Regular surface distortion pattern towards end of larger first layers VC4
Although it's worth noting that my current testing and refinement includes potential mitigations for other factors that are not discussed in this thread and AFAIK are not generally well known. But again it's to early to share details as more concrete evidence is required first, to avoid unintentionally spreading misinformation.

Further to what @mazas noted https://discord.com/channels/582187371529764864/1293322335545196655/1313522115198320683, having developed potential mitigations based on bench test data, we are now evaluating and refining these potential mitigations with real printing. There appears to be some grounds for hope, but it's too early to say anything more concrete.

Pre-processing will cause firmware restart
It's unfortunate when they don't realise, eg if they switched months ago for some temporary reason, and didn't switch back.

Normally only devs and beta testers use the dev branch.

The specific issue you are seeing was fixed yesterday. We break things in the dev branch, do not use for production machines. If you go back to the regular branch you should delete all gcode files from the printer to avoid potential problems.

That's with rapido 2 plus, which may be significantly improved in this regard over earlier versions.

jammin is NOT okay, man. (filament regularly jams in heat break)
As some context: I recently ran tests trying to get a heat creep jam on a stock VC4. With no hot end fan and fully soaked passively heated chamber, I could not get a jam with pla or petg. Tests included a voronoi egg with low average flow rate and lots of retraction.

Print slows down at smallest imperfection of file (prusaSlicer)
Actually you can't try this klipper update yet, it requires some ratos changes.

There's a recent change in Klipper which might improve this. Worth updating and giving it a go. https://github.com/Klipper3d/klipper/pull/6747

Have you checked the belts yet? Can you do that first. XY distortion cold be a factor.

Yes. So just one part in the middle of the bed, not 10 at once or anything like that?

To be clear, these questions I'm asking about the prints are not related to the belt checking. That's a separate thing. You should focus on the belts first. These other questions are related to the top layer inconsistency from one day to the next.

I mean, what's the layout on the build plate. Screenshot from the slicer would show it.
