I did spend quite a bit of time on your site, linked sites, and webarchive. The files on your site did not work out of the box for me.

Five years is not that long for a PhD in the US.
I took eight years but I also got married, worked full time, and started a company before I finished. By the time I graduated, the CS department had started taking a much firmer stance on timelines, with a desire for most students to graduate within six years or sooner.

I believe that is a torus, and not at all an unusual implementation choice for the Game of Life.
