Built as a sidecar for Noiseblind, CalorMap provides visual entropy analysis of obfuscated binary outputs. While less intensive than the primary engine, it inherits high-throughput hardware patterns.

The system utilizes the same barrier-based producer/consumer model to minimize I/O stalls. To optimize the memory footprint, the engine utilizes a 256-byte Look-Up Table (LUT) for color mapping.

By constraining the LUT to exactly 256 bytes, the entire structure resides within the L1 Cache. This eliminates CPU-bound computation effort for color value retrieval, transforming data into high-density PNG heatmaps with zero-latency overhead.
