+// Was 30s. Live-measured this session under real multi-agent concurrent load

+// same machine): 74 of 94 total watcher restarts logged in one session were
+// heartbeat-stale kills, the dominant restart cause by a wide margin -- each
+// restart drops the process's memory back to near-zero then it climbs again
+// through a fresh cold-embed pass, which is the actual mechanism behind the
+// "memory grows to ~2GB then clears" pattern a user observed and correctly
+// flagged as inefficient. The busy_until shielding mechanism (see writeStatus
+// call sites in plugkit-wasm-wrapper.js) already protects genuinely-busy
+// single dispatches, but under real CPU contention from many concurrent
+// processes, even the setInterval-based busy_until REFRESH callback itself
+// can be delayed past the old 30s window before it fires -- a starvation
+// problem one level above the per-dispatch busy-window fixes already shipped
+// this session. Raising the stale threshold gives real contention more slack
+// before concluding a process is dead, trading a slightly slower true-dead
+// detection for far fewer false-positive kills-and-restarts (each restart is
+// far more expensive than the extra wait -- a full cold embed pass observed
+// taking 90-120s+ under load) -- a clear net win under the contention this
