+# Daily Performance Report - 2026-02-24
+
+## Summary
+Perf-agent executed. Identified a performance bottleneck in `dashboard/app.js` where the UI was re-rendering synchronously on every incoming WebSocket event. This could lead to UI freezes during high event volume. A fix was applied to debounce rendering and gate it behind visibility checks.
+
+## P0/P1 Findings
+- **High Priority**: `dashboard/app.js` `renderLocks()` called synchronously in `ws.onmessage`.
+  - **Impact**: Potential main-thread blocking and wasted CPU when tab is hidden.
+  - **Action**: Implemented `scheduleRender` using `requestAnimationFrame` and `!document.hidden`. Replaced direct calls with this debounced version.
+  - **Status**: Fixed.
+
+## Metrics
+- **Search Hits**: See `reports/performance/hits-2026-02-24.json` for full inventory of performance-sensitive patterns (`setInterval`, `Promise.all`, etc.).
+
+## Docs Audit
+- **Status**: Skipped. The `/content` directory was not found in the repository.
+
+## PRs / Issues
+- Applied fix directly to `dashboard/app.js`.

+## Goal
+Daily, measurable improvement of app responsiveness by finding and fixing background CPU/network work that degrades UX.
+
+## Scope
+- `src/` directory for performance patterns.
+- `dashboard/` for UI responsiveness.
+
+## Constraints
+- Never invent files or APIs.
+- Keep changes small and incremental.
+- Verify changes with tests.

+## Decision: Debounce renderLocks in dashboard/app.js
+**Rationale:** The `renderLocks` function is called synchronously on every WebSocket message. During high traffic or initial load, this can freeze the UI. Using `requestAnimationFrame` and checking `document.hidden` ensures we only render when necessary and efficient.
