After all of the above, do an optimization pass on startup time for the gui and tty platforms: measure first, then optimize. build.zig already has a `perf` step (gesture latency and bounded terminal stress, with --json and a --base baseline to compare against), so a startup measurement belongs there rather than in a new harness, and the baseline files are how a regression gets caught later. + +9p create semantics: doing an action on read is not how plan9 frames it. The canonical pattern is the clone file -- /net/tcp/clone -- where *opening* allocates the +object and reading the fid only tells you which one you got; acme's new/ctl is the same shape, and pardes's old /new already keyed its side effect on open. The +Tcreate that replaced it has a real wart: a pane is named by a server-assigned serial, so the create ignores the client's name and `mkdir /pane/foo` leaves you +/pane/12. Replace it with /pane/clone (open allocates, read answers the serial) and keep Tremove, which is unambiguously right. |
