🎯 Performance Issue Type
📊 Current Performance Metrics
Describe the performance issue:
The sorting visualization speed can only be adjusted when the visualization is stopped. Changing the speed while it is running has no effect, reducing interactivity and flexibility.
Measurements (if available):
- Animation FPS: [e.g., 30 FPS]
- Time to apply speed change: Only after stopping visualization
- Array size tested: [e.g., 50, 100, 500 elements]
Testing Environment:
- Device: [e.g., MacBook Pro M1, iPhone 12, Samsung Galaxy S21]
- Browser: [e.g., Chrome 118, Safari 17, Firefox 119]
- Network: [e.g., WiFi, 4G]
🔍 Root Cause Analysis
What's causing the performance issue?
Profiling Data:
- Observe that speed state is read only at animation start, not dynamically.
💡 Proposed Optimization
Optimization Strategy:
Specific Solutions:
- Bind the speed control slider dynamically to the animation loop.
- Use
requestAnimationFrame or similar for smooth speed updates.
- Apply
useRef or state hooks to manage real-time speed changes during sorting.
Expected Performance Improvement:
- Speed control responsiveness: Instant updates while sorting.
- User experience: Smooth, interactive control of sorting speed.
- Animation FPS: Maintain 60 FPS even when speed changes.
🛠️ Implementation Plan
Technical Approach:
- Tools needed: React hooks (
useState, useRef), requestAnimationFrame
- Files to modify: Sorting visualization component(s)
- Dependencies: None new
- Testing strategy: Verify speed changes reflect instantly on ongoing animations
