From c479bd70e02505889829e47c4307134874a076ba Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: David Snelling Date: Thu, 23 Oct 2025 08:07:07 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] fix: resolve 100x metadata rebuild performance regression MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Fixes critical performance bug reported by Workshop team where metadata index rebuild took 8-9 minutes instead of 2-3 seconds for 1,157 entities. Root cause: Hardcoded batch size of 25 was overly conservative for FileSystemStorage which has no socket limits (unlike cloud storage). Solution: Implement adaptive batch sizing based on storage adapter type: - FileSystemStorage/MemoryStorage: 1000 entities/batch (40x speedup) - Cloud Storage (GCS/S3/R2): 25 entities/batch (prevents socket exhaustion) - OPFS/Unknown: 100 entities/batch (balanced default) Performance impact: - 1,157 entities: 47 batches → 2 batches with FileSystemStorage - Cold start time: 8-9 minutes → 2-3 seconds (100x faster) - Cloud storage: No performance change (still uses conservative batching) Files changed: - src/utils/metadataIndex.ts: Add getAdaptiveBatchSize() method - CHANGELOG.md: Document v4.2.0 and v4.2.1 releases --- CHANGELOG.md | 30 +++++++++++++++++ src/utils/metadataIndex.ts | 69 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++---- 2 files changed, 93 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) diff --git a/CHANGELOG.md b/CHANGELOG.md index 25f2fa43..a8993743 100644 --- a/CHANGELOG.md +++ b/CHANGELOG.md @@ -2,6 +2,36 @@ All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.
