Open-core (pure-TS) latencies from tests/benchmarks/find-composition-scale.js: vector and
graph scale ~log(n) (~1.4ms / 0.65ms p50 at 100k); metadata-filtered paths scale with the
match-set size (low-selectivity worst case), which is the path the native provider
accelerates. Composition correctness cited to the triple-composition test. States the
open-core build ceiling (~10^5-10^6) and the native-provider path beyond.
The old config-generation subsystem (src/config/ + autoConfiguration.ts) was
superseded during the 8.0 rework and never wired into init(): it emitted settings
for a partitioning subsystem that no longer exists and probed deleted cloud env
vars. The live zero-config path is inline — recall preset → HNSW knobs, storage
auto-detect, auto persistMode, container-memory-aware cache sizing.
The storage progressive-init / cloud-detection cluster was equally dead after the
cloud adapters were dropped: isCloudStorage() is permanently false (no overriders),
scheduleBackgroundInit/runBackgroundInit were never called (the latter an empty
body), initMode was never assigned, and Brainy.isFullyInitialized()/
awaitBackgroundInit() were always-trivial with zero callers. scheduleCountPersist()
collapses to its only-ever-taken immediate write-through path.
Removed:
- src/config/{index,zeroConfig,storageAutoConfig,modelAutoConfig,sharedConfigManager}.ts
- src/utils/autoConfiguration.ts + the inert BrainyZeroConfig export
- Brainy.isFullyInitialized()/awaitBackgroundInit() (+ BrainyInterface decls)
- InitMode type, isCloudStorage/detectCloudEnvironment/resolveInitMode,
scheduleBackgroundInit/runBackgroundInit/ensureValidatedForWrite and their state
- Dead cloud env-var probes (K_SERVICE/K_REVISION/AWS_LAMBDA_FUNCTION_NAME/
FUNCTIONS_TARGET/AZURE_FUNCTIONS_ENVIRONMENT)
Kept (verified live): production-detection logging (environment.ts), container-
memory cache sizing (memoryDetection/paramValidation), on-disk hash bucketing
(sharding.ts).
Docs: scrubbed deleted-subsystem references (JS quantization knobs, cloud/OPFS
adapters, partitioning, old zero-config API) across 14 files; deleted two wholly-
obsolete feature docs (complete-feature-list, v3-features); rewrote
architecture/zero-config for 8.0.
~3,700 LOC removed. Build clean; 1392 unit + 24 db-mvcc green.
