Run 6 ended neither frozen nor in GAME OVER: freeze_watch reported EMULATOR GONE
at 810s and the 1.1 MB Canary log simply stops mid-activity, with ZERO
occurrences of CRASH, Access Violation, GUEST-THROW, assert, Fatal or abort, and
no shutdown line.
Memory pressure is recorded as a suspect and explicitly not as a conclusion. The
cgroup had reached its 7 GiB ceiling (memory.peak == memory.max) with 4421
allocation stalls at the limit, and page cache - inflated by the disc-wide format
sweeps that read every .pak - was 4.68 GB of it. But memory.events:oom_kill is 0,
so the cgroup OOM killer did not do this, and nothing identifies what did.
Two operational notes fall out: /dev/shm/xenia_memory_* survives a dead run (342
MB resident) and run-canary only clears it at launch, and vm.drop_caches is not
writable here, so page cache can only be left to the kernel.
