⚡ Bolt: [performance improvement] Cache compiled regex filters in buildIgnoreFilter#85
Conversation
Optimized `buildIgnoreFilter` in `cli/shared-ignore.mjs` to cache compiled regex filters using a `Map`. This prevents redundant regex compilation overhead during recursive directory scans. Added a critical learning to `.jules/bolt.md`. Co-authored-by: raccioly <63126795+raccioly@users.noreply.github.com>

💡 What
Implemented an internal
filterCache(Map) withinbuildIgnoreFilterincli/shared-ignore.mjs. This cache uses the JSON-stringifiedpatternsarray as the cache key to store and reuse the compiled regex filter functions. Added a corresponding entry to the Bolt journal (.jules/bolt.md).🎯 Why
During recursive directory scans, functions like
shouldIgnorecontinually re-evaluate the same global and validator-specific configuration patterns. Previously, this caused the regexes to be re-compiled for every check, leading to redundant computation and performance bottlenecks in large codebases.📊 Impact
Reduces regex compilation overhead to O(1) per unique pattern array, significantly speeding up recursive file traversals and the overall execution time of the CLI, especially in large repositories with extensive ignore configurations.
