Content r from Center smears out to r / (1 - s), so the buffer is padded by
the farthest corner's reach (capped at 4096, skipped on adjustment layers),
on the CPU and GPU paths alike.
After Effects weighs each of the four points by its inverse squared
distance softened by Blend squared, 1 / (d^2 + Blend^2) in pixels: fitted to
AE 2026 renders of the default gradient at Blend 10, 100 and 300 and case
904 E16 at Blend 50 (power 2.00 at every Blend, softening 0 / 2367 / 9817 /
90127 = about Blend^2; mean error 0.27/255, max 0.9). EffectCraft used
1 / (d^2 / (100 Blend))^1.5, in which Blend cancels out: E16 was 34/255 off
on 99 % of the grid, now 0 grid points off, max 1/255, CPU and GPU.

- gpu: pooled working textures (released once every encoder that could read
them is submitted), shared zero images, reused readback staging buffers,
direct readback into Image; NaN-poisoned scratch images under test and
NaN-aware diffs; validation errors panic under test
- render: AutoPick (per comp / scale / path EWMA of CPU vs GPU frame times,
warm-up and periodic re-probe) behind Backend::Auto; viewer uses it too;
cached adjustment footprints (uploaded once)
- gpu fx_warp: Warp, Bezier Warp, CC Bend It, CC Page Turn, Smear, Reshape,
Color Emboss, Cartoon; sliding-histogram median for large radii; CC Power
Pin perspective < 100
- cli: bench --gpu reports Auto and per-frame upload / readback MB

Kernels in fx_generate.wgsl mirror the CPU effects; wipe edges use f64
per-column/per-row terms uploaded as (hi, lo) pairs. CPU helpers shared
with the GPU are now public (camera_lens_spans, gen_mode, pattern_kind,
GrainLook, place_layer). GPU tests in tests_fx_generate.rs.
