+## Completed cross-platform RSS investigation
+
+The [reproducers, report](../../scripts/validation/opcua-lifecycle-memory/README.md)
+and [hashed evidence](../../scripts/validation/opcua-lifecycle-memory/evidence.json)
+preserve four failed canonical workload/profile attempts and the unchanged caps.
+A 30-minute Linux **diagnostic subset** completed on both versions: candidate
+768 cycles/192 restarts, original736/184. Candidate retained managed memory was
+19.25 MB, final RSS334.18 MB, with19,272 certificate wrappers created and disposed
+and none outstanding. It has **no full-gate pass** and omits canonical history,
+revocation, topology surgery and network-stall work. The original subset's growing
+managed/timer footprint cannot provide a favorable steady-state performance
+comparison denominator.
+
+EventPipe attributed a large late step to6,690 distinct generated standard-node
+factory methods receiving Tier1 compilation (49,141,484 cumulative native method
+bytes). A later180-second interval had zero SDK/factory JIT starts and zero lost
+events. These code-event sums are not RSS/PSS allocation measurements. This
+supports a finite compilation burst in the subset; full-workload saturation has
+not been established. macOS native Apple Security object retention continues
+independently. No narrow application workaround, factory swap, runtime flag,
+resource threshold change or acceptance-baseline reset was adopted.
+
+Astra reviewed the packaged sources/hashes/raw-receipt consistency/sanitization
+at integrated `6f793d25` and found no must-fix report/source issue. It approved
+only a **prospective diagnostic saturation design**, recorded in the report:
+384 fixed canonical cycles/96 restarts plus one settling cycle within1,800 seconds;
+fixed traced windows321–352 and353–384; zero generated-factory compilations,
+new SDK assembly loads and lost events; ownership checks active throughout.
+That experiment has not run and cannot pass G4. Matched full acceptance requires
+an original-SDK adapter for the identical canonical workload and at least7,200
+seconds **after** a prospectively reviewed fixed warmup. Historical failures and
+macOS native retention remain open in #799. No release approval was given.
