Soak test results (maintainer sample)

Sample run on maintainer hardware — not a SLA or capacity guarantee. Re-run locally before your launch.

Command

FLUCTLIGHT_SOAK_CYCLES=3000 bash scripts/soak_brain.sh /tmp/soak-sample

2026-07-09 — Linux x86_64, fluctlightdb-native 0.5.9 (PyPI)

Metric	Value
Cycles	3000 experience()
Wall time	185.1 s
Throughput	~16.2 writes/s
Recall probes (every 10th)	300 hits / 0 misses
Final engrams	3000
Final synapses	40464
On-disk size	~6.2 MB

Interpretation: No recall misses on lexical probes; memory grew linearly with cycle count. For production sizing, run FLUCTLIGHT_SOAK_CYCLES=50000+ on your target hardware and monitor disk + RSS.

CI runs a shorter soak (1500 cycles) in the python-sdk-native job.
