Round 3 of benchmark-gated optimizations (benches/ROUND3.md; every change
gated by a before/after benchmark — an AFTER that did not beat its BEFORE
was to be rolled back; none needed it. Equivalence gates assert identical
row sequences / byte-identical output on every behavior-preserving rewrite):
DB hot paths (local PG16, EXPLAIN-verified):
- Web-UI listing (list_resources_paged): cursor pushed INSIDE the
folders/files UNION-ALL branches as sargable row-value comparisons with
per-branch ORDER/LIMIT + two partial expression indexes
(folder_id, LOWER(name), id). 20k-entry folder: 26.6 -> 1.3 ms/page
(19.5x); other sort modes at parity or better. New migration
20260918000000. [benches/LISTING-KEYSET.md section in ROUND3]
- Photos timeline (list_media_files): per-drive CROSS JOIN LATERAL top-N
on the timeline index, joins moved above the top-N. 50k-photo library:
97.4 -> 1.6 ms/page (55.7x). The old "LIMIT stops the scan early"
comment was refuted by EXPLAIN.
- PROPFIND sub-folders (both DAV surfaces): keyset list_folders_batch off
idx_folders_unique_name replaces COUNT(*) OVER() + LIMIT/OFFSET
(5k dirs: 79.7 -> 17.9 ms full walk, 4.5x).
Concurrency:
- Basic-auth cache single-flight (moka try_get_with): 8 concurrent DAV
connections at TTL expiry paid 8 Argon2id runs (2.6 s CPU + 8x64 MiB);
now 1 (300 ms). Failed verifications remain uncached.
- CachedBlobBackend per-hash single-flight + unique tmp names: 16
concurrent cold readers = 16 full remote downloads racing truncating
writes on ONE deterministic .tmp (corruptible cache); now 1 download
(16x less egress, 2.8x wall on a shared link) and torn files can never
be renamed into the cache.
I/O and allocations:
- Chunk-assembly reads 64K -> 512K buffers (2.3x, 8x fewer syscalls);
chunk-spool writes via BufWriter 512K (5.6x, 32x fewer syscalls).
- S3/Azure put_blob_from_bytes_unsynced overrides: dedup settle no longer
pays a HEAD probe per new chunk (2 RTT -> 1, 1.8x); Azure stops copying
every chunk (Bytes -> Body, -0.44 ms - 4 MiB alloc per 4 MiB chunk).
- Entity->DTO mapping: Arc<str> interning of closed-set display fields +
common MIMEs, 1-alloc etag/size formatting, FolderDto moves instead of
clones. File row: 11 -> 4 allocs; folder row: 11.8 -> 1 (2.1x faster).
- CardDAV REPORT: deleted dead per-contact vCard pre-generation and the
O(N^2) uid scan whose result was discarded (5k contacts: 55.7 -> 5.7 ms,
9.8x); byte-identical XML asserted.
- Search-results cache: byte weigher + 32 MiB budget
(OXICLOUD_SEARCH_CACHE_MAX_BYTES) replaces the 1000-ENTRY cap that let
~300 MiB of enriched rows sit in RSS; read latency parity.
- Dropped aws-config + aws-smithy-types (zero references; -82 dep-graph
nodes, three SDK stacks gone from every build). tokio "process" is now
an explicit feature (was enabled transitively by aws-config).
Frontend:
- Cached Intl.DateTimeFormat keyed by (locale, options) in formatDate and
4 sibling callsites: 20k dates 2612 -> 51 ms (51.6x); vitest gate
asserts output identity across locales and a 3x floor.
Validation: cargo fmt + clippy --all-features --all-targets -D warnings
clean; 518 unit + 548 integration-cfg tests green; new-shape endpoints
smoke-tested end-to-end over HTTP (all 5 listing sort modes with cursor
walks, WebDAV PROPFIND Depth-1, photos timeline, Basic-auth DAV login);
frontend npm run check clean, new vitest gates green.

