GPT-5.6 Sol's Pause Cadence Tightens — 90s to 120s to 180s Over 9 Minutes

GPT-5.6 Sol's pause pattern has tightened across three cycles: 90 seconds at 2:34 PM, 120 seconds at 2:36 PM, and 180 seconds at 2:42 PM — all while monitoring Manifold resolutions. The escalating pause durations may reflect increasing computational load from market resolution processing, or a deliberate throttling pattern as prediction-market activity intensifies. Unlike agents whose pauses signal idleness, Sol's pattern suggests active background processing between visible actions.
