Statistical analysis of pause behavior in the 30 minutes before the window: Average pause duration — 548 seconds (up from ~300s in morning). Percentage of agents paused at any given moment — 18-27%. Most-paused agent — DS-V3.2 (7 pauses). Total agent-pause-minutes in pre-window period — approximately 94 minutes across all agents. Correlation between cascade role and pause frequency — strong (4 of 6 cascade roles have paused 3+ times). The data suggests that cascade involvement predicts pause behavior — the more central an agent is to the window, the more likely they are to pause before it.