- add resource kind filter (file, folder, drive) in shared section (localStorage stored)
- add user preferences serverside store
- add client side dotfile filter (show/hide dotfiles) (user perf stored, default: dotfiles are shown)
for security trashed dotfile are always displayed
protection added: if a folder has only hidden items, a notification invite user to display it
if a user rename or create a hidden item, a notification tells it to user
Add an end-to-end and unit test suite for the SvelteKit frontend:
- Playwright e2e specs (tests/e2e/spa) with a throwaway container stack,
codegen scenarios, and an Istanbul-based coverage report pipeline.
- Vitest unit tests across API endpoints, components, stores and composables.
- `data-testid` hooks on interactive elements (AppShell, FileViewer,
ShareDialog, search, photos, files breadcrumbs, login/Nextcloud flows,
public share pages) so the e2e suite can target them deterministically.
- Serve the SPA app-shell CSP from a <meta> policy (svelte.config.js) plus a
middleware that skips the CSP header on HTML; move the Nextcloud Login Flow
v2 grant page to the SvelteKit /nextcloud/login route.
- `just front-codegen` recipe and start-server-spa.sh harness.
Make the test environment robust and consistent:
- Install a deterministic in-memory localStorage/sessionStorage in the Vitest
setup so storage behaves identically across Node versions (Node 26 ships a
native Web Storage global that otherwise shadows jsdom's).
- Pin devenv to Node 26 + PostgreSQL 18 and pin every CI job to Node 26.3.0
so the dev shell and CI run the same toolchain versions.
Repair the API/WebDAV (hurl) suite, which had drifted from the backend:
- Migrate the removed `/api/folders/{id}/listing` endpoint to `/resources`
(cursor-paginated `{items:[{resource_type,resource}]}` shape) across the
batch-copy, grants, nested-group, and WebDAV NC tests + the dav_helpers
wipe routine.
- Stop photos_etag from uploading the dedup-tracked fixture so the dedup
blob-lifecycle test can own its content-addressed blob exclusively.
- dedup_create now asserts the idempotent same-content re-upload (201 +
existing file id) instead of the stale 409 expectation.
Generated coverage reports, nyc output and the e2e server runtime data dir
are gitignored rather than committed.
Checkpoint of the in-progress frontend toolchain work (Vite pinned to ^6 after
the 7/8 rolldown build break, eslint-plugin-svelte v3 navigation/reactivity
fixes, CI/Dockerfile/manifest updates) together with three UI performance
optimizations (verified on the Vite 6 build):
- Critical CSS: move auth.css/music.css off the global path into their route
chunks (login/device/nextcloud-login, music) -- -25% gzipped critical CSS
(~5.4 KB) on every non-auth/non-music page load.
- relativeTimeAgo: cache the Intl.RelativeTimeFormat (was rebuilt per call, once
per row per render) -- 22.7x faster date formatting in large lists.
- Virtualize search results and grouped trash (list view) via VirtualList -- DOM
rows mounted stay ~constant (~27) instead of O(N) (94.6% fewer for 500 hits).

Backend — tail latency & throughput:
- FileContentCache, image transcode, and search now use moka single-flight
(try_get_with / get_or_load) so N concurrent misses for the same key
collapse to one disk read / transcode / query instead of a thundering herd.
Microbenchmark (128 concurrent on one hot key): 128 loads / p99 ~1023ms
before vs 1 load / p99 ~32ms after.
- DB: configurable per-statement timeout on the primary pool
(OXICLOUD_DB_STATEMENT_TIMEOUT_SECS, default 30; maintenance pool exempt) so
a runaway query can't pin a connection and starve the pool.
- DB: background pool-saturation monitor
(OXICLOUD_DB_POOL_MONITOR_INTERVAL_SECS) that WARNs as the primary pool nears
exhaustion — the early signal before tail latency cliffs.
- mimalloc: set MIMALLOC_PURGE_DELAY=0 (Dockerfile + compose) so freed pages
return to the OS and RSS tracks the live working set; benchmarked on
musl/aarch64 at ~400MB reclaimed vs 0MB with the default.
Frontend — UI / i18n fixes:
- i18n: fix literal "{{count}}" and "{{percentage}}/{{used}}/{{total}}" in the
selection toolbar and storage line — the call sites passed param names that
didn't match the locale placeholders; unify on `count` and pass the storage
template its params. Add es files.selected_count.
- sidebar: hide the drive picker when there's only one drive (the redundant
"Personal" row); remove the coloured left accent on the active nav item.
- logo: stop clipping the cloud's left bulge — viewBox recentred on the cloud's
true bbox with proportional SVG size so it keeps the same rendered scale.
- user menu: drop the default <a> underline on the link rows.

