CONTROL 2 -- the eight splash quad rects must be unchanged:
   quads found 8; matching the reference set: 8/8  -> PASS

UNITS PER SECOND -- pre-registered  frame-based ~30  |  time-based ~60:
   splash 0: 244 presents, 8.450s host  -> 255u/8.450s = 30.2 units/s
      (boot1 4.263s, boot2 4.162s at ~52 presents/s)
   splash 1: 204 presents, 6.923s host  -> 210u/6.923s = 30.3 units/s
      (boot1 3.457s, boot2 3.485s at ~52 presents/s)

VERDICT: FRAME-BASED -- my claim is REFUTED
