Problem
Optimizer binary profiles performed atomic read-modify-writes for kinds already published millions of iterations earlier, forcing shared-realm workers to contend on hot per-instruction bytes.
Acceptance
- Binary operand profiling performs atomic writes only for newly observed kind bits.
- Concurrent observations converge without losing any kind.
- Normal and TSan focused coverage remains green.
- The exact eight-lane arithmetic reproducer returns near the accepted scale.
- The complete comparison publication is regenerated after the batched contention fixes.
Result
4c0d04b load-checks monotonic profile bits before atomic OR and retains race-safe convergence. The focused profile tests pass 4/4 normally and under TSan. The exact eight-lane reproducer improved from 84.0 seconds to 2.308 seconds; the July 22 full matrix and all 1,540 samples are published. The complete unit suite passes 1,404/1,404.
