Added sync.Pools for distribution maps (endpointReplicaMapPool, tenantSeriesMapPool) - Added helper functions for map clearing with size guards - Modified distributeTimeseriesToReplicas to use pools - Added cleanup in fanoutForward **Optimization 2: sendLocalWrite Improvements (255GB, 4.57%)** Part A: Pool tenantSeriesMapping (10.30GB) - Added tenantTimeseriesMappingPool sync.Pool - Modified sendLocalWrite to get/return map from pool Part B: Optimize loop and pre-allocate (244.65GB) - Changed loop iteration from value to index (avoids copying TimeSeries structs) - Pre-allocate slices with capacity hints (single-tenant and multi-tenant cases) - Lazy allocation for multi-tenant scenarios **Memory Safety:** - Size guards prevent pool ballooning (max 100 entries) - Maps cleared before reuse (no data leakage) - Error path cleanup prevents pool leaks **Testing:** - Added TestDistributionMapPooling - Added TestClearMapFunctions -
