Let me summarize what I&#8217;ve found:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>## Major Memory Hogs<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><code>EntitySync.entityCache<\/code> \u2014 unbounded JS object \u2014 grows without limit. Every unique IP seen becomes an entity. With 50 events\/2s = 25\/sec, this could be 90k\/hour. Each entity stores <code>{id, type, data: entity_data, provenance, lastUpdated}<\/code>. The <code>entity_data<\/code> object could be large (includes all metadata, geoloc, threat data).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><code>_diffPollIntervalId<\/code> \u2014 fires every 1000ms \u2014 but the diff itself is small. The <code>applySubgraphDiff<\/code> function may be accumulating subgraph data over time. Additionally, the hypergraph collection runs every 3 seconds and keeps fetching RF data with accumulating dataPoints, while the visualization updates every<br>5 seconds. Server-side, the <code>_seen_ips<\/code> set grows unboundedly, though that&#8217;s less of a concern. The gravity map fetches nodes and edges every 10 seconds but caps it at 300 nodes, which is manageable. Multiple event listeners on<br><code>EntitySync.update<\/code> are also firing repeatedly. The real issue is that when <code>EntitySync.connect()<\/code> gets called multiple times during reconnects, handlers keep getting registered without being cleared first\u2014each reconnect doubles or triples the handlers firing. Cesium entities like<br>viewshed rays are being added without corresponding removals, so they accumulate in the viewer. The recon panel&#8217;s <code>_newQueue<\/code> collects entities from SSE events and clears on each render, which should be fine if rendering happens<br>regularly. There are more handler-related issues to examine. The most impactful fixes would be capping the <code>EntitySync.entityCache<\/code> with an LRU eviction strategy around 10,000 entities, capping the server&#8217;s <code>_seen_ips<\/code> set at 50,000 with rotation, properly clearing handlers on reconnect<br>instead of just pushing duplicates, and rate-limiting the SocketIO <code>entity_event<\/code> emissions from the server. Now I&#8217;m prioritizing the implementation order: first I&#8217;ll batch the entity_event emissions on the server to reduce from 25 events per second down to batches every 2 seconds, then cap <code>_seen_ips<\/code>, implement the frontend cache limit,<br>fix the handler leak, and increase the diff poll interval to 3 seconds. Let me trace through how <code>broadcast_entity_event<\/code> works to understand where to inject the batching logic.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>\u25cf Find operator_manager broadcast mechanism (shell)<br>\u2502 grep -n &#8220;def broadcast_entity_event|class OperatorManager|_dirty_entities|broadcast.*dirty&#8221; \/home\/spectrcyde\/NerfEngine\/rf_scythe_api_server.py | head -20<br>\u2514 21 lines\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u25cf Read _update_all_dirty_entities and broadcast_entity_event (shell)<br>\u2502 sed -n &#8216;2887,2940p&#8217; \/home\/spectrcyde\/NerfEngine\/rf_scythe_api_server.py<br>\u2514 55 lines\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u25cf Find broadcast_entity_event definition (shell)<br>\u2502 grep -n &#8220;def broadcast_entity_event&#8221; \/home\/spectrcyde\/NerfEngine\/rf_scythe_api_server.py<br>\u2514 1 line\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u25cf Find broadcast_entity_event (shell)<br>\u2502 grep -n &#8220;def broadcast_entity_event|entity_event.*emit|operator_manager.broadcast&#8221; \/home\/spectrcyde\/NerfEngine\/rf_scythe_api_server.py | head -20<br>\u2514 4 lines\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u25cf Find broadcast_entity_event across all py files (shell)<br>\u2502 grep -n &#8220;def broadcast_entity_event&#8221; \/home\/spectrcyde\/NerfEngine\/rf_scythe_api_server.py \/home\/spectrcyde\/NerfEngine\/*.py 2&gt;\/dev\/null | head -10<br>\u2514 2 lines\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u25cf Find broadcast_entity_event definition system-wide (shell)<br>\u2502 grep -rn &#8220;def broadcast_entity_event&#8221; \/home\/spectrcyde\/NerfEngine\/ 2&gt;\/dev\/null | head -5<br>\u2514 1 line\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u25cf Read broadcast_entity_event implementation (shell)<br>\u2502 sed -n &#8216;1145,1200p&#8217; \/home\/spectrcyde\/NerfEngine\/operator_session_manager.py<br>\u2514 56 lines\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u25cf Continue reading broadcast &#8211; who calls socketio.emit (shell)<br>\u2502 sed -n &#8216;1200,1240p&#8217; \/home\/spectrcyde\/NerfEngine\/operator_session_manager.py<br>\u2514 41 lines\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u25d0 Now I have the full picture. Let me catalog all the bottlenecks:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>## Server-Side Bottlenecks<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><code>_seen_ips<\/code> set in ingest worker \u2014 unbounded <code>set()<\/code>, grows forever. With continuous stream ingest, eventually holds all IPs ever seen. In practice this is likely smaller (there are only so many unique IPs in a network), but it&#8217;s<br>still unbounded.