The live collector's efficiency bar was incorrectly showing 0% success rate when using filtered modes like --mode exception where no thread had an active exception. This happened because samples were only counted as successful when frames were actually processed, conflating "profiler health" with "filter hit rate". Samples are now always counted as successful when the profiler can read from the target process, regardless of whether any frames matched the current filter. This ensures the efficiency bar accurately reflects profiler connectivity rather than filter selectivity. The invariant total_samples == successful_samples + failed_samples is now properly maintained.
