To confirm the optimizer is actively tuning the system: Expected SHA256 (example): a1b2c3
Check Live Statistics:
sudo heuz stats --live
Verify Kernel Parameters: Check if the optimizer has overridden default kernel values (example):
cat /proc/sys/vm/swappiness
# Should reflect the value in config.yaml (e.g., 10)
