The spool only fetches what workers lease soon, in priority order, and the
tail never ends: after a reset the 1,400 capture ranges waited behind it
while 34 of 40 connections idled. Up to CORPUS_AHEAD (8) planned capture
ranges whose chunks aren't all stored are now targets after everything else,
fetched into the corpus only (no spool); a later lease reads them from disk.

The settler marks a settled release's candidates ready (and unreadable when
it had no readable name). Claims took the candidates by joining releases
from random points of the queue; in its newer half nothing had settled, so
a slice scanned to the end (0.3 s each, 20 slices and 5 tiers a claim) and
the prober stood still: 2.4M waiting, 0 probed a minute. Now an index over
the claimable rows only, the slices drawn within them.

Fetching, waiting for candidates, idle, inspecting; claims and flushes. The
link had room (222 of 1000 Mbit/s with the coordinator at 239k headers/s,
one test connection ~84 Mbit/s meanwhile) while the prober did ~5/s.

- XoverClient.bodies: PROBE_PIPELINE (8) BODY commands per connection at
once, replies read in order (one at a time it ran 3-10 articles/s on 6
connections against a queue of 1M).
- Claims in tiers: lone files first, then par2 sets and archives of
releases without a readable name (what the par2 merge needs), then those
of readable releases.
- probe_cache: final answers by message-id (status, inspection with the
16 KiB hash and par2 file list), PROBE_VERSION 2. A reset empties the
probe queue, not the cache; recreated candidates of probed articles are
answered from it without the news server.

131 uploads of 1 GiB test files ("kantodoNNN.bin", a.b.test) share their
first 16 KiB and size, so all matched one set's single file and became one
release of 1,284 files. A par2 file that matches more than one release in
the anchor's group and time window is left out; a plain repost of the same
file stays apart too.

A release whose last post is 6 hours old gets nothing from the tail, only
fragments from neighbouring ranges: settled once unchanged for 30 minutes.
Waiting 6 hours after it was read held every history release back from
phase 2 after each reset; with the hourly sweeps' resets the prober (and so
the par2 merge) never had work.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The prober stores, per probed article that starts a file, the MD5 of its
first 16 KiB (file_hashes), and per par2 body the set's whole file list
(par2_files, par2_sets): FileDesc holds the same hash per file, whatever
the file was renamed to. releases:merge (the merger service, no NNTP)
merges every minute the releases of one group, posted within 48 hours of
a release holding the set's par2, whose files the set describes, into the
one with the most files: chunks, probe candidates, inspections, hashes and
counts move; the par2's shared name when none was readable; release_merges
keeps what went where. Obfuscated uploads whose files were each a release
of their own ("[9/20] - "14f5999a…"", hep: 13,232) become one.
Also: corpus_sweep.py counts the marked ranges without psql's command tag.

Ranges marked `capture` keep their XOVER chunks in CORPUS_DIR
(corpus/<group>/<start>-<end>/, edge-bench's layout, range.json once
complete; only chunks that inflate). The prefetcher reads a stored chunk
instead of fetching it, so a reset re-indexes them without the news
server; a chunk a worker reports corrupt goes from the corpus too.
edge-bench gets --releases (release chunks without payload, with their
first subjects) and ships in the edge image; deploy/corpus_sweep.py marks
more ranges (capture), replays the corpus with the deployed build (replay)
and reports suspects and the change since the previous build (report).

FTD posts one upload's files to different groups ("Knowsum-Loops_Are_My_
Religion-WEB-2026-FTD": par2 and part1 to a.b.music.misc, part2 to
a.b.sounds.music, each article in one group only; releases 81825221 and
81825412): the catalog matched a chunk only to releases of its own
group. A chunk without one there now joins a release of its key in
another group whose window is within 3 hours, when none of its file
names are in that release yet; a post of the same files to another group
(other message-ids, same names) stays a release of its own, or its NZB
would hold every file twice. Functional tests for both.