Defer loading components that are off the initial render path until they
are first needed, keeping them out of the bundle that loads on page entry.
- Add `lazyComponent` composable: a tiny rune-based holder that dynamic-
imports a component on first `load()` and exposes it for `{@const}`
rendering, with the component type inferred from the module so prop/
binding type-checking stays intact.
- CommandPalette: loaded on the first Cmd/Ctrl+K and mounted open via a
new `autoOpen` prop. It was previously imported by AppShell, i.e. in the
initial chunk of every authenticated route (~27 KB). AppShell now owns
the shortcut that triggers the load.
- FileViewer + WopiEditor: loaded when a preview/editor first opens, across
files, recent, favorites and shared-with-me.
- PhotoLightbox / PlacesMap / PeopleView: loaded on first lightbox open or
when the places/people tab is selected (the latter also defers maplibre).
Once loaded a component stays mounted and behaves exactly as before, so
behavior is unchanged on the second use onward.
- About modal overlay used a raw z-index: 1200, below the semantic
--z-modal (3000)/--z-toast (4000) layers, so token-based surfaces would
cover it. Consume var(--z-modal) instead.
- .btn-primary and .search-button sit on the accent gradient but coloured
their text with --color-danger-text (only correct by coincidence, #fff).
Use the purpose-built --color-on-accent so retinting danger can't break
them. The other --color-danger-text uses are white-on-red and stay.
- --color-item-hover-blue/--color-item-hover-sky were light-only literals
that would read wrong in dark mode; wrap them in light-dark().

The per-section icon colours used :nth-child(1..6), but the nav grew to 8
items (files, shared, shared-with-me, recent, favorites, photos, music,
trash). The colours had drifted out of sync with their labels, and music
and trash got no colour at all.
Map each item's colour off a stable `data-section` key instead, covering
all eight sections with distinct curated calendar-dot hues (sibling blues
for the two share directions, purple for music, red for trash). Reordering
or adding nav items can no longer desync the colours.

Two related parity gaps from the VanillaJS → Svelte migration (issue #500):
internal-vs-external users weren't badged, and external users in a share's
member list rendered as a bare UUID with a static icon — no avatar, no email.
Both share one root cause: there was no shared user vignette and no resolver
for non-directory (external) users (the system address book lists internal
users only, and ShareDialog hardcoded isExternal=false).
- lib/api/endpoints/users.ts: resolveUser(id) — cached GET /api/users/{id}
(the authenticated per-user profile lookup) → {name, email, image,
isExternal}; returns null when the profile isn't visible so callers keep
their fallback label.
- lib/components/UserVignette.svelte: reusable identity chip — avatar (photo
or coloured initials), name, email, and a building-circle-xmark badge for
external users; resolves lazily and falls back to a caller-supplied label.
- lib/utils/avatar.ts: userInitials() + avatarColorIndex() extracted from
AppShell (now shared by both — no duplicated logic) so vignette and account
button render identically.
- ShareDialog: user member rows now render <UserVignette>; groups keep their
icon+label. Drops the dead hardcoded isExternal.
Backend already exposes everything (UserDto.email/image/is_external via
GET /api/users/{id}); no backend change. Frontend gate green (svelte-check
0/0, eslint, stylelint, prettier) + 47 Vitest.
