See the .copilot-journal.md file for details.

Connector test file was removed from the branch but can be manually added locally. We should figure out an approach to generate a test file of similar complexity.

✅ Implemented Map pooling and optimized operations:
- getPooledMap() with 50-map pool reduces allocations
- createOptimizedShallowCopy() replaces new Map(entries())
- createOptimizedFilteredMap() replaces MapUtils.filter()
- Strategic optimization of 4 critical Map bottlenecks

📊 Performance Results:
- Before: 64.2s (Phase 5 baseline)
- After: ~58s (average of 57.98s-59.98s)
- Improvement: 14.1s faster (19.6% total improvement from 72.1s baseline)
- Accuracy: 121 diagnostics, hash 398cb8c0 preserved ✅

🚀 Total cumulative improvement: 72.1s → 58s = 14.1s (19.6% faster)
📈 Journal updated with Phase 6 results and technical details
✅ Implemented advanced scope caching strategy:
- scopeResolutionCache with recursive resolution caching
- Smart cache management with size limits (500 entries)
- Cache persistence across inspections vs full clearing

📊 Performance Results:
- Baseline (Phase 6): ~60s
- Phase 7: ~60-66s (neutral impact)
- Cache benefits limited by current validation patterns

🔍 Key Insights:
- Scope resolution caching has minimal benefit for single-file validation
- Core algorithm bottleneck may be deeper than scope resolution
- Cache overhead outweighs benefits for current workload patterns

💡 Next: Shift to different optimization strategies for Phase 8
- Implemented canonical identifier storage instead of 4x variants
- Added smart lookup with on-demand variant checking
- Achieved ~75% scope map size reduction and massive performance gains
- Performance: Synthetic docs now validate in ~18ms vs ~60s baseline
- Trade-off: 46 test failures due to scope enumeration API changes
- Proof-of-concept demonstrates huge potential, needs hybrid approach
- Restored Phase 7 baseline with proven compatibility
- Added conservative optimizations maintaining exact original behavior
- Cached scope item creation (4×N → N factory calls)
- Added batch processing for filtered key-value pairs
- Maintained original getAllowedIdentifiersOptions parameter
- All 643 tests pass - perfect API compatibility preserved
- Established stable foundation for future advanced optimizations
- Implemented intelligent threshold-based optimization (100 item threshold)
- Small scopes (≤100): Full compatibility mode with all variants
- Large scopes (>100): Selective optimization for recursive identifiers
- Reduced 4× multiplication to ~2× for recursive items in large scopes only
- Enhanced adaptive lookup handles mixed storage modes seamlessly
- All 643 tests pass - perfect compatibility maintained
- Smart balance: compatibility where needed, performance where valuable
