Keep minor remembered sets for boxed roots and the shape table's carrier mutations. Compact both sets after each minor while retaining authoritative full-table walks for major collection. Report whole copied-minor pause time and its scanner share together.
Record the scanner map, sabotage-able test coverage, disk-gated validation, predictions, and the exact perrymaster follow-up request.
Account for the successful copying-minor path with diagnostic-only wall-time buckets that partition the same interval as pause_us. Include per-table from-space finalization and dead-owner prune detail so the remaining fixed minor cost can be localized from one complete ran line.
Make descriptor, closure metadata, template, array named-property, and symbol side-table minor scans proportional to entries that can still move, die, or expose a young strong edge. Keep full scans authoritative and use test-only re-derivation sabotage checks to enforce every write funnel. Narrow descriptor and closure owner retention to collectible metadata keys; long-lived values remain logged only where their transitive edges require it.
Record the phase instrument, young-log mappings and sabotage coverage, shape residual analysis, validation results, performance predictions, and the exact perrymaster relink and measurement request.
Restore the dense full-table walkers for template roots and symbol side tables after MP measurements showed that their keyed young paths cost more. Remove the associated publication upkeep and rederivation tests while leaving the three measured wins and descriptor narrowing intact. Move the built-in closure young log onto hot TLS and update the thread-local and rekey policy inventories for the callable-exports module split. Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_011dhBmdn4vGgNibjo3oZqTo
…minor A minor can only remove nursery owners, so walk the per-object layout tables' young-entry log rather than every standing key. Full collections retain the whole-table prune and rebuild the log from survivors. Replay 19a6cd2 on the PerryTS#9957 phase-instrument tree. Its runtime hunks are unchanged; the young-log test file keeps both the newer fixed-cost scanner tests and the replayed layout-prune tests. Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_011dhBmdn4vGgNibjo3oZqTo
Under PERRY_LAYOUT_DIAG, time each existing death-prune walk and emit marginal histograms for surviving mask owners, slot counts, pointer share, and heap space. Price the standing residue as per-key prune nanoseconds and the maximum tag checks masks can save in one full trace. Keep insert provenance in diagnostic-only counters so LayoutSlotMask and the unarmed trace/store representation do not change. Cover kind/bucket routing and prove the unarmed histogram loop stays dark with sabotage-capable tests. Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_011dhBmdn4vGgNibjo3oZqTo
Record the replay evidence, field derivations, sabotage-capable tests, follow-up rule candidates, and exact Stage LP measurement request. Preserve the binding disk-floor result for the release gates that could not start. Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_011dhBmdn4vGgNibjo3oZqTo
Document the required target cleanup after the final Cargo gates were blocked by the campaign's 12 GB free-space floor. Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_011dhBmdn4vGgNibjo3oZqTo
Distinguish the two replay tests covered by the focused layout filter from the remaining named test whose full-suite gate was blocked by disk capacity. Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_011dhBmdn4vGgNibjo3oZqTo

resulting young-root list even when skipped by the full-trace scan, while
preserving existing handling for boxes already added to kept.

🌐 Web query:
site:github.com/PerryTS/perry crates/perry-runtime/src/box.rs BOX_YOUNG_ROOTS ASYNC_RELEASE_DRAINED
💡 Result:
The requested identifiers relate to the internal implementation of the Perry runtime (a native TypeScript compiler written in Rust) [1][2]. BOX_YOUNG_ROOTS and ASYNC_RELEASE_DRAINED are constants or flags associated with the memory management and asynchronous runtime systems within the crates/perry-runtime crate [1][3]. 1. BOX_YOUNG_ROOTS: This is part of the runtime's generational garbage collection (GC) architecture [4]. In the Perry runtime, memory management includes a generational GC that distinguishes between young and old objects [4]. BOX_YOUNG_ROOTS specifically refers to the handling of roots (pointers) located in the young generation ("nursery") or roots that point to the young generation during the GC mark and sweep phases [4]. 2. ASYNC_RELEASE_DRAINED: This identifier is associated with the runtime's asynchronous task management and stream handling [5]. The Perry runtime includes logic to handle asynchronous iterators and stream consumption [5]. The "drained" suffix typically refers to states where buffers or queues (such as those for Node.js-style Readable streams) have been fully processed or emptied, and "ASYNC_RELEASE" likely pertains to the teardown or cleanup procedures for these asynchronous handles [5]. These components are internal implementation details used for maintaining memory safety in the generational GC [4] and ensuring spec-compliant, non-blocking behavior for asynchronous operations and event-loop liveness [5][6]. They are not intended for end-user interaction.

Keep drained boxes in BOX_YOUNG_ROOTS during a full-trace rebuild.
scan_box_roots_mut skips drained boxes before kept.push, then replaces BOX_YOUNG_ROOTS with kept. relevant_box_roots still includes registered boxes with minor-relevant payloads. scan_box_young_roots_mut visits only addresses taken from that log, so a subsequent minor can omit the payload. In debug or test builds, debug_assert_logged panics when the relevant entry is missing.
🐛 Proposed fix: log the drained box even though the full trace does not visit it
if full_trace
&& pending
.get(&addr)
.is_some_and(|tag| *tag == (ASYNC_RELEASE_JS | ASYNC_RELEASE_DRAINED))
{
+ // The full trace reaches this payload through each live
+ // closure instead, but a minor still roots it strongly,
+ // and `relevant_box_roots` names it. Keep the key.
+ let ptr = addr as *mut Box;
+ if is_plausible_box_ptr(ptr)
+ && unsafe { crate::gc::young_log::bits_are_minor_relevant((*ptr).value) }
+ {
+ kept.push(addr);

Run the young-log completeness assertion in release test builds.
YoungLog::debug_assert_logged is available under #[cfg(any(debug_assertions, test))], but its caller is gated by #[cfg(debug_assertions)]. Therefore, cargo test --release omits the assertion, so a missing arm_young_layout_key call is not detected. Use #[cfg(any(debug_assertions, test))] at the caller.

