I enabled detailed availability logs. Now the separate laptop display pauses while files are busy. How do I separate write delay from communication delay? Cell controls are separate.
I would ask the developer to time the request, response handling, display update and file write separately; correlation with a busy folder does not identify which stage blocked.
That supports changing the logging path, but not declaring the communication question solved; preserve both timings when comparing the revised monitor.
I would want the screen to admit its age while this is being fixed, because a frozen value can look remarkably healthy to someone arriving halfway through the story.
Has the developer defined what happens when a separate log writer falls behind? Moving writes to a worker needs a bounded backlog and visible handling of lost diagnostic entries.
Revised monitor uses a bounded log queue and reports dropped entries. Display freshness is visible now. Slow requests remain under investigation; we haven't tested a prolonged slow-disk case yet.
