## Deferred to v1.1+
| Crash recovery (T042) | Overlay generation files on disk, startup recovery. Current behavior: empty overlay on restart, `st update` to resync. |
| Background segment merge (T064) | Automatic compaction in background thread. `Index::compact()` handles the manual case. |
| Criterion benchmark suite (T061-T063) | External harness + presets are the canonical method for now. |
| Persistent/CoW overlay map | Replace `gram_index: HashMap` clone in `build_incremental_delta` with `im::HashMap` or `HashMap<u64, Arc<Vec<u32>>>`. Eliminates O(overlay) clone cost per `commit_batch` and the O(posting entries) sorted-order scan. Address together with the per-doc `.cloned()` carry-forward cost. |
| Windows Phase 2 security | `FILE_FLAG_OPEN_REPARSE_POINT` via `windows-sys` for native O_NOFOLLOW, ACL enforcement. Phase 1 (functional, `verify_fd_matches_stat` via volume+file_index) is complete. |
| FM-index | 10x slower construction, valid alternative indexing strategy. |
| Content-defined chunking | Block-level positional data for sub-file granularity. |
| Dual dictionary | Case-sensitive + case-insensitive (~2x dictionary size). |
| Overlapping trigrams | ~3.5x index size for non-aligned substring coverage. |
| Rate limiting on commit_batch | Accepted risk AR-002. |
