v2 counts every KeWaitForSingleObject call per thread per second, tracks how many
distinct objects it saw, and logs the last result. Its HEALTHY baseline is a
result on its own: over a full 22-minute run the main thread cleared 500 calls/s
in 224 separate windows, peaking at 1235 calls/s over up to THIRTEEN distinct
objects, and the last result was X_STATUS_SUCCESS in all 314 windows. Not one
timeout.
So the game normally does hundreds of successful waits a second across many
objects - exactly the blind spot v1 could not see, and the reason a timeout-streak
counter reported the same single poller whether the game was frozen or healthy.
Stated as a consequence rather than a triumph: 500/s is NOT self-selecting, since
the main thread clears it constantly, so the freeze signal has to be a different
shape - a thread far above 1235/s, a new thread, or a window whose result is not
SUCCESS. That still needs a frozen sample; run 5 ended in GAME OVER at ~22 min
without freezing.
freeze_watch.sh now summarises the rate probe per thread when it captures.