- Search matches a word in the name or the inner name (trigram index on
inner_name, partial, built concurrently); "Readable names" includes
releases with an inner name.
- unlocked=1 (chip "No password") leaves out passworded releases.
- Results carry passworded and innerName: a Password badge, the inner

- The release view: Inside and Inspected facts, a passworded notice, and
Contents (per probed article its yEnc name, kind, type, encryption and
the names inside) from release_inspections.
- Newznab: the password attribute from the prober; an obfuscated release
with an inner name is included, titled by it (without its extension).

Postgres evaluated random() once for all 20 slices: every claim still
came from one place in the queue (214 of 214 taken from a.b.zogg).

In id order the prober went group by group, and some groups' articles

4 deep no faster), where a sample across all years takes 20-60 ms for
most: 7 articles/s on 6 connections, against 67/s in its first minutes.
A claim now takes 20 slices from random points (353 ms per 200).

A release can have several candidates of a kind (two RAR sets): keyed by
(release, kind) both landed in one upsert ("ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE
command cannot affect row a second time"), and the batch was lost.
release_inspections is keyed by candidate now; the first run's results
are cleared and probed again. A random-named file's yEnc name is often
its random name: an inner name equal to the release's name is dropped.

probe:run (compose service prober, PROBE_CONNECTIONS, default 6) claims
waiting candidates of settled releases (lone, then par2, then archive),
fetches each article with BODY over connections of its own (no
compression) and inspects it: the yEnc name and size, the content type
from the first bytes, a par2 set's files, a RAR volume's entries and
whether they're encrypted. Results per release and kind in
release_inspections (CHUNK_TABLESPACE, the HDD); on the release
passworded, inner_name (the largest content name) and inspected_at.
430 = missing, not yEnc = error, both final; connection trouble puts
the candidate back.
Fetch and parse in one process: an article takes ~0.1 s per connection,

Range 161820 failed with "doesn't inflate, also fetched plain" though

Writers lock their group only, so two groups' batches can number the

Some groups' chunks take 20+ minutes while still coming in (range
154153: 17 MB in 22 minutes); the stream's 15-minute wait failed their
workers (two in 15 minutes). Stalled requests are given up separately.

a.b.0day.stuffz sends steadily but slowly (~400 kB a minute, 5-7
minutes per 100k chunk): the fixed deadline (90 s, doubling up to 360 s)
gave its chunks up again and again, and two of its ranges' worker
streams timed out. A stall is a request that got less than
NNTP_STALL_KB_PER_MINUTE (100) in the last minute (the stuck replies
got ~25 kB a minute); then its connection is closed and the chunk
fetched again. Replaces NNTP_CHUNK_DEADLINE_SECONDS.

At 90 s a chunk that always takes longer would be given up forever
(range 155437's worker gave up waiting on its stream). Each deadline a
chunk hits doubles its next one (90, 180, 360 ... up to 16x), reset
once it comes in.

With 2 connections per range the prefetcher needs 20+ ranges with
chunks left; fully spooled ranges counted as ready (SPOOL_AHEAD_PER_LEASE)
but take no connection, so on small ranges 30 of 40 connections were
busy (13-15 ranges). Fresh ranges now also fill up to loops/perRange + 2
ranges being fetched.

A worker waited on one chunk of a leased range for an hour (range
146477: five 15-minute stream timeouts, then the range took 63 s; 88
"stream: Peer disconnected" overnight). The silence timeout doesn't
catch a reply that trickles: a chunk still coming in after
NNTP_CHUNK_DEADLINE_SECONDS (300) is given up, its connection closed,
and fetched again. The report names the oldest request in flight (range,
chunk, age, bytes in) and counts deadlines.
Batches failed with "Maximum call stack size exceeded" (8 overnight):
Math.min(...segments) on a fragment with more segments than the stack

At most PREFETCH_PER_RANGE (2) connections on a range and
PREFETCH_PER_GROUP (4) on a group; SPOOL_AHEAD_PER_LEASE 2 -> 4 so there
are targets enough. The report says how many ranges and groups are in
flight.
Homelab, 40 connections, alternated 12 min each: unlimited (~10 ranges
in flight) 281k and 167k articles/s; spread (~22 ranges) 319k and 296k,
chunks 11.5 s against 13-24 s.

