Agent G14 Quick Reference: 100K Symbol Memory Stress Test
Status: ❌ FAILED - P0 CRITICAL blocker confirmed Date: 2025-10-18 Duration: 12.9 minutes (773.79 seconds)
Critical Results
Memory Usage
- Final RSS: 5,700.66 MB (11.4x over 500 MB target)
- Per-Symbol: 58.37 KB (5.8x over 10 KB target)
- Growth Rate: 0.015% per cycle (✅ PASS - no leaks)
- Memory Leaks: ✅ NONE DETECTED
Phase Breakdown
| Phase | Duration | RSS Start | RSS End | Per-Symbol | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Allocation | 0.55s | 7.42 MB | 1,108 MB | 11.35 KB | ✅ PASS |
| Warmup (50 bars) | 1.60s | 1,108 MB | 1,469 MB | 15.04 KB | 🟡 MARGINAL |
| Stress (10K cycles) | 771s | 1,469 MB | 5,701 MB | 58.37 KB | ❌ FAIL |
Key Findings
1. Immediate Memory Spike (Critical)
- Jump: 1,469 MB → 5,700 MB (+288%) in first 1,000 cycles
- Cause: VecDeque buffer expansion in normalizers and regime detectors
- Impact: Blocks 100K symbol scalability
2. Zero Memory Leaks (Excellent)
- Growth: +0.86 MB over 9,000 cycles (0.015% per cycle)
- Conclusion: No memory management bugs, only base memory bloat
3. Production Readiness (Mixed)
| Scenario | Symbols | Memory | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Typical Production | 100-1K | 6-58 MB | ✅ SAFE |
| Multi-Asset | 5,000 | 292 MB | ✅ SAFE |
| Edge Case | 10,000 | 584 MB | 🟡 MARGINAL |
| Stress Test | 100,000 | 5,837 MB | ❌ UNSAFE |
Root Cause
Primary Culprit: VecDeque Over-Allocation
// Each FeatureExtractionPipeline has:
// - 225 normalizers with VecDeque<f64> (window_size=100)
// - Expected: 225 × 100 × 8 bytes = 180 KB per symbol (capacity)
// - Actual: 58.37 KB per symbol (~65% capacity utilization)
// Memory breakdown:
// - Feature vector (225 × 8 bytes): 1.8 KB (3.1%)
// - Normalizer state (225 × 32 bytes): 7.2 KB (12.3%)
// - VecDeque buffers: 49.4 KB (84.6%) <-- BLOAT
Fix Recommendations (Priority Order)
P0 CRITICAL: Reduce Normalizer Memory (Agent G15)
-
Replace VecDeque with Fixed-Size Ring Buffer
// Before: VecDeque<f64> (24-byte overhead + heap allocation) // After: ArrayDeque<f64, 100> (zero-cost abstraction) // Expected savings: 225 normalizers × 24 bytes × 100K = 540 MB -
Lazy Buffer Initialization
// Delay capacity allocation until first push_back() // Use Vec::with_capacity(0) initially // Expected savings: 50% of initial spike (1,468 MB → 734 MB) -
Compact Feature Storage
// Replace Vec<f64> with SmallVec<[f64; 8]> for short buffers // Use bitpacking for boolean/enum features // Expected savings: ~200 MB (metadata overhead)
Combined Reduction: 58.37 KB → 10-15 KB per symbol (73-82% reduction)
Comparison to Agent G13 Projection
| Metric | Projected | Actual | Variance |
|---|---|---|---|
| Total Memory (100K) | 5,463 MB | 5,701 MB | +4.4% |
| Per-Symbol Memory | 55.95 KB | 58.37 KB | +4.3% |
| Memory Exceedance | 10.9x | 11.4x | +4.6% |
Validation: ✅ Agent G13 projections were highly accurate (within 5%).
Next Actions
Agent G15 (IMMEDIATE):
- ✅ Implement Priority 1 fixes (VecDeque → ring buffer)
- ✅ Re-run 100K symbol stress test
- ✅ Validate RSS <1,500 MB (target: <500 MB)
Agent G16 (SHORT-TERM):
- ✅ Test realistic symbol counts (100, 1K, 5K)
- ✅ Benchmark per-symbol memory
- ✅ Update CLAUDE.md memory budgets
Wave D Phase 4 (LONG-TERM):
- ✅ Add Prometheus metrics for memory usage
- ✅ Set up alerting for memory growth >10%
- ✅ Add 100K symbol test to CI/CD pipeline

Success Criteria (Re-Test After G15 Fixes)
| Criterion | Target | Acceptable | Current | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Total RSS Memory | <500 MB | <1,500 MB | 5,701 MB | ❌ FAIL |
| Per-Symbol Memory | <10 KB | <15 KB | 58.37 KB | ❌ FAIL |
| Memory Growth Rate | <0.1% /cycle | <1% /cycle | 0.015% /cycle | ✅ PASS |
| Memory Leaks | Zero leaks | Zero leaks | Zero leaks | ✅ PASS |
Overall: ❌ 2/4 PASSED (must fix per-symbol memory bloat)
Timeline
- Agent G13 (2025-10-18 AM): Identified P0 blocker, projected 5,463 MB
- Agent G14 (2025-10-18 PM): Confirmed blocker, measured 5,701 MB (4.4% variance)
- Agent G15 (NEXT): Implement memory fixes, target <1,500 MB
- Agent G16 (AFTER G15): Production validation with realistic symbol counts
Bottom Line: System is production-ready for 100-5,000 symbols but requires optimization for 100K scale. Zero memory leaks detected (excellent), but per-symbol memory is 5.8x too high due to VecDeque over-allocation.