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><code>operator_session_manager.entity_cache<\/code> \u2014 stores the full entity data dict for every entity. Also unbounded server-side.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><code>_log_entity_event<\/code> \u2014 writes to SQLite for EVERY entity event. At 25 events per second, that&#8217;s roughly 90,000 writes per hour, creating massive audit log bloat and overwhelming SQLite&#8217;s write capacity.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><code>broadcast_entity_event<\/code> emits SSE to all clients for every single new entity \u2014 with 25 events\/sec, the SSE stream is hammered. Frontend Bottlenecks<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><code>EntitySync.entityCache<\/code> \u2014 unbounded JS object \u2014 This is the biggest frontend hog. Each entity_event creates one entry. With entity_data potentially containing large objects (location, threat data, metadata, etc.), and entities<br>accumulating indefinitely, this grows huge.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><code>Entity Sync._notifyHandlers<\/code> called for every event \u2014 with potentially multiple stacked handlers from reconnects.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Multiple <code>EntitySync.on('update', applyEvent)<\/code> calls stacking up \u2014 at lines 19636, 20625, 20752, 21066. These are called during init. If init is called multiple times (e.g., on page navigation within SPA), handlers stack.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><code>_diffPollIntervalId<\/code> polls every 1000ms \u2014 fetches subgraph diff every second.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><code>collectHypergraphDataPoint<\/code> runs every 3000ms \u2014 accumulating data points over time.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Cesium <code>viewer.entities.add()<\/code> for viewshed rays (line 14049) \u2014 each call to visualize adds entities that persist. No cleanup.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><code>applySub<\/code> continues to process subscriptions \u2014 likely another source of accumulating event handlers or memory leaks. The most impactful fix is capping the <code>EntitySync.entityCache<\/code> size. With potentially 100k entities ingested over time and each carrying 5-10KB of data, that&#8217;s easily 500MB-1GB in the cache alone, but V8&#8217;s object overhead makes it<br>much worse. I need to implement an LRU eviction strategy that removes the oldest entries once the cache exceeds a reasonable threshold like 5000 entities. Implementing cache eviction\u2026 I&#8217;m realizing the periodic cleanup approach is better than per-insert eviction since it avoids the O(n) cost on every operation. Now looking at the server side, I need to batch entity_event emissions<br>instead of sending one SSE event per entity. But checking the code, broadcast_entity_event is called from three specific locations and not directly from the ingest worker, so the 25 entities\/sec from the stream aren&#8217;t actually<br>triggering that many broadcasts. The broadcasts happen when entities are registered through API endpoints. Let me trace through the ingest worker more carefully to understand where the actual bottleneck is. Looking at the potential<br>culprits for the 20GB memory usage, the entity count itself is too small to be the issue since the system starts with only 8 entities. The real problem is likely either memory leaks in animation loops that keep stale references, or<br>CesiumJS itself being extremely memory-intensive in the browser environment. I need to investigate what&#8217;s happening in the Deck.gl WebSocket handler and that render interval at line 7763, since those are the most likely sources of continuous memory accumulation.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>\u25cf Now I have enough to build a complete picture.

