# ============================================================================
# Seurat integration — GPU PCA on large objects (context-sizing fix check)
# ============================================================================
# Exercises the Vulkan PCA path on matrices large enough that the old fixed
# 32 MB autograd context overflowed ("Not enough memory in context"). With the
# context now sized from the actual tensors, these should run and match prcomp.
#
# Usage:
#   Rscript seurat_pca_large.R
#   Rscript seurat_pca_large.R 6000 8000    # custom max genes x cells
#
# Requires (Suggests): Seurat, SeuratObject, Matrix
# ============================================================================
