- Hyperopt adapter now sets max_training_steps_per_epoch:
RTX 3050 (≤40GB) = 200 steps, H100 (≥40GB) = 2000 steps.
Without this, each trial trained the full dataset (2917 steps/epoch)
making hyperopt 11x slower than necessary on local GPU.
- adam_epsilon default 1e-3→1e-8 everywhere (conservative(), DQNConfig).
The old 1e-3 was a BF16 workaround (bf16(1e-8)=0 → div-by-zero).
Adam is now f32, so standard 1e-8 is correct.
- Early stopping enabled in dqn-localdev.toml (patience=20).
Hyperopt: 2 trials × 5 epochs in 132s (was ~20min). Zero NaN.
