Subject: [PATCH] perf(ids): memoize normalize_id
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

normalize_id is a pure, deterministic str->str transform — up to six
casefold+NFKC iterations plus two regex passes (~1.3us each) — and every node
id in the pipeline flows through it via make_id, almost always on a repeating
handful of file stems and symbol names (a file's stem is normalized once per
node it owns; the same identifiers recur across files). lru_cache collapses
those repeats: ~13x on the repeated-input pattern (31.6ms -> 2.4ms per 24k
calls). The result depends only on the input string, so there is nothing to
invalidate; the cache is bounded so a pathological corpus cannot grow it
without limit. Output and the documented invariants (idempotent,
caseless-stable, word-only) are unchanged, verified against the pre-memo
implementation.
