## 2025-02-18 - Regex Pre-compilation in Hot Paths
**Learning:** Re-compiling regexes inside a frequently called function (like `latex_escape` which runs for every string) creates significant overhead. Pre-compiling them at module level yielded a ~3.2x speedup.
**Action:** Always look for regex compilations inside loops or frequently called functions and move them to module level constants.

## 2024-05-30 - Regex Pre-compilation in Job Parser
**Learning:** Compiling regex patterns in hot paths like `_extract_salary_from_text` and `_extract_job_type` incurs overhead. Replacing `re.search()` inside loops with pre-compiled `re.compile()` module-level lists yields a measurable speedup (~1.5x) when parsing many text blocks.
**Action:** Always pre-compile regex patterns at the module level when they are used inside loops or frequently executed extraction methods.
