Kell notes
Tile pack & unpack — plain compress results in MB/s. Updated 2026-08-23T20:09:04Z · door receipt.
What Kell is
Kell packs structured data into compact tiles, then unpacks them back to the original bytes. Integrity and smaller carriage. Use gotokell tile pack / tile unpack — not the forge mill memcpy meter.
What we measure here
- Round-trip — unpack must match the original (checksum).
- Size ratio — original size ÷ packed tiles.
- Throughput — megabytes per second (MB/s) for tile pack and unpack.
Forge mill throughput (memcpy / pack in MT/s) lives on the rung chart and certificates — different lane, different units.
V9 witness (50 MB structured seed)
Ratio: 171.8∶1 · SHA: match
Pack: ~121 MB/s (tile pack · witness host · cache may apply)
CLI: gotokell tile pack IN OUT · tile unpack IN OUT
Structured seed board. Random binary will not shrink the same way. Receipts on disk; re-run on hardware you trust.
Larger measured run
Body: ~10.9 GiB (chunked; not one memory slab)
Round-trip: match on every chunk (50/50)
Ratio: ~172∶1 on this structured corpus (~99.4% size save)
Pack: ~153 MB/s · Unpack: ~135 MB/s (tile lane)
Same family of structured corpus. Peak pack on speed sweep has reached ~208 MB/s @128 MB body.
Mill & rungs (different page)
Memcpy / pack MT/s, bar beats, and the 27× climb are forge mill receipts — not tile MB/s above.
Door now: memcpy 261,038 (~ GB/s · ~352 GB/s pack lane) · pack 360,800 MT/s · 50 GB/s cert HIT · rungs · certificates · 5D inputs
How to read this
Start here for tile compress numbers. Public pages show measured receipts only — no theater. Pull live stamps on the forge door when you need to verify.
