Account for every crossed sampling interval.
Line 123 emits only one sample for any allocation that is at least one interval. Line 124 also discards any additional crossed intervals. A 1 MiB allocation with a 64 KiB interval records one sample, so est_bytes and type totals under-report that allocation by most of its size.
Track the number of crossed intervals and preserve the remainder when re-arming the countdown.

String::truncate can panic on a non-ASCII symbol name.
to_string_lossy inserts U+FFFD (three bytes) for each invalid byte in dli_sname. If a replacement character straddles byte index 72, n.truncate(72) panics because 72 is not a char boundary. Use a char-boundary-safe truncation.

Avoid interning computed method names.
method_name comes from the dynamic js_native_call_method bridge and may be computed. canonical_key allocates on each new name and replaces entries in the fixed per-thread table. This can cause avoidable allocation and GC churn for repeated unique names. Use a rooted transient key for dynamic names, or call canonical_key only for fixed runtime literals.

Mechanism, same session
PERRY_GC_DIAG=1 on a 400-character reply with this stack: the
[gc-primitive-dispatch] string_wrappers line and the primitive-method
fallback histogram are never emitted — no String wrapper is materialised
and nothing reaches the fallback during a reply, against names=1 calls=99008 receiver_chars=99008 before the stack. Copying minors per reply 81 → 78.
Rebased onto current main
This branch went CONFLICTING against main at c7361c87c (22 commits past
1d63fa91f) and is now rebased onto it, together with #9795 and #9800 above it.
Two things went with the rebase:
- the one conflict was in
gc/mod.rs, where main'salloc_census_init()and
this branch'salloc_sample::init_from_env()both landed ingc_init—
resolved by keeping both; - the
self-test-checkersred was the thread-local policy ratchet: the three
files this branch adds (arena/alloc_sample.rs,gc/diag_sites.rs,
gc/survival_diag.rs) declared rawthread_local!blocks. They now use
crate::perry_thread_local!, the same conversion main made forhot_diagand
alloc_censusin5112112ca.scripts/check_thread_locals.pypasses.
Re-deriving this change's own invariants on the new base, rather than trusting
a clean merge: main touched arena/, gc/, object/shapes*, box.rs,
intl/segmenter.rs and array/indexing.rs, and none of string/,
object/descriptor_state.rs, object/field_get_set/ or
builtins/formatting/ — so the two properties this PR establishes (every
reader of a boxed string's index attributes goes through the §10.4.3
synthesiser, and one-ASCII-character strings have a single mint point) have no
new writer or reader to account for.
The numbers above were taken with both binaries built from 1d63fa91f, which is
the honest comparison for this diff. A re-measure against a reference rebuilt
from current main is owed once one is published, since eleven of those 22
commits touch codegen.

Use crate::perry_thread_local! for both diagnostic thread-locals.
The checker scans this file for raw declarations, and thread_local_cold_allowlist.json has no entry for diag_sites.rs. This block therefore fails the checker and pays _tlv_get_addr on Darwin.

…l origins, allocation-site sampling Three instruments for the cc-perf campaign, all inert unless asked for. `PERRY_GC_DIAG=1` gains the lines that say WHY the collector ran: `[gc-trigger]` (every predicate input at each decision site), `[gc-full]` (the arm behind each synchronous full mark-sweep, counted per site), `[gc-budgeted] start/done` (steps, per-phase step time, root-scan share), `[gc-charge]` (mutator-assist / synchronous-full time per calling site, resolved to JS display names) and `[gc-survival]` (per copying minor, the root that first reached each surviving byte — shadow stack, native stack map, named scanner, remembered set by old-parent type — with transitive reach charged to the originating root through a parallel worklist origin vector). `PERRY_ALLOC_SITE_SAMPLE=<bytes>` samples the arena allocation sites byte- proportionally across the runtime allocators AND the codegen inline bump path (the mirrored inline block limit is capped at one interval while sampling, so the fast path returns to the runtime once per interval). The survival test is sabotage-checked: disabling the drain propagation charges the 40 elements to `worklist_drain` and the test fails on that row. The knob's OFF state and magnitude parse are pinned next to the other GC knobs. `gc_diag_enabled()` gets the per-thread test override the census already has, so the diag paths are testable without touching the process environment.

…iptors on the primitive-string path
Three allocations a JS program can never observe, found with the
allocation-site sampler (`PERRY_ALLOC_SITE_SAMPLE`) on the compiled
claude-code TUI, where they are the largest attributed source of garbage in
both the streaming turn and the render pass that follows it.
1. A one-ASCII-character string is now the canonical per-thread header.
`js_string_char_at` minted a fresh 32-byte heap string per character read,
and everything that walks a string a character at a time goes through it:
`s[i]`, `charAt`, string spread, the String-wrapper index installer. There
are 128 possible contents. The table has the same residency contract as the
small-integer string table next to it (longlived arena, `refcount = 0` so it
is never mutated in place, pinned out of the young generation) and rides
that table's existing root scanner rather than registering a 96th one.
2. Runtime-internal constant property names resolve through the intern table.
The `globalThis` builtin lookup, `x.constructor`, `toString` resolution and
primitive-method dispatch each built a fresh heap string for a literal name
on every call; `js_get_global_this_builtin_value` alone accounted for 133 MB
of the 990 MB one 3300-character reply allocates. `string::canonical_key`
routes them through the content-keyed per-thread table that
`js_string_materialize_to_heap` already uses, which is also what the
property read/write fast paths require of a key.
3. A `String` wrapper no longer stores a property descriptor per character.
ECMA-262 §10.4.3 gives every in-range index of a String exotic object
`{ writable: false, enumerable: true, configurable: false }` — a fact of the
class and the boxed length, not per-object state — so `get_property_attrs`
answers it from the wrapper's payload. Storing it cost, per boxed character,
a Rust `String`, a `PROPERTY_DESCRIPTORS` entry only a full collection's
dead-owner prune could reclaim, an owner-index entry, and one program-wide
`prop_plan_epoch_bump()`. A sloppy method call on a string primitive boxes
its receiver, so the TUI paid all of it per rendered line. A real stored
descriptor still wins, so `Object.freeze`/`defineProperty` on a wrapper are
unchanged.
`PERRY_GC_DIAG=1` also gains `[gc-primitive-dispatch]`: which
`<Builtin>.prototype.<method>` names reach the primitive-method fallback, how
often, and how many wrapper index properties they cost — the counter that says
whether a boxing fix ran.

