This can be reduced to 12 by building the still-lifes simultaneously. This could previously be done from 11 gliders (my web page currently says 12, but most blocker-based oscillators were improved by 1 by Bob Shemyakin's 5-glider blocker synthesis from no later than 2015):

I can't find the object in jslife, and it's certainly not in Dean Hickerson's oscillator collection --

Anybody have any prior art for this?

I'm still waiting patiently for the first p7 to show up in the C1 census. (Or another new prime period -- I'm not too picky.)

Can anyone find a way to improve its cleanup?

Also for a name, maybe something to do with "slowing lump of muck" (as part of it looks like one of the stages for lumps of muck)?

Nice. Actually, it's only 14 gliders, and cleanup can be done with 3 gliders instead of 4, reducing it to 13. (It might also be possible with 2 if you look hard enough):

If you advance that a bit, the predecessor becomes even simpler. Here it is from 10 gliders. (9 might be possible; many positions of the cleanup glider leave the beehive+blinker combination, and some leave 1-2 other objects. It's possible one might leave nothing, of you try an exhaustive search). As a bonus, all gliders approach from only 2 directions, which might make constructing a 4-snark glider-loop easier.

I meant that one could use gencols or similar to find a small glider-triggered constellation that produces a block at the edge of its reaction envelope.
