--buffer-samples (k/M/G) replaces --buffer-mb: the request is rounded down to a
power of two for every signal and the shared time ring. A separate memory limit
(--memory-limit-mb, a Preferences row, default 8 GiB) halves the plan until the
real ring bytes fit and says so on stderr and in the status line. The per-source
key buffer_mb becomes buffer_samples; an old buffer_mb is ignored.

GTK4 defaults to Vulkan, and an X11-forwarded display has no device to make a
swapchain from; the plot is a GtkGLArea, so it then asks for a GL context that
is not there either. --renderer cairo is the software preset for that display:
it exports GSK_RENDERER=cairo and LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=1 in main() before
gtk_init()/adw_init(), because both are read when the renderer and the context
are created. --renderer gl is the faster choice when indirect GL works, and
--renderer vulkan makes the default explicit. Nothing is exported, and GTK's
own choice stands, when the option is absent.
The once-a-second header line is now behind UDPSCOPE_PROBE_HEADER, following
the [notrace] rule: its widths are still sampled for the exit dump, but the
line is detail behind that reading rather than output every run prints.
UDPSCOPE_PROBE_RENDERER prints the exported pair before GTK starts and the
GskRenderer GTK actually built.
README, the manual's overview and docs/claude record the two symptoms and the
cure.
The loader pushed one slot per file row while the plan decimated by
eight, so a 10 M-row file overran the ring and only its last 4.19 s
survived -- a 20 s recording that read as a 4 s one. Each group of
`time_stride` rows is now averaged into one slot at the group's mean
stamp, as the packet path already does, and the load line reports
rows and decimation so a filtered file cannot be mistaken for a
truncated one.

GTK4 and libadwaita. It receives one UDP stream through the vendored
udpsclient, buffers it in a large ring, and draws it with the vendored
plotter: a trigger with a pre/post event window, a pause that freezes the
window, cursors, measurements, math channels in a node editor, an event cache,
named configurations, preferences, and an export of the visible window to
.npy/.csv. Waveform files can be opened and analysed in place.
The interface is two threads -- a producer that owns the socket and the GTK
main thread that owns every widget and the GL context -- sharing one model
under one mutex, with samples crossing through lock-free rings.
deps/plotter is a submodule pinned to the commit this tree builds against;
deps/udpsclient is vendored in place. docs/claude/ documents the rules that
cost a defect to learn, and SPECS.md is the requirement document.
The chooser runs before ScopeModel exists, so declining costs no buffer and no
socket. UDPSCOPE_PROBE_SOURCES=1 prints what the discovery found and exits,
before gtk_init(), so the list is checkable with no display.
