# Phase 1 Quick Start - Metadata-First Loading
|
|
|
|
## 🚀 Quick Summary
|
|
|
|
Phase 1 optimization has been **fully implemented**. The application now loads metadata first (< 1 second) instead of loading all file contents at startup (15-25 seconds).
|
|
|
|
**Expected Improvement**: 75% faster startup time
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## ✅ What Was Implemented
|
|
|
|
### Server-Side
|
|
- ✅ Fast metadata loader (`server/vault-metadata-loader.mjs`)
|
|
- ✅ Performance configuration (`server/performance-config.mjs`)
|
|
- ✅ New `/api/vault/metadata` endpoint
|
|
- ✅ Metadata caching with 5-minute TTL
|
|
- ✅ Cache invalidation on file changes
|
|
- ✅ Disabled enrichment during startup
|
|
|
|
### Client-Side
|
|
- ✅ `initializeVault()` method in VaultService
|
|
- ✅ `getNotesCount()` method for logging
|
|
- ✅ Updated AppComponent to use metadata-first loading
|
|
- ✅ New logging events for vault initialization
|
|
|
|
### Testing & Documentation
|
|
- ✅ Performance test script (`scripts/test-performance.mjs`)
|
|
- ✅ Complete implementation guide
|
|
- ✅ Troubleshooting documentation
|
|

|
## 🧪 Testing
|
|
|
|
### 1. Run Performance Test
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
node scripts/test-performance.mjs
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You should see:
|
|
- Metadata endpoint: < 1 second
|
|
- Metadata payload: < 1 MB
|
|
- 75%+ improvement over full vault endpoint
|
|
|
|
### 2. Manual Testing
|
|
|
|
1. Start the app: `npm run dev`
|
|
2. Open DevTools → Network tab
|
|
3. Refresh the page
|
|
4. Verify `/api/vault/metadata` is called first (small payload)
|
|
5. Verify app is interactive within 2-3 seconds
|
|
6. Click on a note and verify it loads smoothly
|
|
|
|
### 3. Lighthouse Test
|
|
|
|
1. Open DevTools → Lighthouse
|
|
2. Run Performance audit
|
|
3. Check:
|
|
- LCP < 1.5s ✅
|
|
- TTI < 3s ✅
|
|
- FCP < 1s ✅
|
|

## 🔧 How It Works
|
|
|
|
### Old Flow (SLOW)
|
|
```
|
|
Browser
|
|
↓
|
|
/api/vault (load ALL files with content)
|
|
↓
|
|
Server: enrichFrontmatter() for EACH file ← SLOW
|
|
↓
|
|
Return 5-10MB JSON
|
|
↓
|
|
Client: Parse & Render (10-15s)
|
|
↓
|
|
User can interact (20-30s after start)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### New Flow (FAST)
|
|
```
|
|
Browser
|
|
↓
|
|
/api/vault/metadata (load ONLY metadata)
|
|
↓
|
|
Server: NO enrichment ← FAST
|
|
↓
|
|
Return 0.5-1MB JSON
|
|
↓
|
|
Client: Parse & Render (1-2s)
|
|
↓
|
|
User can interact (2-4s after start) ✅
|
|
↓
|
|
User clicks note
|
|
↓
|
|
/api/files?path=... (load content on-demand)
|
|
↓
|
|
Display note (< 500ms)
|
|
```
|

|
### 1. Metadata-First Loading
|
|
- Load only essential metadata at startup
|
|
- Full content loaded on-demand when user selects a note
|

|
### 2. Smart Caching
|
|
- 5-minute TTL for metadata cache
|
|
- Automatic invalidation on file changes

|
- No breaking changes to existing code
|
|
- Gradual rollout possible
|
|
|
|
### 4. Performance Monitoring

|
## 🚨 Troubleshooting
|
|
|
|
### App doesn't start faster
|
|
1. Check Network tab - is `/api/vault/metadata` being called?
|
|
2. Verify enrichment was disabled in `loadVaultNotes()`
|
|
3. Check server logs for errors
|
|
4. Run `node scripts/test-performance.mjs` to verify endpoint
|
|
|
|
### Notes don't load when clicked
|
|
1. Check browser console for errors
|
|
2. Verify `/api/files` endpoint is working
|
|
3. Check that enrichment still happens on-demand
|
|
|
|
### Memory usage still high
|
|
1. Verify content is not loaded for all notes
|
|
2. Check browser DevTools Memory tab
|
|
3. Verify lazy loading is working
|
