Replaces heap allocation with a fixed-size stack buffer in `drawstatusbar` to reduce overhead in the critical rendering path. Since `stext` is globally fixed at 1024 bytes, a matching stack buffer eliminates unnecessary `malloc`/`free` calls. Optimization details: - Replaced `malloc(len)` with `char text[1024]`. - Added length check to prevent potential overflow if `stext` definition changes. - Switched to using `p` pointer for string traversal to handle array decay correctly.

⚡ Bolt: optimize memory allocation in drawstatusbar
💡 What:
Replaced dynamic memory allocation (
malloc/free) in thedrawstatusbarfunction with a fixed-size stack buffer (char text[1024]).🎯 Why:
The
drawstatusbarfunction is called frequently (on every status update or bar redraw). Allocating and freeing memory on the heap for a temporary string buffer adds unnecessary overhead and fragmentation. Since the source stringstextis globally defined with a fixed size of 1024 bytes, a stack buffer is safe and much faster.📊 Impact:
🔬 Measurement:
Verified by compiling with
make clean && makeand inspecting the code to ensure the stack buffer is correctly utilized and safely bounded. No visual regressions expected as logic remains identical.PR created automatically by Jules for task 13344325150923387779 started by @paperbenni