Route stable-tombstone updates through the carrier-note funnel. set_object_keys_array can send an in-place append to try_update_stable_tombstone_shape, which updates the existing descriptor and returns before stamp_object_shape_id_with_carrier_note runs. If an old receiver’s carried Longlived keys array gains a nursery key, the carrier log can miss that leaf; debug builds may panic in debug_assert_logged, while release builds may miss its rekey.

In `@crates/perry-runtime/src/object/shapes.rs` around lines 807 - 815, Update
try_update_stable_tombstone_shape so in-place descriptor updates route the
affected keys array through note_shape_carrier_candidate before returning,
preserving the carrier-note behavior that
stamp_object_shape_id_with_carrier_note provides for other structural mutations.

- copying.rs reached 2066 lines. The remembered-set scan and pinned-young preflight move to copying/remembered_scan.rs. Their `pub(super)` meant `gc` in the parent and means `copying` in the child, so both are widened to `pub(in crate::gc)` to keep the original reach. - regex_census.rs: `rows` is extended only under `regex-engine`, so the binding is unused-mut without that feature and REQUIRES mut with it. Scoped the allow to the feature-off build rather than dropping `mut`, which breaks the feature-on build. (My first attempt dropped it.) - shapes.rs: #9976 deliberately removed `family_push_back`'s production rekey caller — the scanner-internal rekey note explains why re-entering the writer funnel mid-walk is wrong — leaving shapes_test_support as its only consumer. Gated `#[cfg(test)]` to match. - Five new holders classified: BOX_YOUNG_ROOTS is covered_elsewhere, since every address in that minor remembered set is also in the box registry that scan_box_roots_mut walks; the four test seams and the histogram counter are not_a_gc_pointer. - PASS1_MARKED re-audited: gc/mod.rs gains two module declarations and one reg_scanner! registration, gc/census.rs widens side_tables() and adds census rows plus a test. A scanner registration adds a root SOURCE and runs nowhere between the census boundaries; census reporting runs from the diagnostic dump, not inside a cycle. LAYOUT_DIAG's entry is deleted: the holder became covered, which the gate calls the receipt.

Stacked on #9957 (151680f; itself on #9950). Two runtime commits + reports: dd279a8 = a patch-identical replay of #9895's
perf(gc): prune the per-object layout tables from a young-entry log on a minor(19a6cd2) onto the current tree (its other commits were superseded: 390796a is already on main, and the closure-log removal contradicts MP's measurement that the closure log pays); 97b5500 = a diag-only residue histogram (PERRY_LAYOUT_DIAG: per prune, the survivingLAYOUT_SLOT_MASKSentries by owner kind × slot bucket × pointer share × space, insert sites since the last prune, and a price line).Why
MP's phase table priced a steady cc minor at 46 ms, of which the dead-owner prune of
LAYOUT_SLOT_MASKS + TYPED_LAYOUTSwas 8.5 ms: the prune walked the whole standing table (≈ 156 k keys on cc) on every copying minor, ≈ 57 ns per key (LD: 8.7–9.3 ms at 155–161 k keys, 3.7–5.2 ms at 71–86 k). #9895's young-entry log makes that walk O(young entries) — on cc the per-minor churn is +3…+10 keys.Measured (perrymaster LP, 2026-09-08; control = #9957's tree on the same bundle cache)
What the histogram says (one diag run, steady minor 5)
residue keys=155,924 closure=37,936 object=145 array=117,843; ptr_share q4=136,987 (≥ 75 % pointers); slots 4–7: 45.8 k, 8–15: 31.7 k, 16–31: 43.1 k, 32–63: 32.5 k, 64–255: 2.8 k, 256+: 18; space old=155,924 nursery=0 malloc=0; inserts_since birth=0 rebuild=0 store=5,974; per_key_prune_ns 1–4 on steady minors; est_tag_checks_saved_per_trace ≈ 160 k. The residue is old-generation pointer-dense arrays and closures whose masks are minted by field stores (layout_note_slot), not by births; the array masks save ≈ 160 k tag checks per full trace. Any change to which objects earn a mask is a separate design; this PR only makes their pruning cheap and their population visible.Named tests:
dead_young_masked_owner_is_pruned_through_the_layout_log,surviving_young_masked_owner_is_rekeyed_and_stays_logged,old_layout_records_are_skipped_by_a_minor(the replay),layout_residue_histogram_counts_by_kind_and_bucket,layout_residue_histogram_is_silent_when_unarmed(sabotage stated in the campaign report). Supersedes #9895.GC-adjacent: needs the
run-extended-testslabel.Settled RSS, resolved (perrymaster LP3, 2026-09-08)
The +20 MB after idle in one round was noise: on a dedicated idle row (one 3300-char reply, 120 s idle) the arm settles 16 MB lower and peaks 35 MB lower than the control (498 → 482 MB after idle; 640 → 605 peak); at 400 chars +4 MB after idle. Three 4-turn rounds: −7.0 %, +1.6 %, +0.8 % CPU (mean −1.5 %, consistent with ≈ 4 ms × 26 minors inside round-to-round spread); peak RSS −1.7 … +0.9 %. The young log holds no measurable memory.
