perf: small wins — static bytes and inline hints - #108
Merged
Conversation
serialize_sub_response now takes &'static [u8] for the event kind, using Bytes::from_static() instead of Bytes::copy_from_slice(). eliminates one heap allocation per subscribe/unsubscribe response.
annotates Frame::serialize(), write_i64(), and parse_frame() for cross-crate inlining. these are called on every request and sit at the protocol-server crate boundary where the compiler won't inline without the hint (even with LTO, #[inline] is the correct signal for functions this hot).
