## 7. Optimization Opportunities (For Future Implementation)

### 7.1 Code Optimizations

**Recommended Optimizations**:

**1. Bitboards for Position Checking**
```javascript
// Instead of array iteration
// Use bitboards for O(1) position checks
class BitboardOptimizer {
  // Fast position checking
  // ~10x faster than array iteration
}
```

**2. Move Caching**
```javascript
// Cache valid moves for current position
// Invalidate on position change
class MoveCache {
  // Reduce redundant calculations
  // ~5x speedup for AI
}
```

**3. Lazy Loading**
```javascript
// Load AI engine only when needed
// Reduce initial bundle size
const AIEngine = () => import('./ai/AIEngine.js');
```

**4. Virtual Scrolling for History**
```javascript
// Only render visible moves
// Handle 1000+ moves smoothly
class VirtualMoveHistory {
  // Constant memory usage
}
```

**Status**: ⚠️ **RECOMMENDATIONS ONLY - No implementation to optimize**

---

### 7.2 Rendering Optimizations

**Recommended**:

**1. RequestAnimationFrame for Animations**
```javascript
// Smooth 60 FPS animations
function animatePieceMove(piece, from, to) {
  requestAnimationFrame(updatePosition);
}
```

**2. CSS Transforms for Movement**
```css
/* Hardware-accelerated animations */
.piece {
  transform: translate3d(x, y, 0);
  will-change: transform;
}
```

**3. Debounced Window Resize**
```javascript
// Prevent excessive reflows
const handleResize = debounce(() => {
  resizeBoard();
}, 100);
```

**Status**: ⚠️ **RECOMMENDATIONS ONLY**

---

### 7.3 Memory Optimizations

**Recommended**:

**1. Object Pooling for Positions**
```javascript
// Reuse position objects
// Reduce GC pressure
class PositionPool {
  // ~50% memory reduction
}
```

**2. Efficient Move History**
```javascript
// Store deltas instead of full positions
class CompressedHistory {
  // ~80% memory reduction
}
```

**Status**: ⚠️ **RECOMMENDATIONS ONLY**

---

## 9. Critical Performance Issues (None Found - No Code)

### No Issues Detected

**Reason**: No implementation exists to analyze for performance issues.

**Potential Issues to Watch For** (during implementation):

**1. N+1 Query Problem in Move Validation**
```javascript
// ❌ BAD: Checking each square individually
for (let square of allSquares) {
  if (isPieceAt(square)) { /* ... */ }
}

// ✅ GOOD: Single position lookup
const positions = getPiecePositions(); // O(1) lookup
```

**2. Unnecessary Re-renders**
```javascript
// ❌ BAD: Re-rendering entire board on every move
function updateBoard() {
  renderEntireBoard(); // Slow
}

// ✅ GOOD: Update only changed squares
function updateBoard(move) {
  updateSquare(move.from);
  updateSquare(move.to);
}
```

**3. Memory Leaks in Event Listeners**
```javascript
// ❌ BAD: Not removing listeners
squares.forEach(sq => {
  sq.addEventListener('click', handler);
});

// ✅ GOOD: Clean up on destroy
class BoardView {
  destroy() {
    this.squares.forEach(sq => {
      sq.removeEventListener('click', this.handler);
    });
  }
}
```
