	2	+
	3	+	How NeferWL keeps its CPU and memory use low, how to measure it, and the reference numbers to compare against.
	4	+
	5	+	## Design
	6	+
	7	+	- No reflection on the FFI boundary. libwayland and Vulkan are called through `purego.Syscall6/Syscall15` (fixed arity, zero allocation) and C calls back into Go through `purego.NewCallbackInts`. The Vulkan dispatch tables are generated methods; the libwayland wrapper caches resource id, version and client, and precomputes request argument counts.
	8	+	- No allocation per frame or per request on the steady-state path. Frame callbacks, presentation reports, DRM flips, Vulkan submissions and surface updates reuse owner-goroutine scratch or immutable snapshots. Surface updates (one per `wl_surface.commit`) are recycled once no queued update references them.
	9	+	- Default GOGC. The Go live heap is a few MB (client buffers live in shared and GPU memory), so the runtime default `GOGC=100` with a 256 MiB soft limit gives 2 collections on the tiled playback test where `GOGC=50` gave 13. `GOGC` and `GOMEMLIMIT` from the environment win.
	10	+
	11	+	## Guards
	12	+
	13	+	`make perf-check` runs `testing.AllocsPerRun` guards that fail when a hot path starts allocating: tiled SHM scene walk, tiled commit publication, headless tiled playback, steady-state `Render`, DRM report and flip snapshots, pacer bookkeeping, surface update recycling and input-region traversal. Run it with `make check`.
