  • docs: state every measured claim with its conditions and its limits Reworks all 21 wiki pages so that no performance claim can be read as saying more than the measurement supports. The measurement model is now stated once and authoritatively: JMH's score error is the half-width of a 99.9 % confidence interval over the measurement iterations of a single fork, which bounds dispersion within one JVM and says nothing about run-to-run variance. Every published comparison was re-graded against a mechanical significance rule and is labelled supported, indicative-only, or not usable. Ratios whose intervals overlap no longer carry a factor. The 8.00x loader figure is withdrawn. The two-thread 1.9x now carries the independent repeat that did not reproduce it next to the number rather than two pages away. What those repeats do establish - Falco's read time repeats at every thread count and Minestom's does not repeat above one - is stated as the asymmetry it is, not as a factor. Each page separates what was measured from what is reasoned from the code and what is judgement, cites the type or method behind every structural claim, and carries threats-to-validity and reproduction sections precise enough for a third party to attempt replication. Environment facts that were never recorded are marked as gaps rather than filled in. No measured number was changed.

  • Migrate the long-form repository documentation to the wiki Adds Anvil-Chunk-Loader, Light-Engine, Benchmarking (methodology and headline results), Project-Status, the five Rationale-* pages and the four Research-* pages, moved verbatim from the Falco repository's docs/, STATUS.md and README benchmark section. Internal links were rewritten to wiki page names; links to source files that stayed in the repository were rewritten to GitHub blob URLs; chart images stayed in docs/charts/ in the repository and are embedded here via raw GitHub URLs. Home.md gains Getting started / Background: rationale / Background: research groups above the existing Gradle build group.
