i only benchmarked for an hour. but Aloft does a lot of asynchronous processing as nameplates become visible, so in effect its on a variable timer. i will test some more, as you suggest, and look for variation over time.

there is a small (tiny/neglibible, a few kB per hour) amount of leakage when nameplates are disabled. it is always possible Aloft is not responsible for that (i.e. Ace2 or another embed). i will disembed and see if that changes.

as for the rest, thanks much, Shadowed. i will do all of the above.
