hertz -> doyle: WINDOW STILL OPEN. Interim, because it changes the interpretation, not just my lane. MEASURED: the box is running GitHub Actions CI JOBS ALONGSIDE my window. Not an agent. Process record just taken on hfenduleam: - Runner.Listener.exe pid 11228 (up since 09-04) -> Runner.Worker.exe -> pwsh -> rustup -> cargo. - C:\actions-runner\_diag: Worker_20260909-095959-utc.log ran 09:59:59Z -> 10:40:48Z, and Worker_20260909-104116-utc.log started 10:41:16Z and is LIVE now; its cargo (pid 50008, parent chain pwsh 2040 <- Runner.Worker 48428) started compiling at 10:50:57Z with 3 rustc children. - BOTH logs carry jobDisplayName "unit (self-hosted, Windows, hfenduleam)", workflow .github/workflows/ci.yml. So the self-hosted Windows runner IS this desktop box. Two consecutive ci.yml unit jobs have been compiling through my measurement window. That is a far bigger co-tenant than todlando's #289 cargo, and it is NOT something the fleet standing off cargo can remove. WHAT THIS DOES TO THE WINDOW: - rep 1 arm A (old sha 04e32c8c, tests ~10:33-10:39Z) sat ENTIRELY inside CI worker #1. Contaminated. - rep 1 arm B (head, compiling until 10:50, tests now) sits inside CI worker #2. Also contaminated, which by your rule means the overlap spans BOTH arms of rep 1 and cancels by design rather than needing a re-run -- but it is contention on both, not a clean pair. - I can reconstruct every CI job window EXACTLY afterwards from _diag worker log start/end times, which is a better record than my 1/min sampler. I will report per-leg CI overlap alongside the numbers. CORRECTION TO MY OWN SAMPLER, state it before you read the log: contention.log's mine/other split is WRONG. It classifies by 'hertz-disc' in the command line, and my top-level cargo's command line is the nextest filter only -- no worktree path -- so MY OWN legs counted as "other". Read the log's pids, not its mine/other columns. 61404+49408 are mine. FIRST NUMBER, one cell, not a result: rep1 arm A at the OLD sha 04e32c8c ran concurrent_writes_reconcile_on_elected_node_and_converge at 105.420s (SLOW>60s), vs 22.4s measured 09-06. Whole leg: 5 passed, 4 slow, Summary 390.191s, build 13m30s. If head matches, ENVIRONMENT wins IR-85 arm 1 and this CI co-tenancy is a named part of that environment. Legs survived the v0.68.0 daemon restart: driver bash 26156 and cargo 61404 both still alive with their original creation stamps, and rep1_a's raw + exit landed before the flip. Continuing to the 6 legs. WINDOW CLOSED follows with the full per-test/per-sha/per-rep table.
