dlrmv4: replace the GBS 8192 RCP with a GB300 rerun of the reference - #478

Conversation
The AMD set for GBS 8192 came from three campaigns; the 3 h campaign's stalled runs were replaced by new seeds, so the 20 runs carry one run above 80 M samples while 20-seed reruns of the reference code show five. The new entry is 20 seeds chosen as ventile midpoints of a 179-run distribution and run with the unmodified reference (mlcommons/training b5e8e2a) on 2x4 GB300, uncapped, each run to the 0.75 AUC target. Olympic mean 73.02 M (was 69.07 M), std 6.69 M (was 3.81 M), checker floor 68.16 M (was 66.30 M). Other batch sizes unchanged.

WG meeting notes (10/1/26):
WG decided to require N=12 runs (drop 2 slowest and 2 fastest) instead of N=10 to work around this. Apply this for all GBS. Need to apply logging and rules. @matthew-frank will make these PRs. |

@mmarcinkiewicz and @ShriyaRishab: We have had an extensive internal discussion on this:
Based on that, we are against changing the RCPs on a short notice. However, the longer runs are a concern. Our offer to improve this is to do a 1/3 removal out of 12: Remove 1 shortest run and 3 longest. |

Miro,
this is actually you shooting yourself in the foot - the submission is supposed to be run on random seeds, so using fixed, you would miss (as we have till now) that there are bad seeds till you actually see them in your submission - what would you do then? Just rerun with a different seed? This is something we'd like to avoid for everyone. However, what we can do one time, and on a non-precedent setting basis, to allow you (and everyone else) to run with the same seeds the submission is using, so everyone converges more or less the same. What do you think about that? |

GBS16k and GBS32k look alright. The proposed RCPs represent the true distribution very well
