 Release history for the DaVinci Resolve MCP Server. The latest release is summarized in the root README; older entries live here to keep the README focused.
 
+## What's New in v2.33.8
+
+Bridge-call performance instrumentation.
+
+- **Added** `src/utils/bridge_metrics.py` — a counting proxy that wraps a Resolve
+  handle and tallies attribute accesses and method calls (each a COM/socket
+  round-trip), so the real bridge cost of an operation is measured rather than
+  guessed.
+- **Added** `scripts/measure_bridge_cost.py` — runs a representative media-pool
+  traversal through the proxy and reports round-trips per clip. A minimal
+  name+type walk measured ~6.7 round-trips per clip, confirming round-trips scale
+  linearly with traversal size. A property cache remains gated on profiling
+  *repeated*-read patterns in real workflows (don't cache blind).
+
 ## What's New in v2.33.7
 
 Read/write symmetry audit and a gap it surfaced.

+"""Instrumentation for counting DaVinci Resolve bridge round-trips.
+
+Every attribute access and method call on a Resolve object is a COM/socket
+round-trip — the dominant cost of most operations. Before optimizing (or adding
+a cache), you have to *measure* where the round-trips concentrate. This module
+provides an opt-in counting proxy that wraps a Resolve handle and tallies
+attribute accesses and method calls, so a hot path's real bridge cost is
+visible instead of guessed.
+
+This is the measurement half of the bridge-perf work. A property cache is only
+worth building once measurement shows a clear, repeated-read hot spot — don't
+cache blind.
+
+Example:
+
+    counts = {}
+    rp = CountingProxy(resolve, counts)
+    rp.GetProjectManager().GetCurrentProject().GetName()
+    print(counts)  # {'attr_access': N, 'calls': M}
