T5 — send_after addresses a registered atom name; the delayed message
lands in that process's mailbox (destination resolved at fire time,
dead/unregistered targets drop silently).
T6 — gen_server loop now handles the {reply,R,S,T} / {noreply,S,T}
timeout-bearing callback returns by scheduling {timeout} to itself via
send_after; handle_info({timeout}, S) fires when no other message
arrives first. Sanity-checks the library hookup.

T3 — concurrent timers fire in deadline order, not schedule order
(scheduler jumps the clock to the earliest pending deadline each
time the runnable queue drains). T4 — cancel_timer on an
already-fired timer returns the atom false.

Logical-clock timer wheel in the scheduler. send_after schedules a
message-delivery event at an absolute deadline (clock + Time ms);
cancel_timer marks a live timer cancelled and reports remaining ms,
or false. Time advances only when the runnable queue drains, jumping
to the earliest pending deadline (deterministic, no wall clock).
monotonic_time/0,1 exposes the logical ms clock.

Phase 1 of the jit-perf-regression plan reproduced and quantified the alleged
30× substrate slowdown across 5 guests (tcl, lua, erlang, prolog, haskell). On
a quiet machine all five suites pass cleanly:
tcl test.sh 57.8s wall, 16.3s user, 376/376 ✓
lua test.sh 27.3s wall, 4.2s user, 185/185 ✓
erlang conformance 3m25s wall, 36.8s user, 530/530 ✓ (needs ≥600s budget)
prolog conformance 3m54s wall, 1m08s user, 590/590 ✓
haskell conformance 6m59s wall, 2m37s user, 156/156 ✓
Per-test user-time at architecture HEAD vs pre-substrate-merge baseline
(83dbb595) is essentially flat (tcl 0.83×, lua 1.4×, prolog 0.82×). The
symptoms reported in the plan (test timeouts, OOMs, 30-min hangs) were heavy
CPU contention from concurrent loops + one undersized internal `timeout 120`
in erlang's conformance script. There is no substrate regression to bisect.
Changes:
* lib/tcl/test.sh: `timeout 2400` → `timeout 300`. The original 180s deadline
is comfortable on a quiet machine (3.1× headroom); 300s gives some safety
margin for moderate contention without masking real regressions.
* lib/erlang/conformance.sh: `timeout 120` → `timeout 600`. The 120s budget
was actually too tight for the full 9-suite chain even before this work.
* lib/erlang/scoreboard.{json,md}: 0/0 → 530/530 — populated by a successful
conformance run with the new deadline. The previous 0/0 was a stale
artefact of the run timing out before parsing any markers.
* plans/jit-perf-regression.md: full Phase 1 progress log including
per-guest perf table, quiet-machine re-measurement, and conclusion.
Phases 2–4 (bisect, diagnose, fix) skipped — there is no substrate regression
to find. Phase 6 (perf-regression alarm) still planned to catch the next
quadratic blow-up early instead of via watchdog bumps.
