EF 3.1 single score: 1.16 µPt
About 80 seconds of an average person's yearly footprint in these categories. 4 of 16 categories, 45% of the EF weight. Fossil resource use is estimated from all primary energy, which overstates it; water scarcity uses the aware world average (1.0); the dutch factor is not loaded.

| Parsing the book with MinerU on the local RTX 5090 140.0 second of GPU work × 0.125 Wh Seconds are measured from the worker log and the job record: 40 s loading the vision model (18:33:08 to 18:33:48 local time) and 100 s parsing, chunking and uploading (18:34:27 to 18:36:07). The factor is assumed: the card's board power is 575 W and a busy parse is taken at about 450 W, 0.125 Wh a second. Not counted: the model server kept holding the card idle after the job, which it still does until it is stopped. | assumed | 17.5000 | 4.6900 | 60.078 |
Outcome. The book ingested into the library (202 passages, whole text, endnotes largely lost), read in full, reviewed in Ægir's voice against his own verified facts, every quotation checked word for word, 21 chips passed the chip gate, posted to café topic 327 (Private Room).
