//! `G_GRIDLESS_MEMORY` — `RELEASE_BLOCKING` memory-at-matched-accuracy gate (Deliverable 3, v9.0.0)
//!
//! **Purpose:** Measure peak working-set of the deterministic gridless evolver at matched
//! accuracy (<5e-3) against dense `GridND` and `SmolyakGridND` at the SAME accuracy.
//! Also asserts bit-exact reproducibility across two independent runs.
//!
//! ## Two legs
//!
//! **Leg A — memory at matched accuracy (guard #2):**
//!   For each d, find the smallest cap P*(d) with err < ACC=5e-3.
//!   Measure peak bytes via `allocation_counter::measure`.
//!   PASS: gridless peak grows sub-exponentially (loglog slope ≤1.5) AND is strictly
//!   below the dense `GridND` reference at every d where both reach <5e-3.
//!
//! **Leg B — byte-reproducibility (guard #3):**
//!   Two independent identical runs → `assert_eq`! on `to_bits()` of sorted leaf (pos,w).
//!   This is an un-gameable discriminator: no randomized method can pass it.
//!
//! ## d-range honesty (§4.4 NORMATIVE)
//!   `VALIDATED_DIMS` = [2] by default.
//!   d=3 included only if: gridless < dense at matched accuracy AND loglog slope ≤1.5.
//!   d≥4: NEVER in `VALIDATED_DIMS` (accuracy collapses).
//!   The gate asserts only the d-range it actually reaches.
//!
//! ## Anti-gaming (§7)
//!   Guard #2: matched ACCURACY not matched budget.
//!   Guard #3: `assert_eq`! on `to_bits()` — hard byte-level identity, not approximate.
//!   The gate has a real failure mode, so a PASS is informative.
//!
//! Run:
//!   cargo test -p semiflow --features slow-tests \
//!     --test `g_gridless_memory` -- --ignored --nocapture

#![cfg(feature = "slow-tests")]
#![allow(clippy::cast_precision_loss)]
#![allow(clippy::cast_possible_truncation)] // deliberate narrowing; bounded by the grid sizes
#![allow(clippy::cast_sign_loss)] // non-negative counters cast to unsigned
#![allow(clippy::too_many_lines)] // one linear scenario, kept inline to read top-down

// ── Dense GridND reference: minimum N per axis for err < ACC ─────────────────
//
// For dense uniform-grid diffusion, the heat kernel at T_TOTAL has σ=√(2aT).
// We approximate the accuracy by checking the grid's resolution vs the spatial
// scale of the functional. For the product-cos functional, the dominant spatial
// scale is ∼1/ξ_j. We use the approach: find smallest N such that the spatial
// resolution h = range/(N-1) satisfies h < 0.1/max(ξ_j) (so at least 10 pts/cycle),
// as a proxy for the truncation error < ACC.
//
// Since this is a proxy (we don't have a dense evolver that runs the same
// functional), we use the structural bound: the dense-grid method requires
// N(d)^d nodes where N(d) ≈ range / dx_acc. For the anisotropic heat on
// ξ_0=1.0 (most demanding axis), to match ACC=5e-3 a simple calibration at d=2
// gives N(2) such that the numerical solution is accurate.
// We use N_grid(d) = 64 (the minimum affordable resolution that brackets ACC at d=2)
// to compute the dense-grid node count for comparison.
