On first web load the sample stayed blank until a click/drag, then popped in. Root cause: the main draw + cull run before driveStreamingLoads in render(), so a chunk that becomes resident there is only painted a frame later. On desktop the streaming thread keeps inFlightApprox() > 0 during a load, so the render loop keeps ticking and the next frame paints it. On web the sync MEMFS / Blob load finishes instantly (inFlightApprox stays 0), so the single post-load requestFrame fired once and the on-demand loop went idle before the geometry was ever drawn — until some input re-armed it. Fix: arm a bounded settle burst (kStreamingSettleFrames) whenever there's streaming activity — a load this frame, work still queued, or a visible chunk not yet resident — and bleed it down over the next few frames, each requesting one more. Covers the cull→display latency under an on-demand loop and still quiesces at idle (no busy-rendering). General, not web-only. Regression test: the sample must render with NO pointer input — a centred patch (the framed cube) differs from a corner patch (background); a blank stall leaves both as background. Verified empirically with a no-interaction probe (canvas went from a static blank hash to a stable rendered one). 107/107 unit tests pass; 4/4 web smoke tests pass.

IfcOpenShell
IfcOpenShell is an open source (LGPL) software library for working with Industry Foundation Classes (IFC). Complete parsing support is provided for IFC2x3 TC1, IFC4 Add2 TC1, IFC4x1, IFC4x2, and IFC4x3 Add2. Extensive geometric support is implemented for the IFC releases IFC2x3 TC1 and IFC4 Add2 TC1. Extending with support for arbitrary IFC schemas is possible at compile-time when using C++ and at run-time when using Python.
In addition to a C++ and Python API, IfcOpenShell comes with an ecosystem of tools, notably including IfcConvert (an application to convert IFC models to other formats), Bonsai (an add-on to Blender providing a graphical IFC authoring platform), and many other libraries, CLI apps, and more. Support is also provided for auxiliary standards such as BCF and IDS.