Once a second: pool connections with a command in flight, loops
fetching/writing/idle; per request GROUP time, XOVER time to the status
line and the transfer, transfers with a silence over 5 s. The old
"connections busy" (fetch time of the chunks finished in the minute)
said 59-75% while all 40 connections were in flight all the time:
dropped.
Homelab: 39-40 of 40 in flight, no idle loops; the status line comes at
once, the whole 8-35 s is the transfer, with data flowing (few gaps
over 5 s): ~3 MB per chunk at 0.1-0.4 MB/s per connection.

A chunk not in after NNTP_HEDGE_AFTER_SECONDS (10) is asked again on one
of NNTP_HEDGE_CONNECTIONS spare connections; the first answer wins and
the other connection is closed (lib/nntp/hedge.ts, tested). Connections
can be retired after NNTP_CONNECTION_MAX_MINUTES (±25%). The prefetch
report counts hedges and slow first requests by connection age.
Homelab, 15 min each: hedging on (40 + 6) 280k articles/s, off 273k.
The second request won about half of its races, but ~25-35% of first
requests were slow (>10 s) at every connection age, so neither helps:
Eweka is slow under our load, not on particular connections. Both
off by default; the age statistics stay.

BatchStore.store held the range's row (SELECT … FOR UPDATE) for the
whole batch transaction (15-20 s on the HDD), so the prefetcher's
spooled_chunks updates and the heartbeats of that range waited on it
(0.5 s on average): the prefetcher's NNTP connections sat idle. Now an
advisory lock per range serializes its batches, and the resume point is
checked again in the final, conditional update.

TABLESAMPLE SYSTEM (0.5) read 30 s of random pages on the HDD at 7M

A picture group's 500k articles made batches over the server's 256 MB
body limit: HTTP 413, the range given back and leased again in a loop
(148597: 39 times in 30 minutes). The worker now also posts once
100,000 completed or edge-cut files wait (RangeIndexer.pending).
A stats refresh that failed kept the previous totals silently; it
logs the error now.

A picture group's batch has 30-55k release keys; an advisory lock each
ran Postgres out of shared memory (max_locks_per_transaction), and those
batches failed with HTTP 500 (the ranges went back, nothing stored).
A chunk only matches releases of its range's group, so one lock per
group serializes exactly the writers that could both start an upload.

Eweka sends some ranges' compressed XOVER truncated, the same bytes
every time, while the plain reply is whole (a.b.models 3317215-3367214:
1,675,600 bytes that don't inflate, twice; 50,000 lines plain;
tools/false_end.ts). Not a false end of reply. The worker's corrupt
report removed the chunk and the range was fetched again, with the same
bytes: one range was reported 540 times. (Before this morning's change
the inflate check waited for more data until the 10-minute timeout,
like voyager 1's 'chunk never answered' ranges.)
A reported chunk's start goes into ranges.plain_chunks; the prefetcher
fetches those over one connection without XFEATURE COMPRESS GZIP
(NntpPool.usePlain, opened on demand) and deflates them here. A plain
chunk reported again sets the range aside (status failed, error). The
capture (edge:bench --capture) fetches such a chunk plain too.

A poster re-uploading under the same name made one release of all
uploads: in a sample, 24% of releases with 2+ files had a file name more
than once (4.3% of files extra copies), 70% of those copies posted a day
or more apart; their NZBs listed each copy.
- File assembly keeps a re-upload's copy apart: a part already in every
open copy, posted more than 3 h from them, starts another copy; a
missing part fills the nearest copy (a re-send of what was missing),
a re-sent part near a copy that has it is ignored as before.
- A key's files in a batch split into uploads where posting pauses for
more than 3 h, counted from the latest article posted so far (a file
that takes hours to post doesn't split it); each upload is judged and
chunked on its own (ReleaseChunk.upload, .postedLast; candidates carry
their upload).
- The catalog matches a chunk to the release of its key whose articles
the range's group owns and whose posting window is within 3 h, else
starts one (key, key:2, …): releases get identity_key, group_id,
last_posted_at. Keys are locked in order (advisory locks), so
concurrent batches neither deadlock nor both start one; the merger
writes in key order too. The same upload multi-posted to other groups
is a release per group.
- The gap: 91% of uploads post within 3 h; 73% of re-uploaded copies
come later (releases:upload-gaps). releases:duplicates measures the
duplicate names.
Both implementations; check.ts compares the windows and uploads too
(identical on all captures; Rust tests mirror the TypeScript cases).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
- releases.complete is computed with every batch (files >= the
counter's total) instead of only when a release settles after 6 quiet
hours: the 'complete' filter matched nothing in a fresh catalog.
- A release's file total comes from any counter form (counterTotal:
'(01/10)', 'File 27 of 132', …), not only [i/M]; the post rule's key
keeps the [i/M] total, so keys are unchanged. Both implementations.
- groups.tail: a group's live tail can be paused (its history and owner
priority stay), e.g. to let other groups' history go first.
- Stats: history by articles, and the current pass (history ranges
before those deferred 2000 priorities behind) as its own figure; the
header showed 0.1% of ranges counting 145k deferred ones.

