 ## 2025-05-18 - Memory vs Code Reality
 Learning: The project memory stated `AudioSegmentProcessor` uses zero-allocation `updateStats`, but the code actually allocated new objects every frame.
 Action: Always verify performance claims in memory against the actual code before assuming they are implemented.
+## 2024-05-23 - Array index optimization in hot visualization loop
+Learning: In high-frequency data subsampling loops running frequently (like `AudioEngine.getVisualizationData`), pre-calculating array offsets by sequential pointer addition (e.g. `idx += 2`) and hoisting out Math.floor boundary calculations can result in substantial (>30%) performance improvements by avoiding redundant float-to-int operations and bound calculations.
+Action: Next time processing inner loops in canvas visualization or audio sampling logic, hoist bounds outside and rely on simple loop accumulators for index tracing.
