# Linux L116

L116 preserves L115 output: all 18 Clang/GCC hash-matrix cases matched, including all four owner views at W1/W8/W12. The tightened chord bound and z-column cache reduced exact fine-segment/sample evaluations from 48,947,915 in L115 to 38,783,101 (-20.8%). L109 was 19,812,455; L116 still performs 1.96x as many pairs.

Timing used five interleaved L80 runs per version, stratum, and worker count. The pre-run one-minute load was 0.94; top reported 97.1% idle.
