Critical Observations

1. Peak Usage: Iteration 9 with 18GB target/ directory
2. Automatic Cleanup: Iteration 10 freed ~18GB (external trigger)
3. No Low-Disk Alert: Never dropped below 91GB (threshold: 15GB)
4. Stable Growth: ~1GB per 2 minutes during build phase
5. Efficient Recovery: Rebuild after cleanup at similar rate

Memory Usage Patterns

Metric	Start	Peak	End	Variation
Used RAM	21GB	23GB	22GB	Stable ±2GB
Free RAM	4.4GB	1.2GB	5.6GB	Fluctuated with builds
Swap Used	550MB	2.4GB	2.4GB	Gradual increase
Available	9.8GB	7.1GB	8.4GB	Always sufficient

Analysis:

• No memory leaks detected (stable pattern)
• Swap usage increased gradually (not thrashing)
• Available RAM never critical (<7GB maintained)
• 31GB total RAM well-utilized (54-74% range)

Process Concurrency

Iteration | Cargo/Rust Processes | Phase
----------|----------------------|------------------
1         | 14                   | Initial builds
3         | 25                   | Ramping up
6         | 38                   | PEAK concurrency

Concurrency Analysis:

• Average: 12-15 processes (normal operation)
• Peak: 38 processes (iteration 6, high parallelism)
• Cleanup: 2 processes (iteration 10, minimal activity)
• Recovery: 8-23 processes (rebuilding after cleanup)

🧹 Cleanup Actions

Periodic Cleanup (Every 10 Minutes)

Iteration	Time	Action	Files Removed
5	14:31	Temp file cleanup	14 files
10	14:41	Temp file cleanup	1 file
15	14:51	Temp file cleanup	0 files (none found)

Automatic System Cleanup (Iteration 10)

Trigger: External cargo clean or build system maintenance

Results:

• target/ directory: 18G → 1.4M (99.99% reduction)
• Disk space freed: ~18GB

• Build artifacts cleared: debug/, release/, llvm-cov-target/

Impact:

• No manual intervention required
• System self-recovered from peak usage
• Rebuild phase started efficiently
• No data loss or corruption

# Removed during periodic cleanup
/tmp/*_failures.txt    (15 files total)
/tmp/*_output.txt      (cleaned)

# Auto-removed during iteration 10
target/debug/*         (~15GB)
target/release/*       (~864MB)
target/llvm-cov-target/* (~2.8GB)
