defmodule Raxol.UI.Rendering.ComponentCache do
@moduledoc """
High-performance cache for component rendering results.
This module caches rendered component output to avoid redundant rendering
of unchanged components. It tracks component props, state, and theme to
invalidate cache when inputs change.
## Features
- Caches rendered cell output for components
- Smart invalidation based on props/state changes
- Integrates with ETS cache manager for performance
- Telemetry instrumentation for monitoring
- Supports partial rendering and dirty region tracking
## Performance Impact
Expected improvements:
- 50-70% reduction in rendering overhead for static components
- Sub-millisecond access for cached renders
- Reduced CPU usage during UI updates
