⚡ Bolt: Optimize Helper.IsTheSame to be allocation-free #157
Conversation
Optimized `IsTheSame` method to use a zero-allocation character loop instead of creating multiple string copies via `Replace` and `Trim`. This reduces memory pressure significantly for file comparisons. Journal entry added to `.jules/bolt.md`.

⚡ Bolt: Performance Optimization
💡 What:
Replaced the
IsTheSamemethod implementation inv4/DynamicsCrm.DevKit.Shared/Helper.cs. The old implementation used a chain ofReplacecalls to remove whitespace, creating 4-8 intermediate string allocations per comparison. The new implementation iterates through the existing strings using pointers/indices, skipping whitespace and comparing characters in-place.🎯 Why:
This method is used frequently to check if generated code files have changed (e.g., in
TaskGeneratorandTaskWebResource). For large files, the previous approach generated significant garbage (O(N) allocations), increasing GC pressure and execution time. The new approach is O(1) in memory allocation (zero allocations) and O(N) in time.📊 Impact:
🔬 Measurement:
Since local benchmarks cannot be run, the improvement is theoretical but guaranteed by the removal of allocations in a hot path.
