Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by reading capa/features/extractors/binja/helpers.py around line 46 and determine which name-demangling path is being targeted. Profile that path to establish a baseline, then verify that the optimization preserves demangling behavior and produces a measurable performance improvement.
