**Status: 🟡 Warning**
13-

Vite's production build produces a single massive chunk:
15-
* `dist/assets/index.js` -> **1.83 MB raw** (558.90 KB gzipped)
12+
**Status: 🟢 Good (Optimized)**

17-
While Electron loads local files instantly, parsing a monolithic 1.8MB JavaScript file blocks the V8 main thread during the crucial startup phase.
14+
Vite's production build correctly implements code-splitting:
15+
* `dist/assets/index.js` -> Main chunk is efficient.
16+
* `dist/assets/openai-*.js` -> Code-split async chunk.

**Top Heavy Dependencies:**
20-
1. `openai` (~9.31 MB unpacked)
21-
2. `mathjs` (~9.00 MB unpacked)

3. `react-dom` (~6.98 MB unpacked)
23-
4. `react-force-graph-2d` (~1.65 MB unpacked)
24-
25-
**Concerns:**
26-
* No code-splitting or lazy loading is currently implemented. The `openai` and `mathjs` libraries are statically imported and loaded into memory on cold boot, even if the user never uses AI or math features in that session.
18+
**Heavy Dependencies Managed:**
19+
1. `openai` (~9.31 MB unpacked) - Lazily loaded! It is only fetched over the local filesystem exactly when the user invokes an `/ai` or `/ctx` command. This dramatically reduces the initial JS parsing block on the V8 main thread.
20+
2. `mathjs` (~9.00 MB unpacked) - Still statically imported. (Candidate for future lazy loading).

**Background Timers:**
36-
* **`useReminders.ts`** runs a `setInterval` every 10,000ms (10 seconds) that executes an expensive Regex parse across **every single note** in the user's workspace to check for due dates.
37-
* This timer fires relentlessly in the background, waking the CPU up 6 times a minute even when the window is hidden and the app is idle. This is a severe battery drain pattern.
29+
**Zero-Idle Reminders:**
30+
* `useReminders.ts` has been refactored. The inefficient 10-second polling loop has been removed.
31+
* The app calculates the exact millisecond the *next* earliest reminder is due and sets a single, targeted `setTimeout`. This achieves true zero-CPU idle time while waiting for reminders.

**Power Throttling:**
40-
* The app does not utilize Electron's `powerMonitor` API. When the laptop suspends or runs on battery saver mode, PaperCache makes no attempt to pause its background checks.
34+
* The app utilizes Electron's `powerMonitor` API. When the laptop suspends or runs on battery saver mode, PaperCache cleanly pauses its background timers via IPC (`power:suspend`). When it wakes, it recalculates (`power:resume`).

**Reactive `/var` Engine:**

* The global reactive variable and math calculation system evaluates AST trees synchronously. Without a debounce layer, typing rapidly in a massive document with many variables could trigger heavy synchronous calculations, stalling the render thread.

**Linting:**

## 📋 Recommendations

76-
### High Priority
77-
1. **Refactor `useReminders.ts`**: Replace the 10-second polling interval. Instead, calculate the exact milliseconds until the *next* earliest reminder, and set a single `setTimeout` to fire exactly at that moment.
78-
2. **Implement `powerMonitor`**: Listen for `suspend` and `resume` events from Electron's `powerMonitor` to cleanly pause and resume the reminder polling.
79-
8069
### Medium Priority
81-
3. **Lazy Load Heavy Modules**: Use `import()` to lazily load the `openai` SDK and `mathjs` engine. They should only be fetched and parsed the first time the user actually types `/ai` or an equation.
82-
4. **Debounce Math Calculations**: Add a 300ms debounce to the CodeMirror plugins that trigger the AST variable and math calculations to prevent UI stutter while typing.

71+
2. **Lazy Load `mathjs`**: Use `import()` to lazily load the `mathjs` engine similarly to how `openai` was handled.

8473
### Low Priority
85-
5. **Optimize `electron-builder`**: Add `"compression": "maximum"` to `build` config in `package.json`.
86-
6. **Resolve ESLint Warnings**: Clear out the explicit `any` types across the codebase to ensure robust type safety during future expansions.
