💡 What: Replaced the double Map lookup (.has() then .get()) in ParakeetModel.getFeatures with a single .get() call and an !== undefined check.
🎯 Why: To avoid the redundant traversal overhead of the Map's underlying data structure when checking for and retrieving cached feature entries.
📊 Measured Improvement:

  • Baseline (.has + .get): ~119.5 ms / 1,000,000 lookups
  • Optimized (.get only): ~109.6 ms / 1,000,000 lookups
  • This yields roughly a ~8% micro-benchmark improvement on Map cache hits.

Summary by Sourcery

Optimize Parakeet mel feature cache lookups by avoiding redundant Map operations and document the preferred Map caching pattern.

Enhancements:

  • Simplify mel feature cache retrieval to use a single Map lookup with an undefined check for cache hits.
  • Document the Map cache lookup optimization pattern and guidance in the project bolt notes.

Remove redundant `.has()` check before `.get()` in `getFeatures` cache lookup, replacing it with a single `.get()` call and an `undefined` check to save a microsecond per lookup.

Hey - I've left some high level feedback:

  • The new cached !== undefined check assumes undefined can never be a valid cached value; if that invariant isn’t enforced elsewhere, consider guarding with a sentinel type (e.g., storing objects only) or adding an assertion to make the assumption explicit.
  • The .jules/bolt.md guidance to "always" prefer .get() + undefined checks for Map lookups is V8- and context-specific; you may want to soften this to recommend it only for proven hotspots to avoid premature micro-optimizations in non-critical paths.

## Overall Comments
- The new `cached !== undefined` check assumes `undefined` can never be a valid cached value; if that invariant isn’t enforced elsewhere, consider guarding with a sentinel type (e.g., storing objects only) or adding an assertion to make the assumption explicit.
- The `.jules/bolt.md` guidance to "always" prefer `.get()` + `undefined` checks for `Map` lookups is V8- and context-specific; you may want to soften this to recommend it only for proven hotspots to avoid premature micro-optimizations in non-critical paths.
