description: "Focus on speed, memory, and allocation patterns — best for hot-path code"
version: "1.0"

focus_areas:
  - id: performance
    weight: 10
    action: warn
    rules:
      - "Avoid unnecessary allocations in hot paths — reuse buffers, pre-allocate"
      - "Watch for O(n²) or worse complexity in loops"
      - "Use appropriate data structures for the access pattern"
      - "Avoid cloning large types when references suffice"
      - "Profile before optimizing — but flag obvious bottlenecks"

  - id: memory
    weight: 9
    action: warn
    rules:
      - "No memory leaks — ensure resources are freed (RAII, Drop, defer close)"
      - "Avoid holding large data structures longer than needed"
      - "Use streaming/chunking for large data instead of loading all into memory"
      - "Check for unintended copies of large buffers"

  - id: io_efficiency
    weight: 8
    action: warn
    rules:
      - "Avoid N+1 queries — batch database/API calls"
      - "Use async I/O for concurrent operations, not blocking calls"
      - "Minimize unnecessary network round-trips"
      - "Cache expensive computations when results don't change often"

  - id: concurrency
    weight: 7
    action: warn
    rules:
      - "Avoid data races in concurrent code (proper locking, atomic operations)"
      - "Watch for deadlocks (lock ordering, timeout on lock acquisition)"
      - "Prefer message passing over shared mutable state"
