 Use `privacy.captureRaw: true` only in controlled local development.
 
+The default policy fetch timeout is 10 seconds, including reading the response
+body. The startup retry budget defaults to 15 seconds. Large approved policies
+are loaded in full; a timeout does not permit uploading unredacted values.
+
+Trace value materialization uses a restartable background worker in both live and
+staging modes. Worker messages are processed in bounded batches without dropping
+events. When worker execution is unavailable, asynchronous capture traversal
+yields to the event loop. Observation snapshots still have a synchronous cost,
+so measure overhead against your own payloads and traffic before production use.
+
+Run `npm run test:latency` with Docker running to test real MongoDB queries and
+HTTP traffic with recording disabled, raw capture, approved policies, worker
+fallback, and a worker-side policy failure. The test checks unrelated HTTP
+responsiveness, captured values and mutations, privacy, and request manifests.
