I watched garbo run through some turns, and paid attention to the recent diagnostic message about familiar weight differences between KoL and Mafia. Upon encountering, I'd abort out and go look at modtraces and whatnot. I spotted two main causes of this coming up:
The first was an incorrect tracking of the familiar's experience. It seems Mafia currently does not always register the starting experience gained from the cook. This manifests in a 8-9lb difference (depending on whether the blue plate had a chance to be equipped) that shrinks as Mafia starts "levelling up" the familiar internally. However, there may be more to this that I don't fully get - in another scenario Mafia thought my God Lobster was 132lb while in fact it was 129lb (with a correct buff modtrace of +120lb). In all of these cases, hitting up the terrarium and having Mafia see the actual experience fixes things.
The second was occasional hiccups in Snow Suit tracking. I didn't do proper diagnostics on this, as in whether it failed to register on some combats or what, but every now and then it would slide out of sync by a pound for a few fights.
There may be more, but those are the two I have managed to identify.