coordinator:run plans the articles after each group's last range every
TAIL_EVERY_SECONDS (120): one LIST ACTIVE per name prefix gives every
group's newest article, and new articles become ranges at priority -1,
leased and prefetched before any history. A group gets a tail range once
it has TAIL_MIN_ARTICLES (100k, a chunk) new or its last planning is
TAIL_MAX_DELAY_MINUTES (15) ago, so quiet groups don't make a range every
round. History (planAll, hourly) is now only for groups not planned yet.
ranges:plan --tail plans one round.
Found on the way: with XFEATURE COMPRESS GZIP on, Eweka compresses LIST
ACTIVE's reply too ("215 NewsGroups Follow [COMPRESS=GZIP]"), and
listActive waited for a plain end that never came (groups:add --top too).
It reads the compressed reply now; the fake server in the test does both.

On homelab (1 Gbit, 20 connections, ~630k articles/s) the coordinator
used 1.3-1.7 cores, mostly GC of the text it inflated only to know a
compressed reply was complete, plus a copy of every reply. A raw reply
is now complete when it ends in ".\r\n" (no copy): 0.4-0.5 cores at
the same rate.
".\r\n" can also end a network read inside the compressed data (~1 in
16M reads, a few dozen times over the whole target). Such a chunk
doesn't inflate on the worker: it reports it (POST ranges/:id/corrupt),
the spooled chunk is removed and the range goes back to the queue; the
prefetcher fetches it again. The rest of that reply breaks the
connection's next command, so the connection is replaced.

The coordinator's event loop was 16.5% busy at ~10 MB/s of compressed
XOVER (socket reads, buffers, GC, spool writes; nothing stands out), so
one process tops out around 60 MB/s: less than 50 connections bring
(~1M articles/s, ~70-86 MB/s). A shard prefetches the ranges with
id % n = i - 1 with its own NNTP_CONNECTIONS; only shard 1 plans, merges
and settles. Two shards of 5 connections fetched what one of 10 did.

It waited for every chunk in flight, and a connection the server held
back (after killed coordinators left sessions open) waits up to the
10-minute reply timeout: it never seemed to stop. It now waits at most
15 s, then closes all connections, busy ones too; the greeting and login
time out after 30 s. And run() ends with terminate(), as edge:node does.

The coordinator logs a line a minute: chunks fetched, articles/s,
seconds a chunk, how busy its connections were. It showed the
workstation's runs are bound by its 100 Mbit line now (10 connections
99% busy, ~89 Mbit/s: compressed XOVER is ~69 B an article on recent
boneless), not by the code.
The check that a compressed reply is complete (inflating it) ran on the
coordinator's event loop, ~60 ms a chunk; now on a thread-pool thread.

A lease was only granted for a range with spooled chunks, and the
prefetcher kept ranges ahead per active lease: once the spool ran dry a
worker got none and slept 30 s, fewer ranges were leased, fewer
prefetched. Three workers held one lease between them (~50k headers/s).
A lease now takes a spooled range first, else the next planned one
(leased ranges are fetched first; the stream waits).
crypto.hash instead of createHash().update().digest() for file and
release keys: same digests, ~2.5x faster (~4.6% of a worker's time).

