16/// 9-byte file-format header written at the start of every kevy-managed
17/// AOF. `replay_aof` strips it before parsing RESP, so
18/// non-kevy bytes accidentally written into the AOF path (e.g. a deploy
19/// pipeline redirecting shell stderr into the file) get the same loud
20/// rejection as any other corrupt frame. Legacy AOFs (no magic) still
21/// replay — the parser only consumes the magic if it sees it.
22///
23/// Public so host-mediated AOF sinks (a browser pump appending kevy
24/// frames to its own storage, for example) can stamp files that stay
25/// byte-compatible with kevy-written logs.

30/// its time in the `write` syscall (perf-measured: SET 4 KiB, 52% in
31/// `write`/`ksys_write`, on both tmpfs and ext4). MMKV's mmap append
32/// pays no syscall at all; a larger buffer amortises the write across
33/// many appends the same way, without changing durability — `EverySec`
34/// still flushes + fsyncs once a second, so the crash window is
35/// unchanged (≤ 1 s) regardless of buffer size. 256 KiB holds ~64 4 KiB
36/// appends per syscall; per-shard cost is one such buffer.