descriptor_state.rs now reaches line 2133. It exceeds the project 2,000-line file-size cap, so the gate blocks this PR. Extract string_wrapper_index_attrs_tests into a sibling test module before merge.

What
Three allocations a JS program can never observe, removed from the string path.
All three were found with the allocation-site sampler this branch also carries
(
PERRY_ALLOC_SITE_SAMPLE=<bytes>), which attributes GC-arena bytes to thereturn-address chain that allocated them, on the compiled claude-code TUI.
1. One-ASCII-character strings are canonical.
js_string_char_atminted afresh heap string per character read, and everything that walks a string a
character at a time goes through it:
s[i],charAt, string spread, theString-wrapper index installer. A one-ASCII-character string has 128 possiblecontents. The table has exactly the residency contract of the small-integer
string table beside it (longlived arena,
refcount = 0so it is never mutatedin place, pinned out of the young generation) and rides that table's existing
root scanner rather than registering a 96th one.
2. Runtime-internal constant property names are interned. The
globalThisbuiltin lookup,
x.constructor,toStringresolution and primitive-methoddispatch each built a fresh heap string for a literal name on every call.
js_get_global_this_builtin_valuealone was 12.7 % of all attributed arenabytes in a 400-character reply — the same handful of literals, discarded one
call later.
string::canonical_keyroutes them through the content-keyedper-thread intern table
js_string_materialize_to_heapalready uses; aninterned key is also what the property read/write fast paths require.
3. A
Stringwrapper no longer stores a descriptor per character.ECMA-262 §10.4.3 gives every in-range index of a String exotic object
{ writable: false, enumerable: true, configurable: false }— a fact of theclass and the boxed length, never per-object state — so
get_property_attrsanswers it from the wrapper's payload. Storing it cost, per boxed character: a
Rust
String, aPROPERTY_DESCRIPTORSentry only a full collection'sdead-owner prune could reclaim, an owner-index entry, a meta-descriptor key
bit, and one program-wide
prop_plan_epoch_bump(). A sloppy method call ona string primitive boxes its receiver (
call_primitive_closure_value→js_object_coerce), so the TUI paid all of it for every rendered line. A realstored descriptor still wins, so
Object.freeze/definePropertyon awrapper are unchanged.
PERRY_GC_DIAG=1also gains[gc-primitive-dispatch]: which<Builtin>.prototype.<method>names reach the primitive-method fallback, howoften, and how many wrapper index properties they cost.
Why this shape
The cc campaign's
ARCHITECTURE.mdranking rule is "prefer removing work overmaking work cheaper". None of these is a threshold, a cache size or a pacing
constant: each deletes an allocation with no observable purpose, which is why
both CPU and resident memory move together.
Measured — offline mock-API claude-code TUI rig, node arm in the same session
Candidate
cc_gc3= this PR stack (#9794 + #9795) onmain12efed1, builtby
cc_relink. All runs serialized through the campaign's measurement lock;the 400-character footprint column is three repeats (footprint is bimodal
depending on whether a full collection lands in the window).
cc_base(main)CPU: 400-char reply −26 %, 3300-char −50 %, post-turn idle −42 %, typing −32 %,
keystroke echo p90 −73 %, short-turn −31 %. Memory: settled footprint after a
400-char turn 692 → 356–386 MB (−45 %), after a 3300-char turn 1360 → 628 MB
(−54 %), peak RSS −4 % / −13 %. Neither metric regresses; node remains the bar
and this does not reach it.
Mechanism (the counters that had to move)
PERRY_ALLOC_SITE_SAMPLE=65536, share of attributed GC-arena bytes in a400-character reply, before → after this stack:
Stringwrapper (boxed receiver)globalThisbuiltin name keyconstructorlookupGC_TYPE_STRINGbytes, streamed turnGC_TYPE_OBJECT_METAbytes, streamed turn[gc-primitive-dispatch]before:names=1 calls=99008 receiver_chars=99008,string_wrappers=99008 index_properties=99008. After: the line is neveremitted — nothing reaches the primitive-method fallback and no
Stringwrapperis minted during a reply.
The category that is now largest (ordinary property set, 43.5 %) is
Intl.Segmenter's per-segment record, which is PR #9769's subject.Tests:
cargo test -p perry-runtime --release -- --test-threads=1— 3150passed, 0 failed. Four new tests: two pin the canonical character table in both
directions (identity across calls, and non-ASCII unaffected), four pin the
synthesized
String-wrapper descriptors including that exactly ONE descriptorentry (
length) is stored for an eleven-character wrapper, that only canonicalin-range indices are synthesized, that a plain object is never treated as a
wrapper, and that a stored descriptor still wins.
