Every time code asked an event for its parent or thread root (threadReference, parentEventId), parseThreadReference walked its tags again and ran a 64-character hex regex over each e tag. The channel store asks that many times per event:

  • _trimReplyOverlay runs on every live event merged into the window and re-parsed every overlay event, twice.
  • _reconcilePageSummaries called cachedThreadReplyIds(root) once per row of a fetched page, and each call re-parsed every cached reply (twice per reply) to find that root's replies. A 200-row page did 200 full passes.

Now:

  • parseThreadReference keeps its result per tag list in an Expando. Event tags are never changed after an event is built (nothing in lib mutates a NostrEvent's tags), so the cached value always matches.
  • _reconcilePageSummaries indexes cached replies by root once, then reads each row's count from that map. cachedThreadReplyIds keeps its signature and result and shares the same code.

Validation

Full mobile test suite and flutter analyze pass. Existing thread-summary, reply-overlay and thread-reference tests cover the unchanged results.

On the iPhone 12 mini (profile build, Builderlab), same scripted run on main and on this branch: open three threads from Activity, back out after each.

Dart CPU in thread-reference code main this branch
First thread (not cached yet) 5 ms 2 ms
Second thread (loads the channel window) 27 ms, plus 18 ms trimming the reply overlay 3 ms, plus 2 ms
Third thread 10 ms 0 ms

The threads opened and showed the same replies in both runs, and the run covered a channel window load, live events arriving while a thread was open, and backing out to Home.

Regressions

None expected. Results are identical; the cache holds one small record per live tag list and is released with the event.

parseThreadReference ran a 64-character hex regex over every e tag each
time anything asked an event for its parent or root, and the channel
store asks many times per event: trimming the reply overlay on every live
event, and reconciling a fetched page, which rebuilt the whole cached
reply set once per row. Keep the parsed reference per tag list in an
Expando, and index cached replies by root once per page reconcile.