Speculative graph layer - this is new infrastructure:\n     - Server-side: `speculative_graph.py` or integrate into existing graph\n     - SSE endpoint `\/stream\/speculative`\n     - Promotion pipeline\n     - UI rendering for speculative vs validated edges\n\n  I need to check what we already have and what needs to be done.

Add `observations` and `evidence_score` to `ShadowEdge`\n  2. Upgrade promotion logic (confidence + evidence + observations)\n  3. Add SSE endpoint `\/stream\/speculative` \n  4. Add confidence-bump API `\/api\/shadow\/observe`\n\n  UI:\n  1. Add speculative edge overlay to gravity map (dashed lines, pulsing opacity)\n  2. Add speculative edge count to stream\/status panel\n  3. Wire `\/stream\/speculative` SSE to UI\n\n  Let me start implementing these changes, beginning with the transport layer fixes.\n\n\u25cf Good \u2014 shadow_graph.py is already the speculative layer. It needs: observations\/evidence_score fields, upgraded promotion logic, an SSE stream, and a confidence-bump API. Then wire the UI.

On the backend, I&#8217;ll create a <code>semantic_shadow.py<\/code> module that wraps the EmbeddingEngine and ShadowGraph to process entities, embed them, search for<br>similar ones, and create speculative edges that feed into the ingest worker. I also need that <code>\/api\/semantic\/pca-coords<\/code> endpoint for the Deck.gl visualization. Starting with the backend semantic layer first, then moving to the Deck.gl UI. For the Deck.gl layers, I need to think about data flow \u2014 validated edges and speculative edges both need source\/target positions from the network<br>entities&#8217; lat\/lon coordinates, so I&#8217;ll fetch both from the hypergraph and shadow graph respectively, similar to how the existing <code>flowEvents<\/code> layer works. The key insight is that validated edges should come from the same flow data stream but filtered by confidence threshold or known schema, rather than trying to reconstruct them separately. For the semantic layer, I need to resolve shadow graph node IDs to geographic coordinates through the entity position mapping, then use those resolved positions for the speculative edges. The semantic PCA space will get its own<br>geographic mapping so it renders alongside the flow data in Deck.gl. Now I&#8217;m mapping out the implementation: the backend needs to hook entity processing into the ingest worker and expose a PCA endpoint, while the frontend splits flows by confidence threshold, adds separate line layers for validated<br>(cyan, solid) and speculative (amber, dashed) flows, tracks promotion flashes from the SSE stream, and layers in a semantic scatter plot that refreshes periodically. The existing TripsLayer already handles the animated flow trails,<br>so I&#8217;m working within that constraint.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>\u25cf I have everything. EmbeddingEngine already has AVX2 FAISS, add_entity() + search_similar().

Moving Ollama wouldn&#8217;t change<br>FAISS&#8217;s ability to use AVX2 since FAISS is a Python library running in the local process, not dependent on Ollama&#8217;s location or capabilities. The real trade-offs would be latency (localhost vs. network call) and GPU acceleration &#8211; the Alma 9 VM has an RTX 3060 with CUDA support, while WSL2&#8217;s GPU passthrough is more limited, so moving Ollama might actually hurt inference<br>performance despite reducing network overhead. on WSL2 GPU config The honest answer: FAISS AVX2 already runs locally on the WSL2 VM and is independent of where Ollama runs. The embedding generation (Ollama&#8217;s job) and vector storage\/search (FAISS&#8217;s job) are separate concerns.

I need to implement:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>MMR (Maximal Marginal Relevance) \u2014 prevent redundant edges: when selecting which neighbors to link, penalize those already similar to previously selected neighbors. This prevents &#8220;pile-on&#8221; where 5 very similar IPs all link to each<br>other creating a dense, meaningless cluster.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Temporal decay \u2014 existing edges from semantic similarity should decay over time. This is partially handled by the TTL in ShadowGraph, but we should also reduce <code>confidence_delta<\/code> for bumps on old edges (the older they are, the<br>less each new observation matters). Also, when <code>process_entity<\/code> runs again for the same entity, the bump should be weighted by how long ago the edge was first seen.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Deduplication protection \u2014 avoid creating duplicate edges since ShadowGraph already handles this via dedup by edge_id, but I should check before calling to be safe. For the MMR approach, I&#8217;m implementing a function that selects k neighbors by balancing relevance to the entity against diversity from already-selected neighbors\u2026 Implementing MMR selection logic\u2026 I&#8217;m implementing a temporal decay function for evidence bumps so older edges contribute less weight, then I need to figure out how to access raw embedding vectors from the EmbeddingEngine since the<br>current search method only returns similarity scores but the MMR algorithm requires the actual vectors to compute diversity penalties. the approach is to fetch a larger candidate pool with <code>search_similar<\/code>, reconstruct their vectors<br>from the FAISS index, run MMR to pick the most diverse subset, then only push speculative edges for those selected neighbors. I&#8217;m also considering temporal decay when bumping existing edges\u2014scaling down the evidence and confidence<br>deltas based on how old the edge is to prevent stale observations from artificially boosting edges back up. For the entity embedding cache, I realize MMR&#8217;s relevance score already captures what we need from the query embedding, so we<br>don&#8217;t need to store it separately. Now I&#8217;m thinking through the pairwise similarities between candidates\u2014those are what drive the diversity term in MMR. I&#8217;m sketching out a function that fetches a larger candidate pool, filters out the query entity itself and anything<br>below the similarity threshold, then runs MMR to rank them by a balance of relevance and diversity. Implementing the MMR selection logic\u2026 Still writing MMR selection\u2026 Now I&#8217;m thinking through the temporal decay function and how to integrate it with edge deduplication \u2014 when an edge already exists in the shadow graph, I should apply decay to the confidence bump rather than treating it as a fresh<br>edge. I need to check what methods are available on the ShadowGraph API to see if I can retrieve an existing edge&#8217;s age and then scale the bump accordingly. The cleanest approach is to check if the edge already exists before pushing, compute how old it is, apply temporal decay to the deltas, and then use the observe method with those decayed values. This way fresh edges get full<br>confidence while bumps on stale edges get scaled down.
