-## 🚀 Performance Optimization Strategies
-
-### Implemented Optimizations
-
-1. **Database**:
-   - ✅ WAL mode for concurrent reads/writes
-   - ✅ Foreign key constraints for integrity
-   - ✅ Composite indexes on (type, confidence, created_at)
-   - ✅ JSON extraction indexes for domain filtering
-
-2. **Queries**:
-   - ✅ Prepared statements for all operations
-   - ✅ Singleton database connection
-   - ✅ Materialized views for common aggregations
-
-3. **Configuration**:
-   - ✅ Singleton pattern with caching
-   - ✅ Environment variable overrides
-
-4. **Embeddings**:
-   - ✅ Binary BLOB storage (not base64)
-   - ✅ Float32Array for memory efficiency
-   - ✅ Normalized vectors for faster similarity
-
-### Potential Future Optimizations
-
-1. **Caching**:
-   - In-memory LRU cache for frequently accessed memories
-   - Embedding cache with TTL (currently in config, not implemented)
-
-2. **Indexing**:
-   - Vector index (FAISS, Annoy) for approximate nearest neighbor
-   - Would reduce retrieval from O(n) to O(log n)
-
-3. **Sharding**:
-   - Multi-database setup for > 1M memories
-   - Domain-based sharding strategy
-
-4. **Async Operations**:
-   - Background embedding generation
-   - Async consolidation without blocking main thread

-## 📉 Performance Bottlenecks
-
-### Identified Bottlenecks
-
-1. **Retrieval without Filtering** (24ms for 2,431 memories)
-   - **Cause**: Full table scan with JOIN on all memories
-   - **Impact**: Acceptable for < 10K memories, problematic beyond
-   - **Mitigation**: Always use domain/agent filters when possible
-   - **Future Fix**: Vector index (FAISS) for approximate search
-
-2. **Embedding Deserialization** (included in retrieval time)
-   - **Cause**: BLOB → Float32Array conversion
-   - **Impact**: Minor (< 1ms per batch)
-   - **Mitigation**: Already optimized with Buffer.from()
-
-3. **Outlier Insert Times** (max 67ms vs avg 1.2ms)
-   - **Cause**: Disk fsync during WAL checkpoints
-   - **Impact**: Rare (< 1% of operations)
-   - **Mitigation**: WAL mode already reduces frequency
-
-### Not Bottlenecks
-
-- ✅ **Cosine Similarity**: Ultra-fast (0.005ms), not a concern
-- ✅ **Configuration Loading**: Cached after first load
-- ✅ **Database Connection**: Singleton, negligible overhead
-- ✅ **Usage Tracking**: Fast enough (0.052ms) for real-time

-## 🎯 Real-World Performance Estimates
-
-### Task Execution with ReasoningBank
-
-Assuming a typical agent task with ReasoningBank enabled:
-
-**Pre-Task (Memory Retrieval)**:
-- Retrieve top-3 memories: **~6ms** (with domain filter)
-- Format and inject into prompt: **< 1ms**
-- **Total overhead**: **< 10ms** (negligible compared to LLM latency)
-
-**Post-Task (Learning)**:
-- Judge trajectory (LLM call): **2-5 seconds**
-- Distill 1-3 memories (LLM call): **3-8 seconds**
-- Store memories + embeddings: **3-5ms**
-- **Total overhead**: **Dominated by LLM calls, not database**
-
-**Consolidation (Every 20 Memories)**:
-- Fetch all active memories: **8ms**
-- Compute similarity matrix: **~100ms** (for 100 memories)
-- Detect contradictions: **1-3 seconds** (LLM-based)
-- Prune/merge: **10-20ms**
-- **Total overhead**: **~3-5 seconds every 20 tasks** (amortized < 250ms/task)
-
-### Throughput Estimates
-
-**With ReasoningBank Enabled**:
-- **Tasks/second** (no LLM): ~16 (60ms per task for DB operations)
-- **Tasks/second** (with LLM): ~0.1-0.3 (dominated by 5-10s LLM latency)
-- **Conclusion**: Database is not the bottleneck ✅
-
-**Scalability**:
-- **Single agent**: 500-1,000 tasks/day comfortably
-- **10 concurrent agents**: 5,000-10,000 tasks/day
-- **Database can handle**: > 100,000 tasks/day before optimization needed
