The CI host gains a fourth thread and 4 GiB of RAM in the night to 2026-10-14, reaching about 9.8 GiB. Memory was plausibly the harder of the two limits: swap stood at 3 of 4 GiB, and a Gradle process that disappears with nothing in its log is consistent with an out-of-memory kill — though Werkator's system page recorded none, so that stays an inference.

That removes the kill but not the concurrency this pipeline asks for, so the split pull-request gate stays until it is measured rather than guessed. The measurement is written down instead of left in a conversation: build a throwaway branch with the full pipeline and put its duration against the deadlines. Comfortably under ten minutes argues for putting the second engine back on the pull-request gate; otherwise the split earns its keep.

Documents and plan only, no production or test code.
