- CRITICAL FIX: Python output buffering caused silent failure
- Solution: python3 -u flag for unbuffered output
- 70% CPU optimization: int(cpu_count() * 0.7) = 22-24 cores per server
- Current state: 47 workers, load ~22 per server, 16.3 hour timeline
- System operational since Dec 1 22:50:32
- Expected completion: Dec 2 15:15
