RAM Coffers– I built conditional memory for LLMs 27 days before DeepSeek'sEngram(github.com)

  On December 16, 2025, I developed "RAM Coffers" - a NUMA-distributed conditional memory system that selectively houses model weights in RAM banks with resonance-based     
  routing for O(1) knowledge retrieval.                                                                                                                                      
                                                                                                                                                                             
  On January 12, 2026, DeepSeek published their "Engram" paper (arXiv:2601.07372) describing the same core concept: separating static knowledge from dynamic computation via 
  O(1) lookup.                                                                                                                                                               
                                                                                                                                                                             
  Same idea. 27 days apart. No connection.

  Running on "obsolete" POWER8 hardware, I hit 147 tokens/sec on TinyLlama - 8.8x faster than stock llama.cpp.                                                               
                                                                                                                                                                             
  Sometimes the garage beats the lab.
