Description

Currently entire file is loaded into memory for every operation. For large presentations (100+ slides, embedded video), this can be slow.

Consider:

  • lazy loading (read only requested slides)
  • streaming export for markdown/JSON
  • caching layer for frequently accessed presentations
  • incremental operations

Business value: handle enterprise-scale decks.

Complexity: High. Note: May not be necessary until real-world large files become a problem — create benchmarks first.

Research direction

No file or test is named. Start by creating benchmarks for large presentations, including embedded video and export operations, then profile the current whole-file loading behavior. Done means the benchmark results establish whether optimization is needed and the project has a decided scope and acceptance criteria for the chosen approach.