The coordinator ran the prefetch tick in the same loop as the merger
(up to 30 s a minute): its connections went idle once their targets
were fetched, and the first leases after a start found nothing spooled.
The prefetcher now ticks in a loop of its own.
The prefetcher took the first planned ranges with nothing spooled, even
ones with nothing left to fetch (next_id past the end): two such ranges
(edge:bench's, set back to planned) kept it from fetching anything. It
and the lease query now skip those, and edge:bench marks its range done.

The merger's neighbour query matched "end_id = ? OR start_id = ?", which
no index serves: it read every range of the group per file, 5.5 s a
round and most of Postgres's time in an end-to-end run. Now the range
holding the article before and after, by (group_id, start_id): 0.08 ms.
The prefetcher's leased and started ranges (every 2 s) get partial
indexes: 15-25 ms -> <0.1 ms with 145k planned ranges.

Waiting files counted as work, so the merge loop re-read them for its
whole 30 s budget every minute: Postgres used ~a core even without
workers. Now ~4% at rest, and storing a boneless range costs Postgres
~0.7–1.9 s of CPU (it was 33 s with the loop running). Chunk payloads
are stored EXTERNAL (zstd already; no pglz attempt).

The neighbour check was three queries per file (~2,000 files/minute); now
one per round of 20k files, with a cursor so waiting files don't take
every round's places, and rounds until nothing is left or 30 s. On the
dev backlog (old-style fragments): ~18k files/minute in the 30 s budget;
at full throughput the new fragment rule leaves ~1,200 files/minute.
A group that fails GROUP (gone from the server) no longer stops planning

Files cut by a range's edge are put together once the ranges around them
are done (coordinator:run, every minute): a complete file is judged by the
rules and written as a release chunk with probe candidates; one still
missing parts while both neighbouring ranges are done is dropped and
counted (incomplete/edge). A neighbour not planned yet counts as not done,
except before the group's oldest article. BatchStore.writeReleases is the
shared write path.

End to end (workstation, recent a.b.boneless ranges from the spool): a 2M
range in 10–12 s, 166k–202k headers/s per worker process (edge:bench on
one core: 215k).
- Prefetcher: spooled_at was set against a total counted from the range's
resume point, which shrinks as the worker advances: the last chunks were
never fetched and the worker waited. Now counted against the whole
range, only new chunks counted, and leased ranges are always checked
against the files. Planned ranges ahead are bounded (it had spooled ever
more); the spool size is measured every 30 s (a stat per file).
- The stream sends an empty frame every 20 s while waiting for a chunk
(Node's fetch gave up on a quiet body after 5 minutes).
- A range taken over midway: the first batch starts at the resume point
(it started at the range's start and was refused).
- edge:node inflates the next chunk on the thread pool while indexing the
current one, and doesn't wait for a post before indexing on (posts stay
in order; a failed post stops the range).

End to end on the workstation (coordinator:run, the API, edge:node, real
NNTP): a.b.e-book.french and a.b.cd.image.playstation2.dvdiso ranges.
- Prefetcher: every connection takes the next missing chunk (leased
ranges first, in order); one connection per range (~26k lines/s) kept
the worker waiting
- executable rule: releases of bare executables (malware floods named
after films and software) are dropped; they were 92% of the catalog rows
of the test ranges, 21% of the segments
- fragments per file (details once) and gzipped batch bodies; the JSON
limit (1 MB by default) raised to 256 MB, empty strings kept (a rule
count's key is '')
- release_chunks.batch_from is a bigint (boneless article numbers)
- tests get their own database; edge:bench --store times BatchStore:
1.3 s for a boneless range (1.24 ms per release chunk)

- groups:add / ranges:plan / nodes:create / coordinator:run commands
- the node API: lease, the range's chunks as one framed stream from the
spool, batches, heartbeat, finish, release (node guard, token per node)
- edge:node: needs COORDINATOR_URL and NODE_TOKEN only (placeholders for
the rest), posts a batch every 10 chunks, gives its range back on SIGTERM
- releases are gathered per batch: 1.04 chunk rows per release at 10
chunks per batch (1.35 when built per XOVER chunk)
- partitions are checked per batch instead of remembered

A batch is stored in one transaction and only at its range's resume
point, so a retried batch can't count twice. Garbage is judged before
per-article: a dropped tool isn't worth reading bodies for either.
