+# Phase 4: Advanced Optimizations
+
+## Overview
+
+Implement advanced performance optimizations and modern web technologies to handle large-scale data, improve caching, enable real-time streaming, and provide offline capabilities.
+
+## Goals
+
+- Handle datasets with 1M+ rows efficiently
+- Enable offline data visualization with caching
+- Support real-time data streaming
+- Provide native app-like experience via PWA
+- Leverage WebAssembly for compute-intensive operations
+
+## Tasks
+

+
+**Files to modify/create**:

+
+### 3. Streaming Data Support (WebSocket)
+
+**Objective**: Support real-time data visualization with WebSocket connections
+
+- [ ] Create WebSocket client infrastructure

+  - [ ] Message protocol (subscribe, unsubscribe, data)
+  - [ ] Authentication handling
+
+- [ ] Implement streaming data components
+  - [ ] Real-time line chart with sliding window
+  - [ ] Live updating metrics/dashboards
+  - [ ] Data buffering and throttling
+

+  - [ ] Backpressure handling
+  - [ ] Data aggregation for high-frequency updates
+  - [ ] Pause/resume streaming
+
+- [ ] Create streaming hooks
+  - [ ] `useWebSocket(url, options)`
+  - [ ] `useStreamingData(config)`
