13 line rate zero-loss, 3 floor — matching the panel's own
summary. Four TCP-profile cells exist in the JSON but are not part of the matrix
and are not used here.

Four cells of twenty are maximum-throughput numbers. They are the four quoted in
§5.7, and no other forwarding figure in this report is presented as a platform
capability.

Three-run comparison on identical parameters and hardware, used in §3.1 to
assess core isolation:

Cell Run 696 (no isolcpus) Run 698 (isolcpus) Run 699 (isolcpus)
1 worker, 64B 7.04 Mpps 6.779 6.776
1 worker, 128B 6.328 Mpps 6.156 6.167
2 workers, 64B 13.68 Mpps 13.59 13.57
2 workers, 128B 12.25 Mpps 12.31 12.38

Build provenance: bundle 1.4.0-13, plugin 0.10.36, commit 9a12835,
clean working tree. Pre-flight gate passed all twelve checks before launch.
