Breed evidence within the 6 GB ceiling; TAA keeps a stochastic coat's history at a moving silhouette - #1638
Conversation
VertexBuffer::Create(data, size) and IndexBuffer::Create are mutable storage on GL (glNamedBufferData), and the NVIDIA driver keeps a resident system-memory copy of every mutable buffer. The Bernese coat's groom rest stream is 1.5 GB of ribbon vertices, so it cost 1.5 GB of working set on top of its VRAM, and BreedShowcaseEvidenceTest crossed the test binary's 6 GB per-process ceiling (peak 7.4 GB, exit 77). The editor carried the same copy. Add VertexBuffer::CreateImmutable / IndexBuffer::CreateImmutable: glNamedBufferStorage with no flags on GL (even GL_DYNAMIC_STORAGE_BIT brings the copy back, measured), Create on Vulkan, whose buffers are device-local already. The groom pass's write-once buffers use them: the rest stream's vertices and indices, the caster order's indices, and an undeformed coat's stream. SetData on a GL vertex buffer without dynamic storage now asserts and logs instead of failing as a silent GL error. Measured on the Bernese hero-angle case: the vertex upload adds 20 MB of working set instead of 1538 MB, peak 4770 -> 3299 MB, steady 4170 -> 2680 MB, every printed measurement identical. Two comments that said Create(data, size) was already immutable are corrected. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
ReadBufferRange bound the buffer and called glMapBuffer(GL_READ_ONLY), which fails on immutable storage created without GL_MAP_READ_BIT, so the inspector previewed every such buffer as nothing (the storage-flag vertex buffers, storage buffers with no map bits, and now every CreateImmutable buffer). Read with glGetNamedBufferSubData, which works on any storage and needs no bind; the range check stays in front of it. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
TheShippedCoatAndBindingSurviveTheLooseAndPackedPaths held the shipped bytes, a re-encoded copy, a recooked binding, the loose import, the packed import and the pack's manager until it returned, each a whole coat, and then swapped the scene to the packed pair, which builds a second rest stream. On the Samoyed that crossed the 6 GB per-process ceiling (6154 MB, exit 77) once the groom fix let the suite reach it. Each stage now lives in its own scope and the loose pair leaves the asset manager once the pack is written: peak 6154 -> 5772 MB (Samoyed), 5045 -> 4949 MB (Bernese), the checks and the printed pixel counts unchanged.

…1608) The rest stream was built whole on the CPU, 64 bytes a ribbon corner, and held beside its indices and caster order until the upload finished: 2 GB of vertices for the Samoyed's two million strands, a 2.6 GB working-set spike every time a coat was first drawn, in the editor as in the tests. It kept the breed suite's packed-path case at 5.77 GB of the 6 GB per-process ceiling. BuildGroomStrandRestMeshStreamed walks the coat exactly as BuildGroomStrandRestMesh does (one shared walk) and hands the vertices to a sink in whole-quad chunks of 16 MiB. ImmutableVertexBufferUpload fills the write-once buffer from them: GL immutable storage with no flags, filled by copies from a one-chunk staging buffer; Vulkan ordered uploads into a device-local buffer. What the pass used to read back off the whole stream -- the caster order's segment lengths and radii, each strand's bind-frame box, the reach and widest radius -- the walk records instead, with the readers' own arithmetic; BuildGroomCasterOrder gains a per-segment form. Every refusal (sink, upload, size) is logged and the coat falls back to the CPU path rather than drawing a short stream. Pinned bit-for-bit against the whole build at four chunk sizes and two budgets. Measured, default ceiling: packed-path case 5772 -> 4284 MB (Samoyed) and 4949 -> 3530 MB (Bernese); eyes case 4614 -> 3761 MB; the printed pixel counts unchanged. Also fixed on the way: a prepared streaming geometry that did not match the request (another binding or groom) was dropped for the fresh build's stats but its vertices, indices and caster strands were still the ones uploaded.

