* Check pure-serve in Pure, not in aupeunhhu2026-09-271-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | The HTTP host's end-to-end checks (documents against the earlier server, lending, kill -9 durability, JSON, timers, links, webhooks and answers) sat in aup's tests, so a change to the host was verified from the toolchain. They now live in tests/check.py; make check builds their apps with the sibling aup and runs them after the unit tests, which stay beside their parts. Design 009 states the rule for all three repositories.
* Read JSON bodies in place, groups included (082)eunhhu2026-09-271-0/+78
pure-serve no longer copies a JSON body's strings into the message's payload. The ingress is the prefix, a table of each field's start and size, and the body as it came; the connection thread scans the body once, puts numbers into the prefix and records where each string is. Only a string with escapes is unescaped, over itself (it never grows). A group of fields comes as an object inside the body and, for a fixed field, as its path in the query (?to.zip=7). A group where a field belongs, a value where a group does, an array or true/false/null is json_type; an unknown member, inside a group too, json_field. The string scan and UTF-8 checks now pass over eight bytes at a time while none needs a look (pure_utf8_step, so every text check gains). On the Pi, posting {"name":"k","text":"x..."} to a stateless app went from 652-655 to 3,737-3,953 requests/s with 256 KiB of text (server CPU 1.52 to 0.25 ms a request, peak RSS 5.2 to 3.2-3.4 MiB) and from 29.1k to 76.3-76.7k/s with 4 KiB; the load generator gains a json method and benchmarks/http/echo.aup is the app.
