Where the kernel spent time

Module timings from the canonical run. A 486.8-second wall run reached 15 steps; forces and identity updates were its largest named kernel costs.

The project

Local rules in a 3D field

Deep-Time evolves matter, energy, momentum, charge, phase, identity, memory, resources, and waste. The physics contains local equations; a separate analysis layer looks for structures afterward. This viewer averages the canonical final checkpoint from 256³ to 32³.

Observations & lessons

What the canonical run found

The saved run reaches 15 steps and is classified as total dispersion, with zero detected structures. Field variation alone does not establish persistent organization. The export makes that state inspectable, while the timing plot shows which kernels limited this configuration.