…med (#1608) A mutable GL buffer keeps a resident system-memory copy of itself on NVIDIA, the renderer memory report does not show it, and a coat-sized buffer built whole on the CPU spikes the working set by its size while it uploads. How it was attributed (an outside working-set sampler tagged by gtest case, plus UsedPhysical probes around the creation) is written down too. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
) On the Bernese walk from behind, the resolve did not halve what two draws of the same frames differ by on the face, ears and fringe (0.648, 0.545, 0.530 against a 0.5 bar). A/B arms on the shader (doc table) found two causes: - The coverage term compared 8x8 coverage means. The window is reprojected by the coat's mean velocity, so the coat holds still in it, but the lawn and body beside it move by their own, and at a moving silhouette that moved the mean past the dead band with no change to the coat. A stochastic coat now compares its own share (coverage of marked texels, over all 64). A real step still moves it; TemporalSubjectSequence reads the same to the digit. - The clip box came from one draw's 3x3, itself a draw. A stochastic coat pixel now builds it from 5x5 at gamma 1.0. Walk from behind: face 0.492, ears 0.481, fringe 0.458, tail 0.405, body 0.422, lag 0.25 -> 0.32 (ceiling 0.8); no trail in the strip's frames. The still hair's gain 11.9x -> 12.7x, under upscale 7.1x -> 11.0x (Quality) and 4.3x -> 8.0x (Performance); a coverage halving 0.49 stale a frame on (0.51), 0.31 after four (0.29). The 41 TemporalSubject/LongSequence/Reconstruction and FoxCoat cases pass. Borrowing coat history where the previous frame had none, the issue's first idea, moved nothing: true disocclusion is rare here. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…1608) Self-review of the streamed upload: - GL: the destination's storage is checked after allocation and every chunk's write and copy for a GL error, so an out-of-memory buffer fails the build loudly instead of drawing an empty stream. Two staging buffers in turn, so a chunk's write does not wait on the last chunk's copy. - Vulkan: a fresh, host-mapped buffer takes each chunk by memcpy (WriteBeforeFirstUse), so a BAR-mapped ribbon is never staged whole; an unmapped one still stages per chunk. - A refused stream is remembered per key and said once: the walk and the upload are no longer repeated on every acquire. The walk stops building once the sink refuses. - Streaming records the upload's own time and resident bytes: not the walk's time, not the staging buffers, which are booked to their own owner. - The local boxes are passed as a span; the reach is one helper for both the prepared and the streamed path. - The inspector clears GL errors left by earlier calls before its read. ImmutableBufferStorageTest pins the chunked upload: three uneven chunks read back intact in flags-0 storage; a short, overlong or over-chunk upload builds nothing.

Self-review: comparing only the stochastic coat's share of the 8x8 mean hid a real coverage step of another estimator sharing the window, such as an alpha-tested leaf beside the dog. The mean now sums every texel that holds the mark or a fractional coverage and leaves out only an opaque surface's 1 and an empty texel's 0, which is what moved at the silhouette. The walk from behind and TemporalSubjectSequence read the same to the digit. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

#1608: the breed evidence suite runs within the 6 GB per-process ceiling
Breeds/BreedShowcaseEvidenceTest.*died mid-Bernese at 6510 MB (exit 77) and needed--olo-rss-ceiling-mb=0. It now passes all 22 cases at the default ceiling, and the largest peak is 4433 MB (Samoyed packed-path case). Attributed with an outside per-case working-set sampler, then working-set probes around the suspect creation. The editor pays every one of these costs too.The groom rest stream is GL immutable storage.
VertexBuffer::Create(data, size)isglNamedBufferData, and NVIDIA keeps a resident system-memory copy of every mutable buffer. On the Bernese that copy was 1.5 GB of working set on top of VRAM. NewVertexBuffer::CreateImmutable/IndexBuffer::CreateImmutableuse flags-0glNamedBufferStorage(measured: evenGL_DYNAMIC_STORAGE_BITbrings the copy back); on Vulkan they are plainCreate. The groom's write-once buffers use them. Vertex upload: 1538 MB → 20 MB of working set.A bound coat's rest stream is streamed to the GPU in chunks. Built whole, the Samoyed's 2 GB of ribbon vertices sat beside its indices and caster order until the upload finished, a 2.6 GB spike on every first draw.
BuildGroomStrandRestMeshStreamed(one walk shared withBuildGroomStrandRestMesh) hands 16 MiB chunks toImmutableVertexBufferUpload:What the pass used to read back off the vertices (caster segment lengths and radii, bind-frame boxes, reach) the walk records with the same arithmetic. A refused upload is logged once, remembered per stream, and the coat falls back to the CPU path.
The loose/packed test case scopes its coat copies. It held five copies of the coat until it returned.
#1627: TAA keeps a stochastic coat's history at a moving silhouette
Decided in the session: fix it in the engine, not with a different bar. A/B arms on
PostProcess_TAA.glsl(table intemporal-coverage-means-not-samples.md) found two causes. Borrowing coat history where the previous frame had none, the issue's first idea, measured as nothing, because true disocclusion is rare there.Bernese walk from behind (ratio of resolved to no-history instability; bar 0.5): face 0.648 → 0.492, ears 0.545 → 0.481, fringe 0.530 → 0.458. All four walk views improve, and lag rises 0.06–0.09 (worst 0.597, ceiling 0.8). The rear and front strips show no trails against the base shader. The still hair's gain goes 11.9× → 12.7×; under upscale Quality 7.1× → 11.0× and Performance 4.3× → 8.0×. A coverage halving is 0.49 stale one frame later (was 0.51). All 41 TemporalSubject, LongSequence, Reconstruction and FoxCoat cases pass.
