RustProxy 0.24.8 dashboard cache-memory audit

Scope

0.24.8 is a dashboard-focused patch. It does not change cache admission, HOT/COLD ownership, persistence, memory limits or cache protocol behavior. It exposes the existing runtime counters more clearly in the overview and reduces permanent explanatory text.

Overview cache charts

The Cache RAM card now retains the HIT/MISS/BYPASS activity chart and adds/extends resource histories:

• HOT RAM usage / limit uses the cache resident/charged byte history and scales it against hot_limit_bytes when a finite limit is available.
• Transient RAM usage / limit tracks total transient bytes and overlays fill bytes, the byte-bounded COLD writer queue and active COLD read/write I/O buffers on one shared scale. These series are diagnostic lines, not additive stacked accounting.
• COLD storage usage / limit tracks persistent COLD bytes against cold_limit_bytes. This is disk/storage occupancy and is deliberately not included in process RAM accounting.

All histories keep the existing bounded 60-sample browser-side window and are populated from the already-authenticated /api/status payload. No new endpoint or cache-runtime allocation is introduced.

Memory-accounting explanation

The translated memoryAccountingHint text remains unchanged in meaning but is no longer displayed as a permanent paragraph. It is shown on demand from an accessible information control in the Process heading.

Verification

Offline source checks assert the new chart IDs/history arrays, the retained accounting hint, the information control, release identity and language keys. JavaScript syntax, language JSON parsing, source-package checks and release smoke checks remain part of the standard release verification. Compiler/browser/live-load acceptance remains a release-host gate where those runtimes are available.
