The published Shiu et al. leaky integrate-and-fire brain model rebuilt in MLX with hand-written Metal kernels. The project reports 0.29 s per biological second for FlyWire v630 (127,400 neurons, 14,687,178 edges) on an M4 Pro against 62.6 s for its Brian2 reference on the same machine; the benchmark JSON is committed. Shiu's run_exp arguments and parquet files work unchanged, MaleCNS v1.0 runs in the same engine though its spike counts are not comparable, four lanes are pinned to one spike-count SHA-256, and a degree-preserving shuffled wiring is kept as a control, where MN9 stops firing.
