J asked for a much more sophisticated test using the 100k corpus from
the Rust legacy database. This commit ships:
scripts/cutover/multitier/main.go — 6-scenario harness with weighted
random selection per goroutine. Mixes search, email/SMS/fill
validators (in-process via internal/validator), profile swap with
ExcludeIDs, repeat-cache exercise, and playbook record/replay.
Scenarios + weights (cumulative scenario fractions):
35% cold_search_email — search + email outreach + EmailValidator
15% surge_fill_validate — search + fill proposal + FillValidator + record
15% profile_swap — original search + ExcludeIDs swap + no-overlap check
15% repeat_cache — same query × 5 (cache effectiveness)
10% sms_validate — SMS draft (≤160 chars, phone for SSN-FP guard)
10% playbook_record_replay — cold → record → warm w/ use_playbook=true
Test results (5-min sustained, conc=50, 100k workers indexed):
TOTAL 335,257 scenarios @ 1,115/sec
cold_search_email 117k @ 0.0% fail · p50 2.2ms · p99 8.6ms
surge_fill_validate 50k @ 98.8% fail (substrate bug below)
profile_swap 50k @ 0.0% fail · p50 4.5ms · ExcludeIDs verified
repeat_cache 50k × 5 = 252k searches @ 0.0% fail · p50 11.7ms
sms_validate 33k @ 0.0% fail · phone-pattern guard works
playbook_record_replay 33k @ 96.8% fail (substrate bug below)
Total successful workflows: ~250k+
Validator integration verified at load:
150,930 EmailValidator passes across cold_search_email + sms_validate
35 + 1,061 successful FillValidator + playbook_record (where the bug
didn't fire)
zero false positives on the SSN-pattern guard against phone numbers
Resource footprint at 100k:
vectord 1.23GB RSS (linear with 100k vectors)
matrixd 26MB, 75% CPU (1-core saturated at conc=50)
Total across 11 daemons: 1.7GB
Compare to Rust at 14.9GB — ~10× less even at 100k.
SUBSTRATE BUG SURFACED: coder/hnsw v0.6.1 nil-deref in
layerNode.search at graph.go:95. Triggers on /v1/matrix/playbooks/record
under sustained writes to the small playbook_memory index. Both Add
and Search paths can panic.
Workaround applied (this commit) in internal/vectord/index.go
BatchAdd: recover() guard converts panic to error; daemon stays up
instead of crashing the request handler.
Operator recovery procedure (also documented in the report):
curl -X DELETE http://localhost:4215/vectors/index/playbook_memory
Next record recreates the index fresh.
Real fix DEFERRED — open in docs/ARCHITECTURE_COMPARISON.md
Decisions tracker. Three options:
a) upstream patch to coder/hnsw
b) custom small-index Add path that always rebuilds when len < threshold
c) alternate store for playbook_memory (Lance? in-memory map?)
Evidence: reports/cutover/multitier_100k.md (full methodology +
results + repro + bug analysis). docs/ARCHITECTURE_COMPARISON.md
Decisions tracker updated.
