The sampler put the worm carve's first noise call (VoxelGenerator.cpp:3985, FusedWorm) at 19.4% of
LOD0. The worm only carves where N1 + N2 < T with N2 >= 0, so where N1 >= T it contributes nothing,
bit for bit. A block proven to have N1 >= T everywhere can skip both noise calls exactly.
- The Lipschitz bound for this Perlin3D implementation: L = (15/4) * sqrt(3) * 1.25 = 8.118988160,
in scaled-N1 units, with a 1e-3 float-rounding margin. Adversarial sampling found a worst ratio
of 3.187 (0.39 L). The existing 2D floor-relief bound (8.5) is a component bound of a different
field and was confirmed not to transfer.
- A soundness test that can fail (VoxelForgeWormBlockSkipTest): 6,476 proved blocks, 355,945 exact
lattice samples, 0 violations. A deliberately halved L proves a bad block; the full L rejects it.
- voxel.WormBlockSkip, default 1.
Field exact: export OBJ byte-identical (b3e5f4c3..9b377), 841/841 keyed tiles identical to
NextHeadStaticTrace_20260913, capability 20,830 / 10,909.
RESULT, stated plainly: no measurable speed gain. The skip rate is 4.07% of worm-eligible LOD0
samples and 0% at LOD1-4, because the bound is ~2.5x looser than the worst observed ratio at the
block size used. Paired on-vs-off, two interleaved runs each: static worker +2.15%, generation p50
+1.8%; moving worker -1.42%, request p50 -2.5%. Within noise. The next round turns the default OFF.
The proven bound and its test are kept for a tighter skip later (smaller or hierarchical blocks,
or a per-cell bound).
Run ledger (from Codex's report): the first build failed on an ambiguous test overload and was
fixed; two timing runs are void because the orchestrator stopped the session so the owner could
use the PC; the eight valid timing runs, the sampler run and the diagnostics runs completed. No
new crash folders. PERF-SAMPLED.md now lists all eight earlier-round UECC crash records.
