Subject: Independent timing witness for native_mill (memcpy/pack)

Hello —

Brian King, Hitme (Santa Paula CA). We published a small reproducible
method pack: two measured Linux lanes only — memcpy and pack rates.

Ask: 1–3 hours to run or observe, then one paragraph (host, OS, clock, MT/s).
Not asking co-sign of optical Pbps, FTL, or absolute zero-heat claims.

Pack: https://gotokell.hitme.dev/method_rung1/

Thank you — referral or lab hour welcome.

=== BRI ORDER (amen) ===
  A) LEAP LAB walk / call this week (local)
  B) Ventura College via Sarah path
  C) UCLA CTRL email (computing, not oncology desk)
