Originally I thought that Gas Town was some form of high level satire like GOODY-2 but it seems that some of you people have actually lost the plot.

Ralph loops are also stupid because they don't make use of kv cache properly.

Problem:

Every gt command runs bd version to verify the minimum beads version requirement. Under high concurrency (17+ agent sessions), this check times out and blocks gt commands from running.

Impact:

With 17+ concurrent sessions each running gt commands:

- Each gt command spawns bd version

- Each bd version spawns 5-7 git processes

- This creates 85-120+ git processes competing for resources

- The 2-second timeout in gt is exceeded

- gt commands fail with "bd version check timed out"

I think it is satire, and pretty obvious one at that; is anybody taking it for real?

This is a cost/resources thing. If it's more effective and the resources are available, it's completely fine.
