+/**
+ * Temporal Preprocessing Manager
+ * 
+ * Implements preprocessing patterns from high-stakes, low-latency domains (driving, aviation)
+ * for browser temporal note-taking. The key insight: preprocess expensive operations during
+ * low-Hz periods (idle, reading, stable) and use preprocessed data during high-Hz periods
+ * (rapid interactions, fast state changes).
+ * 
+ * Research context (inspired by, not exact implementations):
+ * - arXiv:2406.12125 - Temporal dependency concepts (loosely related, not implementing core algorithm)
+ * - arXiv:2505.13326 - Adaptive batching concepts (inspired by, not exact method)
+ * - Human perception time scales (NN/g, PMC) - 0.1s threshold for direct manipulation
+ * 
+ * Pattern:
+ * - High-Hz (10-60Hz): Fast note capture, use preprocessed aggregations
+ * - Low-Hz (0.1-1Hz): Expensive preprocessing (multi-scale aggregation, coherence, pruning)
+ * 
+ * CACHE ARCHITECTURE NOTE:
+ * - This has its OWN in-memory cache (object), separate from VLLM cache and BatchOptimizer cache
+ * - Purpose: Cache aggregated temporal notes to avoid recomputation during high-activity periods
+ * - Why separate: Different data type (AggregatedTemporalNotes vs ValidationResult), different lifecycle
+ *   (instance-scoped vs process-scoped vs persistent), different invalidation strategy (activity-based vs TTL)
+ * - No coordination with other caches (by design - they serve different purposes with minimal data overlap)
+ * - See docs/CACHE_ARCHITECTURE_DEEP_DIVE.md for details
