+/* moe-expert-stream.js — keep a mixture-of-experts model's routed experts on SSD (OPFS) and

+ * expert record (its byte layout in the OPFS file and which GPU pool buffer each part goes
+ * to); this module owns the slot LRU, the reads, the uploads, the pins and the counters.
+ *
+ *   const xs = new ExpertStreamer({ device, reader, recordBytes, recordOffset, parts, slots,
+ *                                   numLayers, numExperts });

+ *   xs.prefetch(layer + 1, predictedIds);               // optional, never blocks
+ *
+ * `parts`: [{ buffer: GPUBuffer, srcOffset, bytes }]. Slot s of a part lives at s × bytes in
+ * that part's buffer, so a kernel finds expert row r of slot s at s × rowsPerExpert + r.
+ *
+ * Safety of reuse: an upload (a staging-ring copy, or queue.writeBuffer) is ordered after every
+ * earlier queue.submit, so a slot may be overwritten as soon as the work that reads it has been
+ * submitted, even if the GPU has not run it yet. Until then the slot is pinned and never chosen

+ * grows with what is written, so files grow by writes rather than one up-front truncate. The manifest is written

+ * from there instead of from byte 0.
+ * Extracted from LocalMind's qwen3_moe_ssd.js (2026-10-05); `root` and `format` are new options (LocalMind
