fix(f1): skip the scroll rebuild when the data has not changed - #280
Conversation
update() called _prepare_scroll_content() on every refresh, which re-rendered all twelve scroll modes unconditionally. On devpi that measured 12.46s, one of the images being 11250x64px with 105 cards. Outside a race weekend the refreshed data comes back byte-identical, so almost all of that work rebuilt images that were already correct. Plugin updates do run on a worker thread, but the render loop shares the interpreter with it, and the Vegas marquee stalled visibly -- single frames of 486ms, 583ms and 418ms against a p99 of 22ms. The build now runs only when a sha256 of everything it draws from has moved: standings, battle pairs, recent races, upcoming, qualifying, practice, sprint, calendar, favourites, the renderer's show_ toggles and the recent-races config. _display_scroll_mode passes force=True, since it fires exactly when a mode is unprepared and the signature could otherwise match while the images are missing. The signature is the risk here -- an input left out means the panel keeps showing stale content, which is worse than the cost it saves. The test mutates all eighteen inputs in turn and requires each to move the hash, and exercises the shipped guard rather than a copy by tripping an exception from the first renderer call past it. Mutation-checked: dropping a field from the signature, dropping the renderer flags, ignoring force, and disabling the skip are all caught. Harness clean; the other two f1 tests pass.

Invalidate the signature when scroll state is replaced.
on_config_change() creates a new ScrollDisplayManager but retains _scroll_content_sig. If a configuration update does not change the subset used by _scroll_content_signature(), this guard skips preparation for the new manager. get_vegas_content() then has no prepared items until a normal display mode forces a rebuild.
Clear _scroll_content_sig after replacing the scroll renderer and scroll manager. Add a regression case for this transition.
Proposed fix
self._scroll_manager = ScrollDisplayManager(
self.display_manager, render_config, self.logger,
global_config=getattr(self, 'global_config', {}) or {})
self.enable_scrolling = self._scroll_manager is not None
+ self._scroll_content_sig = None🤖 Prompt for AI Agents

The problem
On a live rig the Vegas marquee stalled for up to half a second at a time — single frames of 486 ms, 583 ms and 418 ms against a p99 of 22 ms. Over an hour, 2.8% of five-second windows contained a frame over 100 ms, with a worst of 1975 ms.
The log line at the centre of it:
update()ends with_prepare_scroll_content(), which re-renders all twelve scroll modes unconditionally on every refresh. In that one window it built nine images, the largest 11250×64 px with 105 cards.Outside a race weekend the refreshed data comes back byte-identical to the previous one, so nearly all of that work rebuilds images that were already correct. Plugin updates do run on a worker thread, but the render loop shares the interpreter with it, and the marquee stalls.
The fix
The build runs only when a sha256 of everything it draws from has moved: standings, both battle pairs, recent races, upcoming, qualifying, practice, sprint, calendar, favourites, the renderer's
show_toggles, and the recent-races config._display_scroll_modepassesforce=True, because it fires exactly when a mode is unprepared — the signature can legitimately match while the images themselves are missing, and without the escape hatch that mode would never render.On the risk
The signature is the whole risk here. A field left out means the panel keeps showing stale content, which is a worse failure than the cost it saves. So the test mutates all eighteen inputs in turn and requires each one to move the hash — if someone adds a rendered field and forgets the signature, that test fails.
It also exercises the shipped guard rather than a copy of it: the stand-in's renderer raises from the first call past the guard, so "did the body run" is observed from the real method instead of reimplemented in the test.
Mutation-checked — dropping a field from the signature, dropping the renderer flags, ignoring
force, and disabling the skip are all caught.Verification
