💡 What: Replaced $O(N \times M)$ nested loops with $O(N)$ hash map lookups when matching solutions to exercises in MaterialExtractor and RAGIndexer.
🎯 Why: The original nested loop iterated through all solutions for each exercise, causing an $O(N \times M)$ performance bottleneck. A hash map allows for $O(1)$ lookups, bringing the total time to $O(N + M)$.
📊 Impact: Expected to significantly reduce processing time for materials with many exercises and solutions. In a synthetic test with 1000 items, time dropped from ~0.08s to ~0.001s.
🔬 Measurement: Verified via custom performance benchmark script. The optimization was successfully tested and no regressions were introduced. Format and lint checks have been applied.

Pull request overview

This PR optimizes solution-to-exercise matching by replacing per-exercise linear scans over solutions (nested loops) with precomputed dictionaries for near O(1) lookups, reducing total matching time to O(N+M) in the extraction/indexing pipeline.

Changes:

  • Optimized MaterialExtractor.get_all_exercises by precomputing solutions_by_label (preserving first-match semantics for duplicates).
  • Optimized RAGIndexer.index_materials solution matching similarly, alongside substantial formatting/quoting normalization.
  • Added a small performance benchmark script and recorded the optimization as a “Bolt” learning.

File Description
test_perf.py Adds a benchmark comparing nested-loop matching vs dict lookup matching.
evolutia/rag/rag_indexer.py Uses a solutions-by-label dict to avoid O(N*M) matching during indexing; also reformats and normalizes quoting.
evolutia/material_extractor.py Uses a solutions-by-label dict to avoid O(N*M) matching when assembling exercises.
.jules/bolt.md Documents the O(N*M)→O(N) lookup optimization learning/action.
