 ## 2025-02-15 - Replace Array.from(map.values()).map with a for...of loop
 **Learning:** Using `Array.from(map.values()).map(...)` creates an unnecessary intermediate array which wastes memory allocation and garbage collection time, particularly for frequently re-rendered components handling large collections.
 **Action:** Use a `for...of` loop over `map.values()` to iterate and push mapped elements directly into the final array for O(1) memory and avoiding intermediate array allocations.
+## 2024-07-03 - Hoisting Static React Math Structures
+**Learning:** React render functions can contain mathematically generated static structures, such as decorative lists created with `Array.from().map()`. While small, leaving these inline allocates new arrays and objects on every render cycle, increasing garbage collection pressure. This is a common performance pitfall for purely decorative UI elements.
+**Action:** When finding static structural elements generated by arrays, hoist them entirely out of the component as module-level constants to ensure React reuses the exact same reference, bypassing DOM diffing allocation overhead.
