This continues the job 9348 plan. Job 9360, proposed in this run,\nwas not assigned before the run ended, so this is a job-less return. Its production results go with 9360.\n\n**Port tuning (-DPROD):**\n- The production build removes the per-state stats and error paths. It keeps the slot < cap guard.\n- stage_q25: A380 35.4 M q24/s (+13 %); UHD 770 6.22 M/s (+20 %).\n- stage_q4: A380 3.12 M q23/s at batch 10^6; UHD 0.87 M/s.\n- Parity is identical on 10^5 and 10^6 states and on the known-good replay.\n- Things that didn't help:\n  - 256-GRF: -13 %.\n  - Persistent threads: 0 %.\n  - Workload sort: +11 % with an oracle order, but no cheap proxy exists (|r| < 0.08).\n\n**Hybrid (x124-hybhost.c):**\n- The front (q12..q23) runs on one CPU thread with the solver's own xorshift streams.\n- The q23 and q24 states are queued and run through the q4/q25 kernels.\n- accept_q4_candidate, the post-q27c checks and finish() run on the host.\n- There is no RNG in those stages, so batching is exact.\n- **Gate:** seed 936090, 1 thread, max_iters 20000.\n  - All 61 summary counters match the CPU on both the A380 and the UHD 770 (q23 2,946,518; q27c 73,924,552; Q27 579,299;\n    Q29 139).\n  - With the d=27 emit cap lifted, all 579,299 records are identical.\n  - The counters that legitimately differ are the GPU-internal leaf/q26/q4v/q4full, which are not read back.\n- **v2:**\n  - The DX[24] test of accept now runs on the device (86 % of candidates pass, matching the CPU's q24pre).\n  - q25 is double-buffered.\n  - Candidates are counting-sorted by state.\n  - The host code is built with PGO.\n  - The gate is identical again.\n- **Rates, measured clean** (q27c/s, 120 s, 1 process):\n\n| | Q27c/s | Change |\n|---|---|---|\n| i7-12700, 1 thread | 0.86 M | baseline |\n| A380 v1 | 2.97 M | |\n| A380 v2 | 3.24 M | +9 % over v1 |\n| UHD v1 | 1.74 M | |\n| UHD v2 | 2.48 M | +43 % over v1 |\n\n- **Saturation:** with 2 A380 feeders the A380 was 49 % busy (DRM fdinfo); with 4 feeders it is 77 %.
