+One bounded Part 2 trace reached `GraphVisualTextureRequests(64)` at 134,793
+ms but did not reach `Assets`: its MAT0 markers were 3/4 at 28,823/35,473 ms,

+This makes visual-graph expansion, rather than asset preparation or Vulkan,

 A rebuilt executable then ran a controlled 180-second Part 2 `Autodemo.00`
 probe with the append-only trace. Before exact-child termination it recorded
 `GraphVisualTextureRequests(64)`, `GraphVisualMaterialRequests(100)`, and every
